Oil-enhanced polymer modified asphalt adhesive compositions and methods of making

Abstract:

Oil-enhanced polymer modified asphalt adhesive compositions, membrane materials including the oil-enhanced polymer modified asphalt adhesive composition, and methods for making are provided. The oil-enhanced polymer modified asphalt adhesive compositions have improved elongation, recovery, heat resistance, and cold adhesion and may include a polymer modified asphalt and an oil or oil derivative additive. The polymer modified asphalt may include an elastomeric copolymer. The oil or oil derivative additive may include one or more of vegetable oils, nut oils, and seed oils. A membrane including the oil-enhance polymer modified asphalt is also provided. A multi-layered roofing membrane is also provided.
