Abstract: A process for the preparation of an asphalt and polymer composition in which a minor amount of polymer component is subjected to a crosslinking. An asphalt base material is heated in a mixing chamber at a temperature sufficient to melt the asphalt and allow stirring of the asphalt within the chamber. A thermoplastic elastomer is added to the chamber in an amount not greater than 12 wt. %. While the asphalt elastomer formulation is stirred, a crosslinking agent is added in an amount effective to crosslink the thermoplastic elastomer. The crosslinking agent formulation comprises at least two components. One component is a thiopolymer incorporating organic sulfur prepared by the reaction of 6-tertiary butyl cresol and sulfur dichloride which reacts to produce a reaction product comprising 4,4-thiobis(6-tertiary butyl-m-cresol) and the thiopolymer, followed by subsequent separation of the 4,4-thiobis(6-tertiary-butyl-m-cresol) from the thiopolymer product. The second crosslinking component comprises a source of sulfur to crosslink the thermoplastic elastomer. The second crosslinking component may be selected from the group consisting of elemental sulfur, polythiomorpholine, specifically dithiodimorpholine, zinc-2-mercaptothiazole and mixtures thereof

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for preparing an asphalt and thermoplastic elastomer composition. The process comprises heating an asphalt cut in a stirred tank to a temperature sufficient to allow the stirring of the asphalt in the tank. A thermoplastic elastomer or rubber is added to the asphalt while continuing to stir the asphalt. The mixture is stirred at a speed and for a period of time sufficient to increase the distribution of the elastomer into the asphalt. The stirring speed is reduced and the temperature is increased to add an oil dispersion or aqueous emulsion of crosslinking agents to the tank. Stirring is continued for a period of time sufficient to improve the distribution of the crosslinking agent dispersion in the asphalt.

Abstract: A bipolar micro-power rail-to-rail operational amplifier has a low complexity output stage that provides a high ratio of load current to no load idle current. The output stage includes first and second output transistors of opposite conductivities whose current circuits are connected in series at the output terminal between high and low voltage supplies. A control transistor responds to the drive voltage at its base by modulating the base-emitter voltages of the first output transistor and a gain transistor in opposite directions to modulate their respective output and gain currents. A regenerative current source supplies current to the gain transistor by returning the gain current in a regenerative feedback loop to its emitter so that the current source idles at a low gain current but is capable of supplying much higher gain currents. A voltage element responds to the gain current by applying a control voltage to the base of the second output transistor so that the output transistors' output currents are unbalanced thereby generating an output current at the output terminal.

Abstract: A differential input circuit has an input stage with a pair of differentially biased input transistors connected to supply current through respective load impedances, and a gain stage with a second pair of transistors connected to supply additional currents to the load impedances to keep the impedance currents constant over variations in the input voltage levels. A cross-coupled cascode circuit connected between the gain stage transistors and the load impedances compensates for inaccuracies in the load impedance currents which occur during dynamic operation of the circuit, and thus enhances gain, linearity and the current transfer efficiency between the two stages.
