    摘要: A kit for use in storm-proofing a structure may include a cartridge comprising an injectable rubber caulk or a malleable rubber paste, a container comprising a viscous liquid rubber composition, a roll comprising a rubberized adhesive tape, a can comprising a sprayable aerosol-based rubberized liquid, a caulking gun configured to engage and dispense contents of the cartridge, a paintbrush, a gap filler tool, a pair of gloves, a pair of safety goggles, and printed instructions. Each component may be combined into a unitary packaging assembly. The injectable rubber caulk, the malleable rubber paste, the viscous liquid rubber composition, the rubberized adhesive tape, and the sprayable aerosol-based rubberized liquid may be safely removed after application and use, or after a storm or natural event has subsided.

    摘要: A bitumen cutback composition is described substantially comprising Compound A with a formula:


    R1-X—R2  [COMPOUND A]

    where R1 is alkyl or phenyl hydrocarbon group; X is an O—C═O group; and R2 is a C1-C13 hydrocarbon chain branched or non-branched, with none, one, or more than one, oxygen interruption(s).
    The bitumen cutback composition may comprise: alkyl esters of fatty acids, esters of trihydroxy alcohols, mono ester, or di, or tri, hydroxy alcohols, phenyl alkyl esters, phenoxy alcohols and their esters, ether alcohols and their esters, and combinations thereof. Cutback bitumen mixtures are described comprising bitumen; and bitumen cutback composition. The cutback bitumen mixtures may be configured as a hot mix composition; a cold mix composition; or an emulsion, the emulsion further comprising an aqueous compound. Methods of temporarily reducing a viscosity of bitumen and methods of applying bitumen to a substrate are also described.
