Usage
- Modified Bitumen is mixed with aggregate (dust, 3/8, ½ etc.) to produce asphalt
- Increases bonding and anti-stripping properties of asphalt
- Displaces water from the surface of moist or wet aggregate to permit a strong asphalt bond
- It is used to delay hardening of hot mix asphalt especially where long haulage is required.
- It can also be added to hot mix asphalt where long haulage hours and distances are required.
Advantages
- Enhances bonding of asphalt cement to aggregate resulting in a pavement with higher tensile strength
- Inhibits breakdown asphalt cement/aggregate bonding and thus further extending the life of the road
- Low Odor
