Interfacial adhesion at the molecular level is a complex process, where the key players
(asphalt, aggregates, water, and air) are in a dynamic state of structural equilibrium, varying …

The interfacial properties between asphalt and aggregate depend largely on the surface
properties of aggregate. Therefore, the research on the influence of aggregate surface …

Recycling of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) faces significant challenges due to
interfacial interaction problems within reclaimed asphalt mixtures (RAM). This review …

The damage mechanism of severe salt corrosion on asphalt surfaces should be revealed at
molecular scale. This study utilized molecular dynamics (MD) and density functional theory …

When water interacts with bitumen, the diffusion and cohesion characteristics between the
components of bitumen are negatively impacted. Molecular dynamics simulations were …

The adhesion between asphalt and aggregates is a complex physicochemical interfacial
interaction that plays a critical role in determining the durability of asphalt pavement. This …

The incorporation of crumb rubber (CR) makes the asphalt-aggregate interfacial properties
highly complex and uncertain, while water is a key environmental factor causing interfacial …
