Abstract

Abstract An epoxy resin-bitumen material composition is prepared by mixing an epoxy resin and a bitumen material in the presence of a co-solubilizer represented by the general formula <IMAGE> [II] wherein R is hydrogen or a hydrocarbyl group having 1-9 carbon atoms, R' is an alkylene group having 2-3 carbon atoms, n is an integer 1-10 inclusive, and p and q are respectively an integer of 0-40 in average. The resulting composition is useful as a road pavement material, bonding material for railroad track ballast, anti-corrosion agent, etc. The cured product resulting from this composition is advantageous in that it has good heat resistance and free from bleeding.
