| Description | Polymers are used in asphalt to increase the range of temperature in which the asphalt mix can be used without any distress and to improve bonding of asphalt binder and aggregates. Polymers can be either preblended with the liquid asphalt binders or blended with the mix at the hot mix asphalt (HMA) plant. A growing use of polymer-modified asphalt is in chip seal coats and other thin-layer maintenance applications, as an interlayer for resisting reflective cracking, as well as in other specialty mixes such as the open-graded friction course (OGFC) and stone matrix asphalt (SMA). SMA is a binder-rich, aggregate, interlocked, rut-resistant, and durable asphalt mix that can be used for high-volume, heavy, as well as slow or standing traffic pavement, such as that in industrial loading areas, bus lanes, or container terminal areas.
