Abstract
This review article provides a brief analysis of the history of the regulation of the fundamental criteria for assessing the quality of road bitumen materials in the Russian Federation over the past decades. With an emphasis on their rheological characteristics, which determine the durability of asphalt concrete pavements, in which the binder "works" in a film state. This allows researchers to reasonably determine the directions for further research to improve the quality of road binders. Special attention is paid to the relevance and expediency of developments for the creation of premium grades of polymer bitumen binders and the introduction of technologies for stable production at refineries of ordinary binders from raw materials of various genesis. The immediate need for organizing the production of binders according to the SuperPave system was also noted.
