Ageing is a common phenomenon that seriously affects the performance and service life of
asphalt pavements. In this paper, multiscale evaluations of bitumen ageing behaviour were …

Single reuse of asphalt is an approved practice, but its success highly depends on restoring
the properties of the aged binder. Rejuvenators have become increasingly important for …

Self-healing microcapsules encapsulating asphalt rejuvenator were synthesized by in-situ
polymerization. Micromorphology, chemical structure, thermal stability and salt resistance of …

To investigate the aging differences of asphalt films in the vertical aggregate direction, a
three-layers model of oxygen-asphalt-aggregate was generated to explore the molecular …

Asphalt mixtures age during service in the field, primarily as the result of chemical changes
in the bituminous binder phase. The ageing phenomenon changes the properties of the …

Asphalt binders are complex mixtures with a molecular configuration that varies with source
and its chemical composition is not fully understood. Understanding the building blocks of …

Asphalt binders change their properties over time under natural and anthropogenic
influences since they are of organic origin. This leads to a deterioration of the mechanical …

The asphalt mixtures containing reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) are gradually used in
pavement. When the RAP content exceeds 25%, the influence of RAP properties on the …

In recent years, the wax-based warm mix additives are always doped into the asphalt to
lower the construction temperatures, which can lead to the substantial energy savings and …

The effects of short and long-term thermo-oxidative aging on stripping resistance, rut depth,
stiffness modulus, fracture and fatigue resistances of asphalt concretes have been …
