Abstract

A shingle coating asphalt composition is provided that is produced from a paving grade asphalt. The shingle coating asphalt composition comprise a paving grade asphalt that has been overblown to achieve a first penetration value that is at or below about 15 dmm and a first softening point that is at least about 210° F. The shingle coating composition may further include an additive that is included in an amount to achieve a second softening point that is less than about 230° F. and a second penetration value that is between about 15 and 20 dmm. The additive may comprise at least one ester. The inventive shingle coating asphalt composition may be thermally stable at processing temperatures of at least 450° F.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A thermally stable shingle coating composition for making asphalt-coated shingles, the thermally stable single coating composition comprising:
an over-blown paving grade asphalt having a first penetration value that is at or below 15 dmm and a first softening point that is at least 210° F.; and
an additive included in an amount from 8 to 20 wt. based on the total weight of the shingle coating composition,
wherein the shingle coating composition has a second softening point that is less than 230° F. and a second penetration value that is between 15 and 20 dmm,
wherein the additive comprises a vegetable oil selected from the group consisting of corn oil, castor oil, soybean oil, coconut oil, and tall oil,
wherein the shingle coating composition is thermally stable at processing temperatures of at least 450° F., and
wherein the vegetable oil is modified by oxidation or thermolysis to a molecular weight of 900 to 5000.

2. The shingle coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the shingle coating composition has a melt viscosity at 400° F. below about 450 cps.

3. The shingle coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the shingle coating composition further includes at least one secondary additive comprising one or more of sulfur, polyphosphoric acid, ferric chloride, waxes of animal or plant origin, hydrocarbon wax, elastomers, plastomers, surfactants, lime, aluminosilicates, resin, and zeolite.

4. The shingle coating composition of claim 3 , wherein the secondary additive is included in an amount from 0.25 10 wt. %, based on the total weight of the shingle coating composition.

5. The shingle coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the second softening point is between 195° F. to 230° F.

6. The shingle coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the shingle coating composition has a stain index less than 10.

7. The shingle coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the additive has an iodine value from 50 to 115.

8. The shingle coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the additive is included in an amount from 10 to 20 wt. %, based on the total weight of the shingle coating composition.
