Abstract: A paving binder according to the present invention is used for a paving mixture for forming a pavement, including a polyamide resin having a weight average molecular weight, as measured by gel permeation chromatography of 2,000 or more and 10,000 or less and having an area, corresponding to a component having a molecular weight of 20,000 or more and 500,000 or less, of 0.5% or more and 12% or less of a total area in a chromatogram of molecular weight distribution as measured by gel permeation chromatography. Thus, tolerance for a severe temperature condition or loading condition can be improved, while ensuring convenience from the standpoint of laying such that the laying can be made by the conventional machine composition or laying system.

Abstract: A polyester resin laminated plate which has a smooth surface, has less anisotropy of mechanical properties, is inexpensive, has no restriction in size, thickness, etc., and has a good cutting workability is produced by a process including the steps of melt-extruding a composition including 100 parts by weight of a thermoplastic polyester resin compounded with from about 5 to about 40 parts by weight of a fibrous reinforcing material and from about 5 to about 50 parts by weight of a granular inorganic compound to form sheets, forcibly cooling the sheets to a temperature lower than the glass transition point of the polyester resin to provide plural sheets having a surface crystallinity of less than about 10%, laminating these plural sheets, and hot-pressing them at a pressure of from about 15 to about 150 kg/cm.sup.2 and at a temperature of from about 80.degree. to about 260.degree. C., with the rate of temperature increase of about 3.degree. C./minute or more to reach the temperature.
