The invention relates to a clear synthetic binder comprising at least one oil of plant origin, at least one resin of petroleum origin and at least one polymer, the amount of oil of plant origin in the binder is greater than or equal to 10% by weight and the amount of polymer in the binder is less than or equal to 15% by weight. The clear synthetic binder according to the invention has a good consistency, a reduced viscosity, and suitable behaviour at low temperature and elastic properties. The invention also relates to a bituminous mix prepared from said clear synthetic binder, this bituminous mix is prepared at temperatures between 100°C and 160°C, preferably between 120°C and 140°C and has suitable rutting resistance and water resistance. |
