ISM offers a broad range of specialty additives that improve the performance of products utilised during the preparation, making and resurfacing of roads.
Bitumen can be modified by the addition of polymers to change stiffness, flexibility and viscosity properties, depending on the end application. For hotmix, it is imperative to reduce the loss of aggregate from the road to achieve good adhesion between the aggregate and the bitumen binder. And in emulsions, the emulsifier plays a critical role in modifying performance so that it is fit for purpose as a rapid setting seal, a slow setting dust suppressant or one of many other applications.
ISM can assist in product selection, new product development and the logistics of supplying raw materials.
