Zusammenfassung: | A bitumen composition containing an asymmetric, radial block copolymer comprising i) a plurality of block copolymer arms comprising at least one polymeric block of a monoalkenyl aromatic hydrocarbon and at least one polymeric block of a conjugated diolefin polymer, and ii) a plurality of conjugated diolefin polymer arms. The bitumen composition exhibits increased toughness and tenacity as determined by the Benson method and is particularly useful in road paving applications. Best results are achieved when the asymmetric, radial block copolymer is sulfur vulcanized after incorporation into the bitumen composition. |
