How Dry Process Rubberized Asphalt Works

A chemically Engineered Crumb Rubber product called Elastiko ECR is fed into your plant during mix production, just like a fine aggregate. The heated binder reacts with the ECR during mixing, storage and transport. The delivered mix lays and performs like a polymer-modified pavement, but at a fraction of the cost.

Step 1

Transport Rubber Into Fiber unit

Feed the bulk bag of crumb rubber into fiber feed unit to mix with RAP Collar.

Step 2

ECR is Injected Into RAP Collar

Crumb Rubber is injected into RAP Collar to mix with aggreates just like polymer.

Step 3

Lay Just Like Standard Mix

ECR asphalt is laid just like a standard hot mix asphalt design.

SUPERIOR RUTTING AND CRACKING RESISTANCE

The use of ECR substantially reduces your cost when compared to polymer modification cost.

Elastiko ECR is a chemically engineered recycled tire rubber product

For every one lane mile of Elastiko modified asphalt laid, approximately 800 tires will be kept out of our limited landfills. Society realizes: better use of natural resources and less waste going to landfills.

Improves Rutting and Crack Resistance

Dry Process ECR is better able to handle the stresses of heavy traffic, extreme temperatures, and frequent freeze-thaw cycles. The rubber particles reduce the likelihood of rutting and cracking.

Benefits of ECR Dry Process Asphalt

ECR reduces the cost of a two grade bump: by $2-$4 per mix ton. It makes your plant run faster compared to polymer modified mixes: lower mix viscosities permit 10-15% faster plant throughput. Also, it generates less waste: mixes leave the truck with almost no residue in the bed, reducing truck cleanout waste.

ECR extens paving season

ECR mixes can allow paving and compaction in colder temperatures

Work well in thinlay applications

Compared to standard unmodified hot mix asphalt, ECR pavements can achieve greater durability with thinner lifts.

Questions About Chemistrie Clips

Will Chemistrie Clips fit my glasses?

Chemistrie Clips are custom-made to your frame measurements. In most cases, if your glasses have enough lens area and aren’t extremely curved, we can design a clip to fit.

Do I need a new prescription?

You’ll use your existing prescription glasses as the base. Chemistrie Clips sit in front of your lenses, so you don’t need a separate prescription for the clip itself.

Can I order online or only through my eye doctor?

You can get Chemistrie Clips directly online or through participating eye care professionals. Use our store locator to find a provider near you.

How long do Chemistrie Clips last?

With normal use and care, Chemistrie Clips are built to last for years thanks to durable materials and precision magnets.
