Abstract:
A method for producing an asphaltic sheet having expandable graphite dispersed in one or more asphaltic components thereof, the method comprising: (i) preparing a masterbatch by combining asphalt binder and polymeric modifier at a first temperature; (ii) cooling the masterbatch to a second temperature, where the second temperature is lower than the first temperature; (iii) adding, after said step of cooling, expandable graphite to the masterbatch to thereby form an asphaltic composition including expandable graphite; and (iv) fabricating a sheet with the asphaltic composition including expandable graphite.

Claim (Index 8):
The method of  claim 1 , where said second temperature is from about 120 to about 200\u00b0 C.
