CONTAINED IN VOL 04.03, 2001 Specifies asphalt cements that have been modified by the addition of an appropriate polymer for use in the construction of pavements. It was developed to provide a reference for specifying polymer modified asphalt and reflects the properties of currently available commercial products. The intention of the tests is to measure degree of modification and compatibility, not performance characteristics. This is not meant to be a performance based specification. Type II polymer-modified asphalts are made typically with styrene-butadiene rubber latex or polychloroprene latex. Any polymer can be used that will give the required results when blended with the desired asphalt.

1.1 This specification covers asphalt cements that have been modified by the addition of an appropriate polymer for use in pavement construction. It was developed to provide a reference for specifying polymer modified asphalt and reflects the properties of currently available commercial products. The tests are intended to measure compatibility and degree of modification, not performance characteristics. This is not intended to be a performance based specification.

1.2 Type II polymer-modified asphalts are typically made with styrene-butadiene rubber latex or polychloroprene latex. However, any polymer may be used that will give the required test results when blended with the desired asphalt.
