Modification of asphalt binders with virgin polymers is a consolidated practice in pavement
construction, as it is an effective way to enhance pavement performance. In recent years …

In recent decades, the incessant disposal of plastic waste seriously endangers the natural
environment. As a major contributor to global plastic waste, recycled polyethylene (rPE) is …

Asphalt is widely employed in road construction due to its durability and ability to withstand
heavy traffic. However, the disposal of waste polymers has emerged as a significant …

Non-bituminous binders with sustainable characteristics have been developed as potential
roofing materials. A vegetable colophony rosin ester, waste cooking oil, waste crumb rubber …

The storage stability of polyethylene (PE) modified asphalt is a major constraint to its wide
application. In addition, PE raises the mixing and compaction temperature of asphalt …

Crumb rubber can be used as a bitumen or asphalt mixture modifier. Many investigations
showed promising properties of crumb rubber-modified bitumen. However, the performance …

Waste plastic, such as polyethylene (PE), and waste rubber tires, are pollutants that
adversely affect the environment. Thus, the ways these materials are used are important in …

In this study, a critical evaluation and the benefits of using a waste and a virgin polymer in an
asphalt mixture are presented. The present paper is the result of a three-year research effort …

It is frequently essential to add rejuvenators to recycled mixtures comprising reclaimed
asphalt pavement (RAP) to increase their performance. In this research, CR was …

The aim of this study is to implement both experimental and numerical approaches to
investigate the permanent deformation in asphalt paving mixtures modified with waste …
