Abstract: A washable aqueous ink composition having a viscosity of from about 1.0 to about 6.0 centipoises and containing from about 10 to about 50% by weight of one or more polymeric colorants of the formula: ##STR1## wherein: X is a polar group such as sulfonic acids, sulfonic acid salts, sulfonamides, sulfonates or the like;R is alkylene; Y is H, alkanoyl, carbamoyl, or the like;R.sub.1 is nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, or a sulfur-containing divalent linking group;a is an integer of from six to about forty;b and c are each independently selected from one or two;d is an integer of from one to four; the product of (a) (b) (c) is an integer of from 6 to about 40;and CHROM is a chromophore such as nitro, nitroso, monoaxo, disazo and trisazo, diarylmethane, triarylmethane, xanthane, acridine, methine, thiazole, indamine, azine, oxazine, or anthraquinone, wherein the (RO).sub.a moiety is bonded to a carbocyclic aromatic ring of the (CHROM) through R.sub.1.

Abstract: Asphalt compositions are improved by incorporating therein the reaction produce of (a) a phosphorus-containing compound, (b) an amine or polyamine and (c) a carbonyl-containing compound as an anti-stripping agent. These asphalt compositions are useful as a pavement material by blending with an aggregate.
