Linear Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene Rubber Kumho KTR 101

Description

A linear block copolymer containing styrene and butadiene. Styrene mass fraction is 31.5%.

Key characteristics of the styrene-butadiene Kumho KTR 101 include:

  • increases the softening temperature of bitumen
  • reduces sensitivity to temperature changes
  • improves low-temperature flexibility
  • improves elasticity and resistance to impact loads
  • extends the service life of road surfaces

Applications

Bitumen modification (road surfaces and roofing), plastics modification, adhesives, shoe soles.

Часто Задаваемые Вопросы

Сколько процентов СБС нужно класть в битум для модификации?

Различные марки СБС показывают разную эффективность, наиболее распространенным диапазоном считается 2-4% от массы вяжущего для асфальта. Такой процент экономически оправдан и существенно повышает свойства ПБВ, превосходя установленные стандарты.
