The use of polymer-modified binders in asphalt mixtures has become more widespread due
to their reduced thermal susceptibility and improved rutting and fatigue resistance …

The failure of bituminous pavements takes place due to heavy traffic loads and weather-
related conditions, such as moisture, temperature, and UV radiation. To overcome or …

Asphalt modifications either involved commercial or recycled waste materials modifiers help
optimise and improve the deficient properties of asphalt mixtures relative to current …

This study investigates the feasibility of adding petroleum sludge (PS) in bitumen to reduce
the reliance on petroleum-based bitumen. This objective was achieved by modeling and …

Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) has been widely employed in the modification of asphalt binder
due to the rigid three-dimensional network structure and special functional groups. In this …

Epoxy asphalt binder was prepared by mixing the base asphalt with epoxy resin, curing
agent and other additives. The chemical and physical properties for epoxy asphalt binders …

The crumb rubber (CR) recycled from waste tires can improve the mechanical properties of
bitumen effectively. For the widely used modified bitumen today, it could work in nonlinear …

This study investigates the effects of adding ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer and
nanoclay (NC) on the high-temperature performance of asphalt binders. Three different …

Due to periodic variations in temperature and heavy traffic loading, hot-mix asphalt (HMA)
pavements undergo considerable distress during their service life. The rheological …

Utilizing polymers for asphalt concrete (AC) mixture modification has many drawbacks that
hinder its wide implementations for roadway construction. Recently, research on employing …
