 Hybrid binders (e.g. SBS-crumb rubber systems) have become more popular in the past couple of years as scientists have established the benefits of blending these two modifiers. Using this technology it is possible to bring together many of the advantages of the various polymers used. Specifically, by using CRM-SBS binders excellent results have been achieved in enhanced performance with improved storage stability. Also with regards to paving properties, terminal blends have been very popular in chip seal applications and have proven to be an economic alternative to completely replacing the pavement. The introduction of CRM-SBS modified binders represents an evolution in the modified asphalt industry and is widely thought to be the future of the PMAs.
