Abstract

© 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd. All rights reserved. Currently, studying additives to petroleum road bitumen for improving their quality generates a growing interest in research field. Actually, this is related to the requirements for polymer-bitumen materials which are constantly becoming tougher, and therefore the need to develop and produce new polymer-bitumen binders. In this paper we considered the most frequently used effective additives and analyzed their positive and negative sides.
