摘要:
The present invention provides for a method of making storage stable road paving binders by blending a minor amount of a polymer having at least one diene monomer with a major amount of asphalt containing at least 0.3% by weight of total nitrogen at an elevated temperature such that the components are sufficiently fluid to blend; treating the asphalt-polymer blend using not more than 250 meq of a sulfonating agent per 100 g of asphalt-polymer blend to introduce the corresponding acid functionality into the blend; maintaining the sulfonated asphalt-polymer blend at a sufficiently elevated temperature and stripping the sulfonated blend with sufficient chemically unreactive gas to remove a major fraction of the acid functionality introduced by sulfonation. The invention also provides for the compositions made by the process. These are useful as binders in road paving applications.

The present invention provides a method of making storage-stable road paving binders by blending a minor amount of an unsaturated polymer (e.g., having at least one diene monomer) with a major amount of asphalt at an elevated temperature such that the components are sufficiently fluid to blend; treating the asphalt-polymer blend with a sulfonating agent; and stripping the treated asphalt-polymer blend at an elevated temperature with sufficient stripping gas to remove strippable sulfur moieties and to stabilize the resulting stripped, treated blend. The invention also provides asphaltic compositions made by the method. The asphaltic compositions are useful as binders in road paving applications.
摘要:
Paving binders, especially hot mix paving mixtures, having excellent storage stability, reduced binder runoff, and high temperature viscosity are formed by adding a copolymer of ethylene with an alkyl acrylate or vinyl acetate and a neutralized sulfonated polymer to the asphalt. Preferably, the alkyl acrylate is methyl acrylate and the neutralized sulfonated polymer is a terpolymer of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer.

Disclosed in this invention are novel road paving asphaltic compositions having improved viscoelastic properties and storage stability and unexpected phase compatibility. They contain neutralized mixtures of oxidized asphalt and an acid functionalized polymer, which polymer is selected from the group consisting of sulfonated EPDM, sulfonated styrene-butadiene, and acrylic acid terpolymers, in an amount that is sufficient to result in an asphaltic composition having a softening point greater about 55.degree. C. and a viscosity in the range from about 150 cPs to 2000 cPs or from about 3000 cPs to about 8000 cPs at 135.degree. C. and effective to allow the formation of one continuous phase or two interdispersed phases that do not segregate on standing at elevated temperatures. The basic neutralizing agent used in these compositions contain cations having a valence of from +1 to +3, preferably +2. The invention also relates to the products produced by the process and method of making the compositions. The compositions can be used as a binder in paving applications, particularly as a binder in dense graded and in open graded hot mix pavements.
摘要:
This invention provides for novel road paving binder compositions and the method of making them. One embodiment is a road paving binder composition of a storage stable blend of a sulfonated, unhydrogenated random copolymer of styrene and butadiene having a sulfonation level of from 1 to 100 meq S0.sub.3 H/100 g of polymer and a sulfonated asphalt. Another is a method of making a storage stable polymer modified asphalt composition by combining a sulfonated unhydrogenated random styrene butadiene copolymer having a sulfonation level of from about 1 to 100 meq S0.sub.3 H per 100 g of polymer and a sulfonated asphalt at a temperature of at least about 180.degree. C. to produce a storage stable polymer modified asphalt. Yet another is a method of making a storage stable polymer modified asphalt by combining a sulfonated unhydrogenated random styrene and butadiene copolymer having a sulfonation level of from about 1 to 100 meq S0.sub.3 H/100 g of polymer, and unsulfonated asphalt and a basic neutralizing agent at a temperature of from about 170.degree. C. to 185.degree. C. to produce a storage stable polymer modified asphalt. Still another is a method for making a storage stable road paving composition by cosulfonation of a blend of unhydrogenated random styrene-butadiene copolymer and an asphalt at 180.degree.-210.degree. C. The novel road paving asphaltic compositions have enhanced viscoelasticity and storage stability. The compositions can be used as binders in road paving applications. Sulfonated copolymers of random styrene-isoprene may be substituted for the sulfonated copolymers of styrene-butadiene herein.

Carbonaceous solids slurried in an aqueous solution, which preferably contains catalyst constituents having gasification activity, are dried by contacting the slurry with superheated steam in a fluid bed slurry dryer and the resultant dried solids are subsequently gasified with steam generated in the dryer.

F. and about 1500.degree. F. and a pressure in excess of about 100 psia to produce an effluent or raw product gas consisting essentially of equilibrium quantities, at reaction temperature and pressure, of methane, steam, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and hydrogen; recovering at least a portion of the effluent or raw product gas from the gasifier as an intermediate Btu product gas; contacting a carbon-containing material with steam in a steam reforming zone under conditions such that at least a portion of the carbon-containing material reacts with the steam to produce carbon monoxide and hydrogen; and passing the effluent from the reforming zone into the gasifier, thereby supplying the added hydrogen and carbon monoxide required in the gasifier.

摘要:
In a coal gasification operation or similar process carried out in the presence of an alkali metal-containing catalyst wherein spent solids containing ash and alkali metal catalyst residues are produced, alkali metal constituents are recovered from the spent solids by first removing magnetic constituents from the solids, contacting the solid particles from which magnetic constituents have been separated with an acid solution to extract alkali metal constituents from the solids and produce a spent acid solution enriched in alkali metal salts, raising the pH of the enriched solution sufficiently to precipitate aluminum from the solution as aluminum hydroxide, heating the remaining solution to precipitate silicon compounds, and recovering an enriched alkali metal solution from which aluminum and silicon compounds have been removed. This process permits the effective recovery of alkali metal catalyst constituents, eliminates iron compounds and other inactive constituents which may otherwise tend to build up in the catalyst system, and makes possible the recovery of aluminum as a valuable by-product of the process.
