  • Polymer-modified asphalt compositions
    Patent number: 9187645
    Abstract: A modified-asphalt composition prepared by introducing a diene end-capped block copolymer with a molten asphalt composition, where the block copolymer is defined by the formula ?-(D-V-d)X where each D is independently a polydiene block, each V is independently a vinyl aromatic block, each d is a polydiene end cap, ? is a coupling moiety, and x is an integer from 2 to 10.
    Type: Grant

  • Apparatus and method for minimizing arm fatigue of a videographer
    Patent number: 7691075
    Abstract: The arm support bridge 11 is then uniformly bent outward away from the common lateral plane of the main panel 10 by applying a thermal press to the arm support bridge 11. The arm support bridge 11 is bent outward at acute angle of 20 to 40 degrees relative to the common lateral plane of the main panel 5 such that the underarm support 13 is disposed anterior of a longitudinal centerline of the main panel 5 and cantilevered from the main panel 10 with the arm support bridge 11.
