The research part presents the experimental design, and gives an overview of the research methodology used to assess the impact of the type of binding agent. Mixes differing in type and binder content were designed. During the laboratory work, mixtures were prepared with cement binder (CBGM), cement-modified polymer binder (CBGM+P), mineral-cement-emulsion modified with polymer binder (BE-RCM+P), and mineral-cement mixtures with foamed bitumen modified with polymer binder (FB-RCM+P). The project aimed to produce cold mixtures with variations in the type and amount of binder used. The mixtures were prepared using cold mix technology. The effect of the binder on the cold mix properties was studied. During the research, the following properties were examined: void content (V<sub>m</sub>), indirect tensile strength (ITS), resistance to water damage (TSR), stiffness modulus using the IT-CY method and an axial compressive strength. On the basis of the research carried out, an analysis was made. Among other things, the polymer modification was found to have a positive effect on the void content of the mix. The research carried out in this way made it possible to show the influence of the binder on the properties of cold mixes.</p>
