The present invention relates to an asphalt composition comprising a thermosetting reactive compound.

Asphalt emulsions comprising asphalt present in an amount of 50% by weight or greater, based on the weight of the asphalt emulsion, an isocyanate present in an amount of 0.05% by weight or greater, based on the weight of the asphalt emulsion, and water. The isocyanate is derived from an aromatic, a cycloaliphatic, or an aliphatic isocyanate, or a mixture thereof. Preferably, the isocyanate includes methylene diphenyl diisocyanate. The asphalt emulsion can comprise one or more polyols. Methods of making the asphalt emulsions are also described.

An asphalt composition comprising 0.1 to 10.0 wt.-% monomeric MDI based on the total weight of the composition.

The present invention relates to a polymerisable plasticiser formed by a hydrocarbon chain, one end of which bears more than one isocyanate function, said hydrocarbon chain comprising and/or being substituted by an aromatic ring and/or an aliphatic ring and/or said hydrocarbon chain is substituted by at least two hydrocarbon chains that can comprise an unsaturation, and the number of isocyanate functions being strictly greater than 1, preferably greater than 1.2, and, more preferably, grater than 1.5 but less than or equal to 2.2. The invention also relates to liquid polyurethane resin compositions and, in particular, stable, ready-to-use liquid polyurethane resin compositions comprising said plasticiser. The invention further relates to methods for replacing all or part of the exogenous plasticiser and/or solvent in a polyurethane resin by adding said polymerisable plasticiser.
