A recycled crumb rubber coating with a hydrophobic surface and a method for making the same. The coating with a hydrophobic surface includes a recycled crumb rubber coating layer comprising about 24-50 wt % of a crumb rubber, and about 25-75 wt % of an epoxy comprising a liquid epoxy resin and an epoxy hardener, and a first silane film comprising at least one silane and disposed on a surface of the recycled crumb rubber coating layer to form the hydrophobic surface. The method includes (a) mixing a crumb rubber with a liquid epoxy resin to form a first mixture, (b) mixing the first mixture with an epoxy hardener to form a recycled crumb rubber coating layer, and (c) depositing a first silane film comprising at least one silane on a surface of the recycled crumb rubber coating layer to form the hydrophobic surface of the recycled crumb rubber coating.

A pavement repair system is provided utilizing solid phase auto regenerative cohesion and homogenization by liquid asphalt oligopolymerization technologies. The system is suitable for use in repairing asphalt pavement, including pavement exhibiting a high degree of deterioration (as manifested in the presence of potholes, cracks, ruts, or the like) as well as pavement that has been subject to previous repair and may comprise a substantial amount of dirt and other debris (e.g., chipped road paint or other damaged or disturbed surfacing materials). A system utilizing homogenization by liquid asphalt oligopolymerization is suitable for rejuvenating or repairing aged asphalt, thereby improving properties of the paving material.

A pigment and method for making a pigment comprising a milled elastomer, wherein the milled elastomer has a D50 particle size of between about 5 and about 50 microns. A coating of the pigment has a smoothness of about 3 or less. The pigment is prepared by providing an elastomer; and milling the elastomer in the presence of milling media and solvent at a temperature from about 30 C. to about 70 C. The elastomer is insoluble in the solvent. The method for preparing the pigment from an elastomer comprises the steps of: providing an elastomer; and milling the elastomer in a media mill in the presence of milling media and solvent at a temperature from about 30 C. to about 70 C. The diameter of the milling media is from about 0.5 mm to about 10 mm, and the elastomer is insoluble in the solvent.
