Abstract
A process is provided for the preparation of bitumen-polymer compositions wherein bitumen is mixed at a composition between 100.degree. C. and 230.degree. C. with a block copolymer of styrene and a conjugated diene and a coupling agent containing a sulphur-donor compound for a duration of at least 10 minutes. The coupling agent is comprised of an elementary sulphur vulcanization agent and at least one sulphur-donor vulcanization accelerator from among morpholine disulphide, N,N'-disulphide of caprolactam and thiuram polysulphides.
