Claim Text:
1. A method of producing a composite material, the composite material comprising an aggregate and a reaction product of a two-component polymeric binder composition comprising a first component and a second component, the method employing a mixing system comprising an aggregate vessel comprising the aggregate, a first vessel comprising the first component, a second vessel comprising the second component, and a mixing apparatus comprising a mixer and an auger rotatably disposed within a channel, wherein the mixing apparatus is in communication with the aggregate vessel, the first vessel, and the second vessel, the method comprising: (a) delivering the aggregate into the channel of the mixing apparatus at a delivery rate; (b) delivering the first and second components into the mixer of the mixing apparatus; (c) mixing the first and second components in the mixer of the mixing apparatus independent of the aggregate to obtain the reaction product of the two-component polymeric binder composition; and (d) contacting the reaction product of the two-component polymeric binder composition with the aggregate within the channel of the mixing apparatus at an application rate to obtain the composite material.
