A bibliometric analysis and review on the performance of polymer-modified bitumen

The addition of polymer to a base binder has been documented as successful approach in terms improving physical and rheological properties the bitumen. However, main drawbacks polymer-modified bitumen are incompatibility degradation due aging. This article aims introduce bibliometric analysis review on modifying with polymers. Additionally, this intent highlight significant gaps recommendations for future work. Furthermore, another objective is provide worth attempt regrading reducing negative impact polymer’s performance binder. findings demonstrated that test storage stability polymer-amended should be modified, which softening point aluminum tube centerpiece measured better evaluation In addition, effects kinetic factors (mixing sequence, viscosity blend, shear rate, time mixing) compatibility investigated. Moreover, compatibilizers stabilizers recommended improve reduce effect aging polymer.
