Recycled asphalt pavement � fly ash geopolymer as a sustainable stabilized pavement material

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2017
Strength, durability, microstructure and leachate characteristics of Recycled Asphalt Pavement and Fly Ash (RAP-FA) geopolymers and RAP-FA blends as a sustainable pavement material are evaluated in this paper. The strength development of the stabilized materials with and without effect wetting-drying (w-d) cycles was determined by Unconfined ...

Study on the Effects and Mechanisms of Different RPE/RPP Ratios on the Properties of Modified Asphalt

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 4, January 20, 2026.
Effects and Mechanisms of Different RPE/RPP Ratios on the Properties of Modified Asphalt. ABSTRACT Recycled polyethylene (RPE) and recycled polypropylene (RPP) are the most abundant types of plastic waste. Developing novel base asphalt modifiers (additives used to enhance the properties of asphalt) by blending RPE and RPP in different ratios is of ...

The Effect of Aging on the Cracking Resistance of Recycled Asphalt

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2017
Fatigue cracking is an important concern when a high percentage of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is used in an asphalt mixture. The aging of the asphalt binder reduces its ductility and makes the pavement more susceptible to cracking. Rejuvenators are

Modified Asphalt Mixtures Incorporating Pulverized Recycled Rubber and Recycled Asphalt Pavement

Civil Engineering Journal
In the search to achieve eco-friendly techniques that ensure significant improvements in the properties of hot mix asphalt (HMA), recycled materials are being considered with greater application, coming from the pavement itself and also from artificial elements such as rubber. In this sense, the objective was to study the behavior of the mechanical and

Recycling of Polymer Components From Waste Face Masks for Asphalt Modification: A Mini Review

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 2, January 10, 2026.
ABSTRACT The COVID‐19 pandemic greatly increased plastic waste through widespread personal protective equipment (PPE) use, creating a serious environmental challenge. Disposable face masks (FM), primarily composed of non‐biodegradable polypropylene, account for an estimated 86 million units discarded monthly, leading to significant environmental ...

Review of Flash Joule Heating for the Synthesis of Graphene and Other Functional Carbon Materials

Carbon Energy, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Flash Joule heating (FJH), as a high‐efficiency and low‐energy consumption technology for advanced materials synthesis, has shown significant potential in the synthesis of graphene and other functional carbon materials. Based on the Joule effect, the solid carbon sources can be rapidly heated to ultra‐high temperatures (> 3000 K) through ...
