Low strength and early structural failures in asphalt roads are common problems in pavement engineering. The main cause of these problems is the constant deformation of the layers that compose it caused by the increase in the operation of traffic loads. The modification of asphalt binders is an application that has been used for some years to improve the properties of asphalt cement and extend the useful life of asphalt pavements. Modifiers must have special characteristics, as in the case of elastomers, which are polymers with elastic properties and can be handled at high temperatures. In the present research, the basic properties of the binder modified with the elastomer Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) were analyzed in 5, 10 and 15% addition by weight of asphalt. In addition, the Marshall method was used to evaluate the mechanical properties and elastic behavior of bituminous mixtures modified for light, medium and heavy traffic. It was determined that the flash point and torsional elastic recovery of the modified binder had an incremental positive behavior with the increase in TPU content, while other properties such as solubility and ductility did not undergo significant variations. On the other hand, the penetration property decreased with the content of the polymer, improving its consistency. In addition, it was found that asphalt mixtures will have a better ability to resist deformations and improved fatigue behavior, although the latter is not as noticeable.
