Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a concentrated binder having a very high polymer content comprising a soft aromatic petroleum base, optionally a bituminous base and at least one polymer characterized in that the polymer content in the concentrated binder is greater than or equal to 20% by weight, preferably greater than or equal to 25% by weight, and the use thereof in the preparation of a dilute bitumen/polymer binder for the fields of road applications, in particular in the manufacture of road binders, and in the fields of industrial applications.
Claims17
A polymer-concentrated binder comprising:
- at least 70% by weight of a soft aromatic petroleum base comprising at least one aromatic petroleum cut, taken alone or as a mixture, from de-aromatization of petroleum cuts originating from the refining of crude oil;
- at least one polymer consisting of one or several copolymers based on conjugated diene units and aromatic monovinyl hydrocarbon units;
- and
- optionally a bituminous base,
- wherein the polymer-concentrated binder has a polymer content greater than or equal to 20% by weight.
