Optical Characterization of Asphalt Binders Containing Wax Additives

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
In between thermal‐oxidative (heat and oxygen) and photo‐oxidative (ultraviolet irradiation and oxygen) aging process of bitumen, photo‐oxidative aging mainly depends on the optical properties of the asphalt binder. The higher the reflection (or the lower the absorption of the binders), the better the pavement serviceability.

Evaluation of the rheological behaviour of Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) modified binders [PDF]

, 2009
Several processes and products are available to produce warm mix asphalt (WMA). The use of those may reduce the mixing and compaction temperatures in relation to hot mix asphalt (HMA), ensuring a good performance of the pavement.

Influence of the Skid Resistance of Ultrathin Wearing Course with Various Types of Asphalt Binders

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Ultrathin wearing course (UTWC) has been widely applied in both asphalt pavements preventive maintenance and functional overlay. This study’s objective is to evaluate the influence of different modified asphalt binders with warm mix additives on the skid resistance of UTWC and to reveal the attenuation law of skid resistance of UTWC.
