DESCRIPTION: RoadChem™ 105 ® is a linear SBS triblock copolymer polymer designed to improve the rheological properties of asphalt. It has a wide range of compatibility with different asphalts made from different crudes and using different processing methods.
BENEFITS:
Linear, pure triblock copolymer Contains <1 diblock Medium styrene, high modulus copolymer Outstanding thermal stability.
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES: Appearance: Free flowing porous pellet or powder(105P). Styrene %: 31% Diblock content: <1% Density: 0.94 (ASTM D-792) Tensile strength: 4500psi (ASTM D412) Hardness Shore A: 78 ( ASTM D-2240) 300% modulus: 550psi( ASTM D-412) Elongation at Break %: 800 ( ASTM D-412) Storage Life: Indefinite in sealed 50 lb bags.
APPLICATION: Blending: Roadchem&#8482; 105 may be blended using conventional equipment, a high shear mill is required similar to Emultech® PMB blending plants.
TYPICAL FORMULATION: All formulations should be tested in the laboratory before use.
Asphalt should be checked for compatibility by making mixtures in the laboratory. VSS can assist with this process.
A typical formulation for a binder for high deformation resistance will contain 3-5% by weight Roadchem 105® blended with 80/100 pen or other asphalt. (e.g 30/40, 50/70, 180/220 or ANY other Grade)
The mix should be designed in accordance with good practice.
SAFETY: Roadchem&#8482; 105 is non hazardous. Refer to the MSDS for further information. |
