Two-Component Polymer system 1st Component (Part A) = Epoxy Resin A= 2nd Component (Part B) = Hardener & Asphalt B = With Aggregate = Epoxy Asphalt Concrete = 11. A stable and durable 2-Phase Polymer System Hardener/Epoxy = Continuous Phase = Asphalts = Discontinuous Phase = Hardener/Epoxy Predominates 12. Asphalt, SMA, Gussasphalt are Thermoplastics.Will Melt ! (SMA)(Gussasphalt) Epoxy Asphalt is Thermoset. Will Not Melt ! 13. Epoxy Asphalt has: Higher Strength/Stability Better Stiffness over Temperature Range Better Resistance to Creep/Flow Better Adhesion 14. Higher Strength/Stability Greater than Four Times Stability of AsphaltConcrete4 Withstands Higher Overloads without Damage Does Not Rut or Shove 15.

Better Stiffness Less Softening as Temperature Increases Reduces Deflection of Deck Increases Fatigue Life of Steel Deck System 18. BETTER RESISTANCE TO CREEP/FLOW Much More Elastomeric Better Fatigue Life No Permanent Deformation under High Loads Reduced Damage by Slow Moving or Stopped Overloaded Trucks 19.
