Nanoclay application to asphalt concrete: Characterization of polymer and linear nanocomposite-modified asphalt binder and mixture

open access: yesConstruction and Building Materials, 2015
This paper presents and discusses benefits of nano engineering in asphalt binder and asphalt mixture; mainly the performances of polymer, nanoclay and nanocomposite-engineered asphalt mixtures were evaluated.

Comparative Field Evaluation of Shale Oil–Modified Asphalt with Polymer-Modified Asphalts

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 1996
Since the discovery, patenting by Western Research Institute, and licensing to The New Paraho Corporation of a concept for the use of an asphalt modifier that can be produced from western shale oil, nine test strips have been constructed in five states in the United States.

The viscoelastic properties of polymer‐modified asphalts

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2000
AbstractThe linear viscoelastic properties of one family of base asphalts, unmodified or modified by the simple addition of an elastomer or by further in‐situ crosslinking, have been investigated. The time‐temperature superposition principle was shown to be valid for the base as well as for the modified asphalts.

Nanoclays as Asphalt-Binder Modifiers

2013
Among the solutions to reduce failures of road pavements, polymer-modified asphalts (PMAs) represent the most effective one and have been adopted worldwide in the last decades. PMAs are blends of asphalt and a polymer, where the latter is swollen by the bituminous material, thus forming a network whose structure closely resembles that of gels ...

Modifying Complex Additive for Asphalt Binder

Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils, 2016
© 2016 Springer Science+Business Media New York.The effect of modifying complex additives on the physicochemical properties of asphalt is studied. It is shown that complex additives based on cellulose fibers with surfactants adsorbed on their surfaces possess a cross-linking effect and improve the heat and frost resistance of the asphalt binder and its

Memory functions in polymer modified asphalts

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2007
AbstractThe viscoelastic nonlinear behavior of several base and polymer modified asphalts (PMA) has been studied in step‐strain experiments. The polymers were poly(styrene‐b‐butadiene‐b‐styrene), poly(styrene‐b‐ethylene‐co‐butylene‐b‐styrene), poly(ethylene‐r‐vinylacetate) copolymers, and a linear low density poly(ethylene), which were chosen as ...

Temporary networks in polymer‐modified asphalts

Polymer Engineering & Science, 2004
Abstract The viscosity functions of several polymer‐modified asphalts (PMAs) were studied at different temperatures in steady‐state rate sweep tests. The materials were obtained by mixing different base asphalts with either styrene‐butadiene‐styrene (SBS), ethylene‐vinylacetate (EVA) or reactive ethylene terpolymers (RET).

Viscosity function in polymer-modified asphalts

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2003
Asphalt is a multidisperse micellar system with rheological behavior resembling that of a low-molecular-weight polymer. Nowadays, asphalt is frequently modified by blending it with various polymers. Such modified asphalt has rheological properties that differ from the properties of the base asphalt.

Bio-Renewable Asphalt Modifiers and Asphalt Substitutes

2011
The global asphalt market is to reach 118.4 million metric tons by 2015, according to a January 2011 report by Global Industry Analysis, Inc. The asphalt paving industry accounts for the largest end-use market segment of asphalt. With increasing growth in the developing markets of China, India, Brazil, and Eastern Europe, asphalt will be needed to ...

Composite Asphalt Binders: Effect of Modified RPE on Asphalt

Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2000
This study prepared and characterized recycled polyethylene (RPE) modified asphalts. The RPE was modified with different copolymers before incorporating into the asphalt. A special morphology was found for this system. The RPE particles are highly swollen by asphalt. This morphology is attributed to physical interactions.
