Abstract

Aqueous base- or acid-stabilized emulsions are provided for use on a pavement surface, and for use in an aqueous priming base emulsion that is used for priming a pavement surface. Any of the emulsions can be applied to a pavement surface to form a primed pavement surface, and then cured so that the pavement is available for use in preparing a pavement.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An aqueous base-stabilized emulsion for use in a priming base material, the aqueous base-stabilized emulsion comprising:
from about 20 wt. % to about 60 wt. % of a polyamide;
from about 0.1 wt. % to about 15 wt. % of an anionic emulsifier;
from about 1 wt. % to about 25 wt. % of a solvent; and
from about 0.001 wt. % to about 5 wt. % of a base; and
from about 30 to about 65 wt. % water,
wherein the polyamide comprises a condensation reaction product of an amine and a carboxylic acid or an ester or anhydride thereof or an acyl halide; based on the total weight of the aqueous base-stabilized emulsion.

2. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 1 , wherein the amine comprises a polyamine, an amino carboxylic acid, an amino alcohol, or any combination thereof.

3. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 1 , wherein the amine comprises a polyethyleneimine, diethylenetriamine, ethylenediamine, triethylenetetramine, tetraethylene pentamine, pentaethylene hexamine, aminoethylpiperazine, or any combination thereof.

4. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 3 , wherein the amine comprises the polyethyleneimine.

5. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 4 , wherein the polyethyleneimine comprises an ethylenediamine-ethyleneimine polymer.

6. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 1 , wherein the anionic emulsifier comprises an alpha olefin sulfonate, an alkyl benzene sulfonate, an alkyl ether sulfonate, an alkyl sulfonate, an alkyl phenyl ether disulfonate, an alkyl aryl sulfonate, a sulfonated fatty acid ester, a fatty alcohol sulfate, a fatty alcohol ether sulfate, a sulfated alkylphenol, an alkyl sulfate, an alkyl ether sulfate, a fatty alcohol phosphate monoester, a fatty alcohol phosphate diester, a fatty alcohol ether phosphate monoester, a fatty alcohol ether phosphate diester, an alkyl phosphate ester, a carboxylic acid salt, an ether of a hydroxycarboxylic acid, a sulfosuccinate, an alkyl sulfosuccinate, a sulfosuccinamate, an alkyl phosphate, or any combination thereof.

7. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 6 , wherein the anionic emulsifier comprises an alpha olefin sulfonate.

8. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 1 , wherein the base comprises potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide.

9. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 1 , wherein the aqueous base-stabilized emulsion comprises from about 30 to about 50 wt. % of the polyamide, from about 0.3 to about 10 wt. % of the anionic emulsifier, from about 3 to about 20 wt. % of the solvent, from about 0.01 to about 3.0 wt. % of the base, and from about 35 to about 60 wt. % water, based on the total weight of the aqueous base-stabilized emulsion.

10. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 1 , wherein the aqueous base-stabilized emulsion comprises from about 35 to about 45 wt. % of the polyamide, from about 0.5 to about 5 wt. % of the anionic emulsifier, from about 5 to about 15 wt. % of the solvent, from about 0.1 to about 1.0 wt. % of the base, and from about 40 to about 55 wt. % water, based on the total weight of the aqueous base-stabilized emulsion.

11. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 1 , further comprising a black pigment or dye.

12. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 11 , wherein the black pigment or dye comprises carbon black, aniline black, shungite, lamp black, vine black, bone black, graphite, mars black, cobalt black, manganese black, mineral black, copper chromite black, acetylene black, antimony black, hartshorn black, vantablack, or any combination thereof.

13. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 1 , wherein the carboxylic acid of the carboxylic acid or ester or anhydride thereof comprises a tall oil fatty acid, a tall oil pitch, a crude tall oil, a soybean oil, oleic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, stearidonic acid, linolelaidic acid, vaccenic acid, elaidic acid, or any combination thereof.

14. The aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 1 , wherein the solvent comprises heavy aromatic naphtha, kerosene, benzene, xylene, toluene, pentane, hexane, cyclohexane, methylcyclohexane, heptane, decane, dodecane, diesel, biodiesel, or any combination thereof.

15. A method of priming a pavement surface, the method comprising:
applying the aqueous base-stabilized emulsion of claim 1 to a pavement surface to form a primed pavement surface; and curing the primed pavement surface.
