High-Temperature Performance Evaluation of Asphaltenes-Modified Asphalt Binders

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Asphalt binder comprises four main fractions—asphaltenes (A), saturates (S), aromatics (A), and resins (R)—referred to as “SARA”. Asphaltenes plays an important role in determining the linear viscoelastic behavior of asphalt binders.

EVALUATION OF AN HPHT UNIT COUPLED WITH NIR PROBE TO DETERMINE ASPHALTENES PRECIPITATION ONSET UNDER DIFFERENT PRESSURES

open access: yesRevista Fuentes El Reventón Energético, 2023
Asphaltenes are characterized as the crude oil fraction with the highest molar mass and polarity, presetting mainly (poly) aromatic groups. The flocculation and deposition of asphaltenes causes large losses to the oil industry.
