During the last decades, the number of vehicles per citizen as well as the traffic speed and
load has dramatically increased. This sudden and somehow unplanned overloading has …

Organophilic montmorillonite (OMMT) was prepared via ion exchange of Ca-montmorillonite
(Ca-MMT) using dioctadecyl dimethyl ammonium chloride (DDAC). The OMMT and …

Plastics have become a key material in industrial development in recent decades, primarily
due to their low production costs and ease of manufacturing. Despite this, their low …

The mechanical performance of a typical surface course mixture, modified with two different
plastic wastes, both via the wet and dry processes, was evaluated in this study. Water …

Polymer modification is extensively used in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) because the
available asphalt cement does not satisfy the high-temperature requirements. It was widely …

In this study, waste polyethylene (WPE) was used as a modifier for base asphalt. In our
previous studies, we have examined a variety of polymer modifiers for asphalt. By contrast …

Egypt, nowadays, has obvious complementary advantages in the infrastructure construction
sector especially in the fields of highways and airports, resulting in drawing attention to …

Sustainable asphalt technologies involving materials recycling and energy-saving
approaches are growing demands. Among waste polymers, recycled low density …

An analysis of waste polyethylene (WPE) modified bitumens prepared using a variety of
approaches is described in this study. The WPE was obtained from commercially-available …

Maintaining the storage stability of polymer-modified asphalt is crucial to its optimal
performance. The phase separation in styrene–butadiene–styrene (SBS)-modified asphalt …
