[0001] TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a method for transporting and / or storing a road bitumen. The present invention also relates to the use of bitumen bread according to the invention as road binder and their use for the manufacture of asphalt. STATE OF THE ART The vast majority of bitumen is used in construction, mainly for the manufacture of road pavements or in industry, for example for roofing applications. It is generally in the form of a highly viscous black material, even solid at room temperature, which becomes fluid upon heating. In general, bitumen is stored and transported hot, in bulk, in tanker trucks or by boats at high temperatures in the range of 120 ° C to 160 ° C. However, the storage and transport of hot bitumen has certain disadvantages. On the one hand, the transport of hot bitumen in liquid form is considered dangerous and it is very framed from a regulatory point of view. This mode of transport presents no particular difficulties when the equipment and the transport infrastructures are in good condition. Otherwise, it can become problematic: if the tanker is not sufficiently insulated, the bitumen may become viscous during a trip too long. Delivery distances for bitumen are therefore limited. On the other hand, the maintenance of bitumen at high temperatures in tanks or tank trucks consumes energy. In addition, maintaining the temperature of the bitumen for a given period may affect the properties of the bitumen, including the aging properties and thus change the final performance of the mix. To overcome the problems of transport and storage of hot bitumen, cold storage and transport solutions have been developed. This mode of transportation of cold-packaged bitumen represents only a small fraction of the quantities transported worldwide, but it corresponds to very real needs for geographical regions of difficult and expensive access by traditional means of transport.
[0002] By way of example, mention may be made of the transport of bitumen at ambient temperature in metal drums. This means is increasingly questionable from an environmental point of view because the cold bitumen stored in the barrels must be reheated before use as a road binder. However this operation is difficult to implement for this type of packaging and the drums are a waste after use. On the other hand, the storage of cold bitumen in drums leads to losses because the bitumen is very viscous and part of the product remains on the walls of the drum when transferring to the tanks of the production units of the mix. As for handling and transporting bituminous products in these drums, they may be difficult and dangerous if specialized drum handling equipment is not available at the carriers or where the bitumen is used. The packaging of bituminous products in paper or thermoplastic bags, such as polypropylene or polyethylene, has been the subject of recent developments. For example, the US patent application 2011/0290695 describes a system for dispensing and packaging bituminous products in block form. Each block of bitumen is surrounded by a film of bituminous composition consisting of about 10 to 30% by weight of natural bitumen and about 5 to 25% by weight of a synthetic elastomer and copolymers. The bituminous composition film is melted with the bituminous product and is fully compatible with the molten bitumen. However, it has been found that bituminous products packaged in the form of paper bags or of thermoplastic material can flow during handling, storage and transport, because the bags can be pierced increasing the risk of deformation and leakage, especially when the temperature outdoor is high. When the bags are pierced, the bitumen flows and the bags stick together. The handling of the bags thus deteriorated becomes impossible, which renders them unusable.
[0003] Despite the recent development of bituminous product packaging, there is still a need to find a storage solution and transport of road bitumen and cold bituminous materials to overcome the drawbacks mentioned above.
[0004] In particular, the object of the present invention is to provide an improved method of transport and / or cold storage. Another object of the invention is to provide a method for easy handling of road bitumen during handling operations.
[0005] Another objective of the invention is to propose an ecological and economical process for transporting road bitumen and to avoid the use of additional means for maintaining the temperature of said bitumen during transport and / or storage.

The bitumen bases according to the invention are advantageously chosen from bitumen bases originating from the refining of crude oil. The bitumen bases may be chosen from bitumen bases or mixture of bitumen bases derived from the refining of crude oil, in particular bitumen bases containing asphaltenes. The bitumen bases can be obtained by conventional processes for the manufacture of bitumen bases in a refinery, in particular by direct distillation and / or vacuum distillation of the oil. These bitumen bases may optionally be visbroken and / or deasphalted and / or rectified in air. The various bitumen bases obtained by the refining processes can be combined with each other to obtain the best technical compromise. The bitumen base can also be a bitumen base for recycling.

The chemical additives corresponding to the formula (I) may advantageously be monoacids (z = 1), diacids (z = 2), triacids (z = 3) or tetracides (z = 4). The preferred chemical additives are diacids with z = 2. Similarly, the group R 1 is preferably a linear and saturated hydrocarbon chain of formula CwH 2 w with w an integer ranging from 4 to 22, preferably from 4 to 12. In particular, the chemical additives have the general formula HOOC-CwEl2w-COOH where w is an integer ranging from 4 to 22, preferably from 4 to 12.

