Description
~S38S6 sackqround of the Invention (1) Field of the Invention This invention relates to improvements in oil-in-water anionic bituminous emulsions. More particularly, this invention relates to the production of oil-in-water anionic bituminous emulsions with the aid of a particular anionic emulsifying agent comprising an alkali metal salt of an alkali lignin and an ethylene oxide adduct of an alkyl phenol.
(2) The Prior Art Aggregates for road building are generally coated with suitable asphalt mixes which include bitumens which affect the coating of the aggregates. The ag~regates used are, of course, sand, gravel and other suitable and well known aggregates.
To prevent the emulsion from leaving the aggregate known as "stripping", the asphalt mixes are provided with additives which are usually of either cationic or anionic surfactants. Formulators are continuously attempting to use more effective surfactants of both the cationic and anionic varieties. Although satisfactory results can be obtained with certa:in types of both surfactants, certain deficiencies both as to performance and pr ce leave room for considerable ~ ' 1~3~56 advancement in this field.
The use of lignin-type materials, specifically lignin amines for use in anionic bituminous emulsions, are disclosed in U. S. Patent 3,123,569 to M. J. Borgfeldt.
Further, it is aLso known to use ethers formed from ethylene oxide and nonyl phenol as surfactants in bituminous emulsions as disclosed in U. S. Patent 3,366,500 to Kracauer. However, no one has shown the advantages obtained by the use of an ethylene oxide adduct of nonyl phenol together with the particular lignin materials of this invention in anionic bituminous emulsions.
Accordingly, it is a general object of the present invention to provide an anionic emulsion for coating aggre-gates for road building and the like.
Another object o~ the present invention is to provide an anionic bituminous emulsion for coating aggregates for road building and the like which has universal action, that is, it can be used for alL different types of asphalt mixes for the coating of all different types of aggregate.
Other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the foregoing detailed description of the invention.

~a3s~8~i6 emulsion of bitumen as the disperse phase, from about 0O1%
to about 10.0% by weight of an anionic emulsifier comprising, an alkali metal salt of an alkali lignin and an ethylene oxide adduct of alkyl phenol in a weight ratio of 10:1 to 1:10 of lignin to alkyL phenol adduct, with the remainder being water as the continous phase. Additionally, improved pumping times are obtained with the addition of from 1% to 10% by weight of sodium borate.
Detailed Description of the Invention The anionic emulsifier used in the continuous phase of the oil-in-water emulsions of this invention comprises, a mixture of an alkali metal salt of an alkali lignin and ether formed from ethylene oxide and alkyl phenol in a weight ratio of from 10:1 to 1:10 of lignin to alkyl phenol adduct.
Any of the alkali lignins may be employed in the anionic emulsifier. These lignins are all derived by an alkaline digestion of lignocellulose material. Most commonly they are obtained as by-products from alkaline processes of paper making where sodium hydroxide alone or in combination with sodium sulfide is employed. These lignins are generally referred to as soda and kraft or sulfate lignins after the pulping process used. Such alkali lignins should be employed in the emulsifier in the alkali metal salt form such as sodium, potassium or lithium. During alkaline pulping, the lignin is dissolved in the pulping liquor, known as black liquor, and the lignin is conventionally recovered therefrom by acid precipitation. Methods of recovering lignin from , ~5;~85~; 1 black liquor are well known, and two of such methods are set forth in U. S. Patents 3,048,576 and 2,997,466. Depending upon precipitation conditions, precipitated lignin may be in the form of free acid lignin or a lignin salt. If lignin is precipitated at a pH of about 9 to 10, it is obtained in the form of a salt.
Precipitated lignin is concentrated to form a cake containing about 50% to 60% water which is then dried, gene-rally by spray drying. Lignin has been spray dried for over twenty years; and this method has produced an economical, easily handled product. Alkali metal salts of lignin are used in this invention without modification, and the sodium salt of draft pine lignin has been found to be preferred.
