Abstract:

The work describes the basic laboratory characteristics of selected asphalt binders that could be suitable for hot applied sealants and bituminous membranes. Paving grade bitumen, polymer modified bitumen, asfalt-rubber and polymer modified bitumen with crumb rubber addition were used. Properties of binders were compared using tests of dynamic viscosity, needle penetration, cone penetration, softening point, resilience and elastic recovery.

Keywords:

Dynamic viscosity, needle penetration, cone penetration, softening point, resilience, elastic recovery, hot applied sealant, bituminous membrane.
