Mechanistic Approach to Thermal Production of New Materials from Asphaltenes of Castilla Crude Oil

Asphaltenes are compounds present in crude oils that influence their rheology, raising problems related to the extraction, transport, and refining. This work centered on the chemical and structural changes of the asphaltenes from the heavy Colombian Castilla crude oil during pyrolysis between 330 an...
