Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015126252A1] In a first aspect the invention relates to an asphalt composition comprising a bituminous binder material and solid particles composed of mineral aggregates and elastic particles, which elastic particles have a maximum particle size of at most 2.8 mm, and wherein the solid particles composed of mineral aggregates and elastic particles are gap-graded, the gap being defined by a lower and an upper limit, wherein solid particles of a size between the lower and upper limit are substantially absent, wherein the upper limit of the gap is bigger than the maximum particle size of the elastic particles, and wherein the mineral aggregates include particles with particle sizes above the upper limit of the gap. Other aspects of the invention concern a preferred method of preparing the asphalt composition, a road surface manufactured from the asphalt composition and a mastic composition.
