GTL Sarawax
Viscosity Reduction for Smart Construction.
The addition VESTOPLAST® or VESTOWAX® resp. GTL Sarawax to the bituminous binders used in road construction does not only enhance the performance of road surfaces, it also makes construction work easier and safer.

VESTENAMER®
VESTENAMER® has been used as an additive in the rubber industry for years. By virtue of its properties, the versatile polyoctenamer can solve a variety of problems in the compounding and processing of rubber. It can also improve the dynamic properties of the vulcanized material and as well be used to recycle waste rubber.

VESTOPLAST®
Bitumen modification
The addition VESTOPLAST® or VESTOWAX® resp. GTL Sarawax to the bituminous binders used in road construction does not only enhance the performance of road surfaces, it also makes construction work easier and safer.
Roofing / Water proofing
High melting grades from Evonik’s VESTOPLAST® range of amorphous poly-alpha-olefins often are component in polymer modified bitumen (PmB) for the production of high-grade membranes for roofing and bridge construction. Beside excellent performance within a broad temperature range, PmBs containing non-reactive thermoplastic VESTOPLAST as a modifier are particularly well suitable for recycling processes, which are becoming more and more important.
