Abstract:
A field trial of six binder-modifiers was performed in 1987. The binder-modifiers consisted of two types of SBS blocked copolymer, carbon black, SBR latex, polypropylene fiber, and ethylene vinylacetate copolymer resin. A summary of field and laboratory tests, conducted over a 5-year period, was made and the overall field performance of the binder-modifiers was compared with that of several control sections. The binder-modifiers did not appear to significantly improve field performance when compared with the control sections.
