  • Warm mix paving composition w/lubricating antistrip additive
    Patent number: 10214646
    Abstract: The present invention provides an asphalt paving composition including an essentially water-free, non-foamed warm mix asphalt binder composition modified with lubricating antistrip additives that can be mixed with uncompacted aggregate to provide a warm mix paving composition of the aggregate adequately coated with the essentially water-free, non-foamed binder and lubricating antistrip additive. This warm mix paving composition may be mixed at temperatures of 280° F. or lower and may be compacted at temperatures of 260° F. or lower that are below mixing and compacting temperatures of similar paving compositions that do not contain the disclosed lubricating antistrip additives.

  • Processing bituminous mixtures for paving at reduced temperatures
    Patent number: 9175446
    Abstract: Bituminous paving mixtures containing lubricating agents or additives may be prepared at hot mix temperatures and cooled, paved and compacted at temperatures 10-55° C. lower than the hot mix temperatures. The increased temperature range between the hot mix temperatures and the paving and compacting temperatures is facilitated by the improved compacting properties of the paving mixture when it includes the lubricating agents or additives.
