Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a non-destructive imaging tool, which is capable of
qualitative and quantitative surface analysis with sub-nanometer resolution. Simultaneously …

Negative impacts of field aging on both the asphalt matrix and styrene–butadiene–styrene
copolymer (SBS) seriously compromise the performance quality of the SBS-modified asphalt …

The performance of asphalt pavement is seriously affected by aging of asphalt binder, so
indices are expected which can not only evaluate aging resistance of asphalt binder but also …

In cold climates, increased traffic load has increased the damage caused by low-
temperature cracks (LTCs) in asphalt mixes. Due to the viscoelastic behavior of asphalt …

To clarify the current situation regarding nano layered silicate-modified asphalt, the latest
research progress is reviewed in this study. The raw materials and preparation parameters …

Asphalt is susceptible to being aged when exposed to thermal, oxygen and photo
environment during construction or service period. To solve this issue, researchers used …

The bitumen physicochemical properties of are constantly changing during both the
production of asphalt mixtures and the service of road pavements. These changes involve …

To investigate the performance and mechanism of flame retardance and smoke suppression
of organic montmorillonite (OMMT) modified asphalt, limiting oxygen index (LOI) and …

Increasing traffic congestion especially in cold climates has increased the damage caused
by low-temperature cracks (LTCs) in the asphalt mix where the constituents are not able to …

It has been determined that the compositions of zinc oxide/expanded vermiculite (ZnO/EV)
can exert synergetic effects on improving the aging resistance of asphalt, but road …
