Mechanical alterations of bitumens with different crude oil origins through polymer modification [PDF]
Hot mix asphalt (HMA) performance is significantly influenced by the chemical variability of bitumen, which is closely linked to crude oil origin. These source-dependent variations also affect the response of bitumen to polymer modification.

Quality checking of Polymer modified bitumens in Slovenia [PDF]
For many years the properties of bitumen have been determined based on mechanical tests as needle penetration, Ring&Ball and Fraass fracture temperature. For elastomer (styrene-butadiene-styrene) polymer modified bitumens these tests are not sufficient to show the important differences in bitumens.
