Dusty Streets: The Challenge of Dust‐Borne Pollutants in Low‐Income Countries

CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 2, February 2026.
Generally, pollution impacts developed and low‐income countries (LICs) to different extents, and the disease burden due to roadway dust is not uniformly distributed across socio‐economic classes. Roadway dust materials from paved and unpaved urban and rural roads were reported to contain organic constituents which are toxic and affect public health ...

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
