Present work is devoted to investigation of the composite material based on the mechanically grinded recycled tires and polymer binder. The correlation between polymer binder content, some technological parameters and selected properties of the material was clarified. Apparent density, compressive stress at 10% deformation, compression modulus of elasticity in statistic and cyclic mode of loading, microhardness and insulation properties were the parameters of the special interest of present investigation. It was cleared up that purposeful variation of material composition lead to predictable mechanical and insulation properties of the composite material.
