Abstract
The present invention relates to mixtures of bitmen, of powdered rubber waste and of at least one copolymer (A) of an alpha-olefin and of at least one unsaturated epoxide, such that: PA1 the Brookfield viscosity at 180.degree. C. according to NFT Standard 76102 (27 needle) is lower than 1150 mPa s; PA1 the difference in absolute value of the softning points (ring-and-ball temperature) according to NFT 66008 between the top and bottom fractions of a mixture stored for 3 days at 180.degree. C. in a vertical tube is smaller than or equal to 5.degree. C. These mixtures are useful as road binders.
