摘要:
Methods of preparing a cross-linked, polymer-modified asphalt is provided. The method involves adding a crosslinking agent to asphalt prior to the addition of a crosslinkable polymer and an acid. Asphalt prepared by the disclosed methods exhibit improved properties such as properties measured by the Multiple Stress Creep Recovery (MSCR) test.

摘要:
A multi-layer oxygen pump having a one-piece, monolithic ceramic structure affords high oxygen production per unit weight and volume and is thus particularly adapted for use as a portable oxygen supply. The oxygen pump is comprised of a large number of small cells on the order of 1-2 millimeters in diameter which form the walls of the pump and which are comprised of thin, i.e., 25-50 micrometers, ceramic layers of cell components. The cell components include an air electrode, an oxygen electrode, an electrolyte and interconnection materials. The cell walls form the passages for input air and for exhausting the oxygen which is transferred from a relatively dilute gaseous mixture to a higher concentration by applying a DC voltage across the electrodes so as to ionize the oxygen at the air electrode, whereupon the ionized oxygen travels through the electrolyte and is converted to oxygen gas at the oxygen electrode.
