1. Description of the product
ORBITON 65/105-80 HiMA (“soft HiMA”) is mainly suitable for wearing courses made of BBTM, AUTL, DSH, PA, SMA and special technologies, e.g. SAMI courses (“hot spray” application). Due to its top fatigue properties, it can be a component of anti-fatigue (AF) layers in the perpetual pavements concept. Another application of this binder is the production of bituminous emulsions intended for the slurry seal or surface dressing. Where high water tightness and elasticity is needed, ORBITON 65/105-80 HiMA may be used for the mastic asphalt MA.
