“…Better characterization of asphaltenes, as shown in the literature, and applying different approaches, such as laser processing of asphaltenes, will open new paths for using asphaltenes in generating composite materials to improve the thermal and mechanical properties of polymers, to prepare nanoporous carbons, to fabricate fibers, as quantum dots for different purposes, such as self-cleaning matrix, sensors for detecting gas molecules, for energy storage devices, to name a few. Hence, the readily available asphaltenes and their heteroatomic structures make them ideal precursors for various industrial applications.…”

In the present review article, we summarize current investigations and contributions on a wide range applications of asphaltenes. Asphaltenes have been studied extensively for their potential novel applications. Recently, there has been increasing interest in revealing the potential of asphaltenes in different areas, such as electronics, polymer composites, supercapacitors, and gas-adsorbing matrixes. Upon giving describing asphaltenes’ structural characteristics, we focus on the applications of asphaltenes by correlating their chemical and electronic structure to their applications. After summarizing lessons learned about asphaltenes, we conclude the review by proposing new areas to apply asphaltenes and how to improve the current applications of asphaltenes.
