Abstract:

In this bachelor thesis, there are described modified bitumens. The issue of modified bitumens will be explained in the theoretical part. In the practical part, it will be prepared set of modified bituminous binders with different degree of modification. Basic empirical testing and functional testing will be determined. The aim of  thesis is to find the optimal source of unmodified bitumen for modification.

Keywords:

Bitumen, natural bitumen, petroleum bitumen, bituminous binders, modified bitumen, polymer modified bitumen, temperature, needle penetration, softening point, ring and ball method, Fraass breaking point, elastic recovery, dynamic shear rheometer, complex shear modulus, phase angle.