The bitumens are prepared in the following manner. For the bitumen B1, the bitumen base Bo and the copolymer SB are introduced into a reactor maintained at 185 ° C. and with stirring at 300 rpm. The reactor contents are then maintained at 185 ° C. with stirring at 300 rpm for 4 hours. For bitumen B2, the bitumen base Bo is introduced into a reactor maintained at 165 ° C. with stirring at 300 rpm. The Fischer-Tropsch wax is then introduced into the reactor. The contents of the reactor are maintained at 165 ° C. with stirring at 300 rpm for 1 hour. Preparations of bitumens B3 and B4 are carried out by first introducing the bitumen base Bo into a reactor at 160 ° C. with stirring at 300 rpm. Then, sebacic acid (B3) or hydrazide (B4) is added in the form of granules. The mixtures are stirred for about 1 hour at 160 ° C to obtain a homogeneous final appearance. The mixtures are cooled to ambient temperature. Study of the aging properties of bitumens I30 and B3 The aging of Bo and B3 bitumens was studied according to the following protocol: Bo and B3 undergo a first aging according to the RTFOT (Rolling Thin Film Oven) method. Test) as described in standard NF EN 12607-1 and then subjected to a second test based on the principle of the PAV (Pressure Aging Vessel) test as described in ASTM D6521. The aging resistance properties of the Bo and B3 bitumens measured according to the standards mentioned above are given in the following Table 3: Table 3 Bitumen Bo B3 P25 (1/10 mm) 34 Viscosity Cylinder (Pa s) to: - 120 ° C 1,940 1,965 - 130 ° C 1,030 0,991 - 140 ° C 0,620 0,535 - 150 ° C 0,375 0,360 - 160 ° C 0,224 0,230 After aging RTFOT P25 (1/10 mm) 25 21 Viscosity Cylinder (Pa s) to : - 120 ° C 3,140 3,279 - 130 ° C 1,610 1,621 - 140 ° C 0,898 0,942 - 150 ° C 0,537 0,564 - 160 ° C 0,343 0,352 After aging RTFOT and PAV P25 (1/10 mm) 18 19 Isomodulation temperature at 300 MPa (° C) -12.6 -13.0 Slope at isomodule temperature at 300 MPa 0.273 0.266 Critical temperature (m = 0.300) (° C) -8.5 -8.4 Bitumen B3 has aging resistance properties equivalent to the bitumen base Bo without additive. The viscosity values of the bitumen B3 remain almost identical to those of the bitumen base Bo. The workability of hot bitumen B3 therefore remains unchanged with respect to the bitumen base Bo.
[0029] Moreover, the properties of the bitumen B3 according to the invention are not affected after aging RTFOT. The RTFOT test shows that the penetrability decreases less in the bitumen B3 than in the starting bitumen base Bo, after simulated aging.
[0030] Thus, the addition of sebacic acid to the bitumen base Bo makes it possible to obtain a binder having the necessary specifications for a road application. Presence of Bitumen P1 P2 P3 and P4 P1 to P4 bituminous bars are prepared from bitumen B1 to B4 respectively according to the following method. A mass of about 0.5 kg of bitumen is cast at 160 ° C in a rectangular steel mold covered with a polyethylene hot melt film. The mold is then cooled to room temperature and then demolded.
[0031] Creep test A qualitative creep test is carried out beforehand. The bitumen rolls Pi, P2, P3 and P4 thus obtained are placed in incubators at different temperatures and under a load of 2.5 kg (+/- 50 g) to simulate the stacking of the loaves on each other, during transport and / or storage. Indeed, it is estimated that 6 loaves are stacked vertically on a pallet during the transport and / or storage of bitumen bars. The blocks are first placed in an oven at a temperature of 40 ° C. If no creep is observed after a certain time, at most after 3 weeks, new loaves are molded and placed at an oven temperature of 50 ° C for at least 7 days. This operation is repeated by increasing the temperature from 10 ° C to a maximum temperature of 80 ° C if no creep is observed, or up to the temperature where a large creep breads is observed if said temperature is below 80 ° C. Creep results visually in deformation of the loaves and flow of the bitumen.
[0032] Table 4 below lists the results of the creep test obtained for the various bitumen bars.
