The application of polymers makes original bitumen available for application under unfavourable climatic conditions and heavy loads. \u00a0Often, the so-called SBS-polymers (styrene-butadiene-styrene) are used for bitumen modification. \u00a0By its nature, they are caoutchouc (rubber). \u00a0Interacting with bitumen, SBS-polymers increase their flexibility, elasticity and strength. \u00a0\u00a0Such polymers reduce the binder’s sensitivity to extreme temperatures and allows for significant improvement of its performance characteristics compared with unmodified bitumen.<\/p>\n

The compatibility of bitumen and polymers is essential to obtain a high-quality final product. \u00a0In such a case, the polymer is able to absorb oil components of the binder, preserving the network structure. \u00a0Due to the modification process, bitumen is turned into an elastomer that possesses better elasticity.<\/p>\n

Practice shows that modification of bitumen improves its performance characteristics between 10 and 20 times. \u00a0It is desirable to use special equipment to reach such results.<\/p>\n

GlobeCore<\/i><\/b> units designated as UVB-2 produce the modified bitumen necessary to make asphalt-concrete layers, \u00a0treat road surfaces, make sealing mastics and create roofing materials.<\/p>\n
