Abstract: Physiochemical and rheological properties of asphalt binder are known to directly relate to asphalt pavement performance as it relates to fatigue and low temperature cracking. While other performance criteria such as rutting ...

Abstract: Asphalt binder resistance to permanent deformation at intermediate temperature significantly affects overall pavement resistance to rutting. To enhance asphalt resistance to permanent deformation, researchers have used ...

Abstract: This paper examines effects of a new biobased modifier, “biobinder,” on low-temperature properties of asphalt binder and compares the results with those of conventional modifiers: crumb rubber, Gilsonite, styrene-butadiene-styrene ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the feasibility of the application of scrap tire and swine manure to produce a sustainable alternative for bituminous asphalt used in pavement construction. Biobinder is produced from swine manure ...

Abstract: Physiochemical and rheological properties of asphalt binder are known to directly relate to asphalt pavement performance as it relates to fatigue and low temperature cracking. While other performance criteria such as rutting ...

Abstract: Waste nanotoner is a semiheavy waste material that can be very dangerous to the environment. It can be added to original asphalt binder to enhance some rheological and mechanical properties of the asphalt binder. The ...

Abstract: This paper examined the merits of using a polymer nanocomposite containing styrene-ethylene/propylene-styrene (SEPS) and montmorillonite (MMT) clay to enhance bitumen thermomechanical properties. To investigate the effects ...
