PolySeal

Polymer Modified Bitumen Binder for Spray Sealing Applications

This binder is a composite product manufactured from blends of bitumen, polyethylene and elastomeric polymers. PolySeal is a PMB which derives unique properties resulting in performance benefits contributed by each polymeric additive. In addition to the "toughness" imparted by the polyethylene, the elastomers increase the binders elasticity and promotes superior adhesion with the aggregate. The combination of great toughness and excellent adhesion make the polyethylene composite PolySeal, a superior sealing binder which does not significantly compromise intrinsic elastic properties or temperature susceptibility.

Features and benefits

  • Greater toughness
  • High softening point
  • Superior aggregate retention
  • Crack retardation
  • Flexibility to meet numerous performance specifications
  • Unequalled storage stability and handling characteristics
  • No transportation limitations
  • Compatibility with a broad range of bitumens
  • Excellent cost-performance ratio
  • Less prone to fuming as no extender oils are added
  • Early sweeping capability - 1 hour
  • Sprayed at a lower temperature than crumb rubber and SBS binders
