Waterproofing and Anticorrosion Engineering Materials for Animal Husbandry Buildings Based on Polymer Modification

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
A novel multiphase composite was developed to prevent premature failure of waterproofing layers in pig houses. The system, comprising polyurethane, asphalt, and calcium carbonate, achieves a 1.35 MPa bonding strength and resists corrosion via a synergistic crosslinking, buffering, and passivation mechanism.

Influence of mineral fillers on the rheological response of polymer-modified bitumens and mastics

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2015
The rheological properties of the bituminous components (bitumen and bituminous mastic) within asphalt mixtures contribute significantly to the major distresses of flexible pavements (i.e. rutting, fatigue and low temperature cracking).
