The invention concerns a method for producing bitumen/polymer compositions which consists in contacting between 100 ·C and 230 ·C and under agitation a bitumen or a mixture of bitumen's with at least one styrene and butadiene copolymer having a global butadiene content ranging between 50 % and 95 wt. % and a content of butadiene 1,2 double-bond structural units ranging between 12 % and 50 wt. % of the copolymer and, preferably also a sulphuring coupling agent or a functionalising agent. Said bitumen/polymer compositions are usable directly or after dilution, for forming bitumen/polymer binders for surfacing materials.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed April 17, 1998 and granted January 4, 2011. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended April 17, 2018.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 17, 2020.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
