The primary condition for obtaining high-quality asphalt concrete is good adhesion of bitumen to mineral material, which is ensured by good wetting and chemical interaction of the components. The solution to this problem is achieved by using adhesive additives with surface-active properties that enhance adsorption and chemisorption processes on the surface of the mineral material. This paper presents the results of an experimental study to determine the effect of adhesive additives on the adhesion of bitumen to stone material. For this work, bitumen of the BND 100/130 brand with adhesive additives “Wetfix Be”, Amdor-9 and AlfaDob were used. The elemental and phase compositions of the stone material of 10 quarries of the Republic of Kazakhstan were determined using X-ray fluorescence and X-ray phase analyses. The elemental composition showed the content of oxides: CaO, MgO, Fe2O3, Al2O3, and oxides: SiO2, K2O, Na2O, CO2 in minerals. Based on the results of the X-ray phase analysis, the percentage mineralogical composition of stone materials was determined and the total silicon dioxide was calculated based on the chemical formula corresponding to certain minerals.
