Abstract:
The main objectives of the investigations
reported in the present thesis are the following: (1)
to find out some industrial wastes as cheaper additives
to augment the air-blowing polymerization process
of bitumen. This will bring down the cost of production
of industrial bitumen which can be applied for the
manufacture of bitumenous paints, roofing and flooring
materials etc. (2) to find out suitable promoters
for the above additives. This will bring down the
consumption of the additives (3) to help in the
industrial pollution control (4) to investigate the
usefulness of the industrial bitumen produced in the
production of bituminous paints (5) to find out thekinetic parameters of the reactions invovled with
different additives. This is essential for the design,
construction and operation of new industrial bitumen
plants using the additives investigated. This will
also enable us to establish the mechanism of the
reactions involved in the process
