Compared with other standard binder Lucolast® 7010 displays significant advantages in improving resistance to deformation. Rut formation tests at high temperatures demonstrated that asphalt can bear a two- to three-fold load when modifying it with thermoplastics or altering binder viscosity by adding Lucolast® 7010. This does not impair the low-temperature performance of Lucolast 7010, but rather improves it.

The advantages:

• Wearing courses according to ZTV-Asphalt
  
• Poured asphalt, also on sloping surfaces (ramps)
  
• Stone mastic asphalt
  
• Special asphalt surfaces, e.g. porous asphalt
  
• Thin bituminous wearing courses (hot laying)