The other necessary portion of the anionic emulsi-fier is the adduct formed from the reaction of ethylene oxide and an alkyl phenol. Alkyl phenols are contemplated to include nonyl phenol, octyl phenol and dodecyl phenol, with nonyl phenol being preferred. The adduct may contain from 10 to 100 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of nonyl phenol, but preferably contains from 30 to 50 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of nonyl phenol.
As stated, the lignin salt and alkyl phenol adduct are in a weight ratio of 10:1 to 1:10 of lignin salt to alkyl -phenol adduct, preferably the ratio is between 7:3 and 4:6 by weight lignin salt to alkyl phenol adduct.
In preparing the bituminous emulsions of this '~
invention, an aqueous anionic emulsifying solution prepared ¦ -as described hereinbelow is intimately contacted with a 1.
1~53~356 suitable bitumen by a mixing device, such as a colloid mill, which is capable of producing a vigorous shearing action.
The bitumen content of the emulsion can range from about 30%
to about 75% by weight of the emulsion depending upon the intended use, preferably about 55% to about 65% by weight.
The anionic emulsifier is present in the final emulsion in a concentration ranging from about 0.1% to about 10.0% by weight of the emulsion, preferably about .5% to about 3.0%
by weight of the emulsion.
Additionally, it has been found desirable to add up to 10% by weight of the emulsion, preferably about 1.0% to 5.0%, of sodium borate (borax) to obtain extended pumping times.
It is also desirable to adjust the pH of the emulsion to between 10 and 12, perferably 10.5 to 11.5. When preparing the anionic emulsifier as a liquid, which may contain, for example, a 40% solids concentration, it may be desirable to add up to about 20% by weight of a lower alkyl alcohol having less than 6 carbon atoms, for example, iso-propanol, ethanol, etc., which assists in forming a stableemulsifier.
The "bitumen" used in the emulsion may be derived from Venezuela, Mid-Continent, Western and other bitumen sources and also includes, in addition to bitumen, natural asphalt, petroleum oil, still residues of paving grade, plastic residues from coal tar distillation, petroleum pitch, petroleum resins, solutions of such substances like cut-back ', I
i~53856 asphalt, and the like. Practically any asphalt with pene-tration values ranging from about 40 to about 300 may be emulsified with the aid of the anionic emulsifiers of this invention.
The practice of this invention ~may be seen in the foregoing examples wherein the anionic emulsifier was used to illustrate its advantages in an oil-in-water anionic bitumi-nous emulsion. In each of these examples, the tests were per- -formed according to ASTM D-244.
Example 1 This example shows a series of emulsions using an alkali metal salt of an alkali lignin (Indulin ~ C, a product of Westvaco Corporation, is the sodium salt of kraft pine lignin) as the lignin component in the emulsion and various nonyl phenol adducts. As will be seen in the table, a number of emulsions were prepared using varying weight ratios of the lignin salt to the ethylene oxide adduct of nonyl phenol; see Emulsion 1 and Emulsion 7 through 10 wherein the weight ratio of lignin to ethylene oxide adduct of nonyl phenol was varied between S0/50 and 80/20. Emulsions 1 through 3 show emulsions prepared with ethylene oxide adduct of nonyl phenol having various mole additions of ethylene oxide varying from 9.5 to 50 moles of adduct. Additionally, the emulsions were pre-pared at additive levels of .1% up to 1.25% by weight of the total emulsifier which was added to an asphalt, in Emulsions 1 through 3, Humble Asphalt (120/150 penetration value) and in the remaining emulsions of Venequelian Asphalt (120/150 .
` . 1C~5385i6 penetration value). Emulsion 6 was run showing the addition of borax at a 5% level. The results of these emulsions are shown in the table belo~

The emulsions were made with 120/150 penetration venezuelian asphalt using an emulsifier dosage of 1.0% at pH 11.0 and an asphalt level of 62%. The lignin used was a sodium salt of kraft pine lignin.
