Abstract
Binder compositions and methods of producing the same are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a binder composition includes asphalt and ground tire rubber particles. The ground tire rubber particles have a nominal product designation (Alternative US Sieve Size) defined by ASTM D5603-23 of equal or higher than about 200 mesh, and where the binder composition includes the ground tire rubber particles in an amount of from about 5 to about 14 weight percent, based on a total weight of the binder composition. the binder composition is stable.
Claims20
A binder composition comprising:
- asphalt;
- and
- ground tire rubber particles, wherein the ground tire rubber particles have a nominal product designation (Alternative US Sieve Size) defined by ASTM D5603-23 of equal or higher than about 200 mesh, and wherein the binder composition comprises the ground tire rubber particles in an amount of from about 5 to about 14 weight percent, based on a total weight of the binder composition;
- wherein the binder composition is stable.
A method of producing a binder composition comprising:
- combining asphalt and ground tire rubber particles, where the ground tire rubber particles have a nominal product designation (Alternative US Sieve Size) defined by ASTM D5603-23 of equal or higher than about 200 mesh, to produce a premix asphalt material, and wherein the ground tire rubber particles are present in the premix asphalt material in an amount of from about 5 to about 14 weight percent, based on a total weight of the premix asphalt material;
- and
- mixing the premix asphalt material to form the binder composition.
A binder composition, comprising:
- asphalt in an amount of from 20 to 85 weight percent, based on a total weight of the binder composition;
- ground tire rubber particles having a nominal product designation (Alternative US Sieve Size) defined by ASTM D5603-23 of equal or higher than about 200 mesh, in an amount of from about 5 to about 14 weight percent, based on the total weight of the binder composition;
- and
- a polyolefin in an amount of from about 1 to about 10 weight percent, based on the total weight of the binder composition;
- and wherein;
- the binder composition is stable.
