RUBBER MODIFIED ASPHALT
Ground Tire Rubber (GTR) is a post consumer polymer fractionally beneficial in modification of asphalt binders.
Benefits of modification of asphalt with GTR are similar to those achieved with virgin synthetic polymers with the exception GTR loadings are typically higher.
Knowledge and technology for processing GTR modified binders are just as critical as with synthetic polymer modified binders e.g. SBS
In the US, Asphalt Rubber or rubber modified bitumen/asphalt is the largest single market for recycled tires and consumes an estimated 12 million tires annually.

RUBBER MODIFIED ASPHALT
Ground Tire Rubber (GTR) is separated into two particle sizes by class “ground” (2000μm and less) and “coarse” (greater that 2000μm)
Rubber produced from ground whole tires contains ~ 30% reactive material for asphalt modification.
Functional yield is dependent of tire composition and asphalt and is directly proportional to rubber source, rubber particle size and asphalt source.
Terminal blending can be an operations challenge without adequate knowledge of asphalt chemistry, GTR source and processing.

HOW TO HANDLE LARGER CRM
60 mesh material is easily handled in 1 mm gap.
30 mesh material may be tested at 2 mm 20 mesh material may require larger gaps. What is the limit of gap size? Are other geometries available to test larger
particles?

SUMMARY
CRM binder is sensitive to crude source. Rubber size will effect test results. Particles
should be ¼ gap size or less. Careful formulation is needed to meet all Jnr
specs, but it can be done successfully. CRM Binders can be produced to meet PMA
specs. Large CRM particle sizes can be tested in DSR

SUMMARY There may be some differences for CRM binder spec
and PMA Spec Solubility for CRM binder may be different. Stress sensitivity may be different.Most other properties will be the same.
Addition of ground tire rubber (GTR) to asphalt is an accepted practice in HMA production
Modification of liquid asphalt binders with GTR is well established and can provide high performance pavements which aid in reduction of the number of waste tires deposed of in landfills and elsewhere
