Modified bitumen membranes combine bitumen and styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS), a family of synthetic rubber originating from styrene and butadiene. This process modifies the bitumen to create a copolymer with vastly improved elasticity, tensile strength, abrasion resistance, ageing stability and a higher softening point whilst retaining the phenomenal waterproofing performance of bitumen. The SBS modified bitumen is […]
