Appeal No. 1996-2112 Application 08/210,217 1. A bituminous cold-application self-adhesive composition characterized in comprising a mixture of: 5 to 25% of a styrene-diene rubbery polymer mixture that comprises (A) one radial styrene-butadiene block copolymer; (B) at least one styrene-isoprene block copolymer selected from the group consisting of linear and radial copolymers; and (C) one styrene-diene di-block copolymer; 0 to 25% of at least one tackifying resin; and, 5 to 95% bitumen. 6. The composition of claim 1 characterized in that copolymer (C) comprises a styrene di-block copolymer in which the styrene portion represents from 15 to 45 weight percent and whose total molecular weight is between 50,000 and 150,000. 7. The composition of claim 6 characterized in that copolymer (C) is of statistical interlinking, containing one styrene block and one styrene-butadiene block in a statistical distribution.
