ABSTRACT:
Hard asphalts exhibiting acceptable penetration and low temperature properties can be produced from vacuum residua from which such hard asphalts are not normally obtainable via typical vacuum distillate such as that derived from Arab Light crude and/or feeds substantially comprising Arab Light-type crudes by ultrafiltering the residua through a membrane.
