Abstract
EVATECH H is a bituminous binder modified with Ethylene/Vinyl-Acetate co-polymer; it was originally developed for use in UL-M (ULtra-Mince), a thin surfacing material. Its rheological properties, both fundamental and empirical, show that the properties such as rolled asphalt are enhanced when compared to those of conventional binders. This enhancement has been confirmed using the wheel-tracking test on samples of a typical rolled asphalt wearing course mixture. (Author/publisher).