[0033] Table 4 Bitumen loam Pi P2 P3 P4 (control) (control) Oven temperature (° C) 40 + + +++ +++ 50 - - +++ +++ 60 np * np * +++ +++ 70 np * np * +++ +++ 80 np * np * ++ ++ +++: no creep observed after 15 days ++: no creep observed after 7 days +: slight creep observed after 3 days -: significant creep in less than 2 hours * np: irrelevant; the creep test was not performed at this temperature since creep is observed at lower temperatures.
[0034] Only bitumen bars P3 and P4 according to the present invention do not flow under conventional storage and / or transport conditions. Creep Resistance Test This test is carried out in order to evaluate the deformation resistance of each bit of bitumen P1, P2, P3 and P4 when it is subjected to a load and at a temperature of 50 ° C. The creep resistance test itself is carried out using a texture analyzer sold under the name LF Plus by the company LLOYD Instruments and equipped with a thermal enclosure. To do this, a cylindrical metal box containing a mass of 60 g of bitumen cake is placed inside the thermal enclosure set at a temperature of 50 ° C. The piston of the texture analyzer is a cylinder with a diameter of 20 mm and a height of 60 mm. The cylindrical piston is initially placed in contact with the upper surface of the bitumen cake. Then, it moves vertically downwards, at a constant speed of 1 mm / min, over a calibrated distance of 10 mm so as to exert a compressive force on the upper surface of the bitumen roll. The texture analyzer measures the maximum compressive force applied by the piston to the bitumen roll at 50 ° C. The measurement of the maximum compressive strength makes it possible to evaluate the ability of the bitumen roll to resist deformation. Thus, the greater this strength, the better the resistance to deformation of the bitumen bread.
[0035] The results are listed in Table 5 below. Table 5 Asphalt bit P1 P2 P3 P4 (control) (control) Maximum compression force (N) 3.95 4.40 26.96 110.84 Although the values of the penetrability pair P25 and TBA of the P1 bitumen rolls to P4 are equivalent, the latter behave differently to deformation. Indeed, it is estimated that a bitumen cake is sufficiently resistant to creep when the maximum compressive force is at least 25 N at 50 ° C. Thus, the breads P3 and P4 according to the invention are particularly resistant to creep compared to control bitumen breads Pi and P2. In addition, the bread P4 containing the hydrazide is remarkable insofar as the maximum compressive force is approximately 25 times greater than that applied to control bituminous breads P1 or P2 which will tend to flow during their transport or their storage, especially at temperatures greater than or equal to 40 ° C, preferably greater than or equal to 50 ° C, more preferably greater than or equal to 60 ° C.
[0036] Thus, the bitumen rolls according to the invention do not stick to each other and keep their shape and consistency even at high ambient temperature. Thus, transport and / or storage are optimized for the bitumen rolls according to the invention, with facilitated handling, secure and minimized bitumen losses.
[0037] Study of the properties of bituminous mixes Et) and E3 Asphalt mixes E0 and E3 were prepared respectively from bitumens Bo and B3. The mixes E0 and E3 comprise respectively 5.4% by weight of bitumen Bo or B3 and 94.6% by weight of aggregates, said percentages being calculated relative to the weight of the bituminous mix.
[0038] The mixes are prepared by mixing bitumens and aggregates at 165 ° C according to a conventional method. The properties of the mixes E0 and E3 measured above are given in Table 6 below: Table 6 Coated Et) E3 Duriez Test (1) Void content (%) 10.30 9.80 r (MPa) 8.7 10 , 9 R (MPa) 10.5 12.8 r / R (%) 83 85.3 Rutting (2) Void content (%) 6.6 6.8 Rut depth at 30000 cycles (%) 3, 5 3.6 Low Temperature Cracking (TSRST) (3) Cracking Temperature (° C) -24.6 -23.0 Cracking Stress (MPa) 4.38 4.20 (1) Stripping Resistance Test to water according to standard NF EN 12697-12 (method B) (2) Rutting resistance test according to the standard NF EN 12697-22 (3) Cracking test at low temperature according to standard NF EN 12697- Asphalt mixes made with bitumen according to the invention as road binder have identical properties compared to a mix of the prior art Et). The addition of one or more additives according to the invention in a bitumen does not affect the properties of the mixes made from such bitumen.
[0039] Thus, for each test carried out, the void contents are comparable for E0 and E3, which indicates equivalent workability. This observation is consistent since the Bo and B3 bitumens have comparable viscosities between 120 ° C and 160 ° C (see Table 3). In addition, the resistance values r and R are higher for the mix E3 than for the mix Eo. The modulus and fatigue properties of the E3 mix are very satisfactory compared to the Eo mix.
