Limited studies in recent years have shown that asphalt pavement subject to seawater in coastal regions or deicing salt in cold regions may be seriously damaged after being soaked in saline water for a long time. However, there is limited research into the influence of salt on rheological properties of asphalt after long-term aging. In this study, rheological properties of unmodified and polyme...

The present research aims to conduct laboratory assessment on fatigue phenomenon in warm mix asphalt modified with nano-silica and including reclaimed asphalt pavement materials by the aid of review on self-healing behavior and measurement of validity of laboratory results by modeling via neural artificial network in neutral network of SPSS software. For this purpose, 2% weight of sasobit and 3...

Abstract The modification mechanism of modified asphalt with natural was analyzed through Fourier transform infrared spectrum. results show that the both and petroleum is mainly a physical blending process. polar functional groups contained in make have characteristic good scaling resistance water stability. Subsequently, carbon emissions each link production stage were quantified, influence mi...

In this study, different contents of Nano-silica, 2 wt.%, 4 wt.% and 6 wt.%, have been added to bitumen to modify the physical, mechanical and rheological properties of warm mix asphalt (WMA). WMA is containing 2 wt.% of Sasobit (mixture of long-chain hydrocarbons). Various quality control tests have been carried out to characterize the modified bitumen and WMA. The rheo...

The purpose of this study was to characterize and evaluate the effects UV radiation on rheological physicochemical properties ASA polymer-modified asphalt. conventional (penetration, softening point, ductility, Brookfield viscosity) asphalt were tested. Based rheology, effect different irradiation times high-temperature performance systematically characterized, thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) ...

The classical asphalt mix manufacturing commonly requires the heating and the complete drying of aggregates. The induced energy cost has opened the way to develop alternatives processes with low energy/ carbon materials such as Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA). Their manufacturing requires specifics techniques to achieve similar performances than Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA). However, manufacturing temperature ...

This paper reports the facile preparation, mechanical performance and linear viscoelasticity of polyetheramine-cured rubber-like epoxy asphalt composites (EACs) with different asphalt contents. Compared with previous EACs prepared via complex chemical reactions and time-consuming high-temperature curing, the EACs reported here were obtained by using a compatible, bi-functional polyetheramine an...
