Epoxy Asphalt is formulated using a blend of materials from a particular domestic oil field. The asphalt derived from this crude has unique properties that make it compatible with the epoxy resins and curing agents that make up the total binder and balance the working life, cure time, strength and flexibility of the system. Other asphalts do not provide all these properties and most are not compatible with the epoxy resin and curing agents.
