ZycoTherm (ZT) is an organosilane additive to bitumen binder, to be added before bitumen is mixed with aggregates to produce HMA. ZT makes the pavements resistant to '* Moisture, as it promotes chemical bonding at the aggregate interface '* Oxidation, as it enables complete coating '* Fatigue loads, as it facilitates consistent compaction while paving Moreover, ZT also allows lower mixing temperatures (by 10-15 °C) and lower compaction temperatures (by 30-40 °C) making ZT an environment friendly warm mix, warm compaction bitumen additive. TEGO eaes Urn CRs =o) Cw Ea Pee Srey ‘© ZT ensures nano modification of aggregate surface from water loving to bitumen loving, '* Permanent chemical bonding at the aggregate interface leads to excellent antistripping performance.
