Abstract: In this study, two types of modified asphalts were prepared via two different approaches, using as modifiers waste rubber and plastic and other raw materials. One approach followed a two-step mechanism of melting-blending ...

Abstract: To minimize problems of poor bonding and tracking in common tack coats, modified asphalt–based trackless tack coat material (TTCM) was prepared by adding styrene–butadiene–styrene, uintaite mastic asphalt, ethylene-vinyl ...

Abstract: Fiber-modified asphalt has excellent road performance, but the mechanism of this enhancement still requires deeper understanding. Herein, the interfacial interaction between fibers and asphalt is explored using an adsorption ...
