Abstract

Sustainability is very important in this world at this time. One of the best materials used for sustainability in asphalt concrete pavements is the warm mix asphalt (WMA) as well as the reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP). WMA technology has the ability to reduce production temperature to reduce the fuel usage and emissions. RAP is the old concrete asphalt mixture that is out of service and using it again leads to preservation of the virgin material. This search studied the viability of using WMA with different percentages of RAP (10%, 30%, and 50%) and compared them with control hot mix asphalt (HMA) and WMA. The Marshall properties, Tensile strength ratio (TSR), rut depth and fatigue life were determined in this work. The results showed that the tensile strength ratio (TSR) for HMA was better than that for WMA by 6%, rut depth for HMA was (4.37 mm) lower than that for WMA was (6.5mm), better fatigue life was obtained for WMA was (700 cycle) as compared to HMA was (500 cycle). In case of WMA with RAP (WMA-RAP), when the percentage of RAP increased with WMA, the moisture damage resistance improved by 2.5%, 13.3% and 15.4% for G1, G3 and G5 respectively, also the rutting resistance improved by 34.6%, 48% and 62.3% for G1, G3 and G5 respectively, but deteriorated of fatigue life by 45.8%, 74% and 88.5% for G1, G3 and G5 respectively.

Abstract

Advancing the multi-scale performance of asphalt pavements requires innovative binder modifications that address limitations in rutting resistance, fatigue resistance, and durability across the binder, mixture, and structural levels. This study evaluates the performance of asphalt cement, mixtures, and pavement systems modified with a combination of polyethylene (PE) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The binder was modified using 4% PE and varying CNT contents (0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2% by weight of the modified binder). Binder performance was assessed through conventional and rheological tests, including penetration, softening point, viscosity, performance grade (PG) evaluation, and master curve analysis. Mixture-level performance was evaluated using Marshall properties, rutting, resilient modulus, and fatigue tests. Long-term pavement behavior was predicted using VESYS 5W software. The results showed that incorporating 1.0% CNT with 4.0% PE significantly improved binder rheology, increasing the true failure temperature by approximately 10% compared to the reference binder. Complex modulus and phase angle master curves also indicated notable improvements at low frequencies. Mixtures containing 2% CNT demonstrated approximately one-third of the permanent strain observed in the reference mix, while PCNT1.0% exhibited the best fatigue resistance. These findings highlight the significant role of combining plastomeric modifiers (PE) with nanoscale materials (CNTs) in enhancing the performance of asphalt binders and mixtures.
