Based on the results of these studies, there was no evidence of reduced susceptibility to cyromazine or dicyclanil and the periods of protection of sheep against L. cuprina were unaffected and consistent with the registered label claims.
The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) has undertaken research into polymer modified asphalt binders in hot mix asphalt (HMA) with the expectation that such binders have the potential to provide more cost-effective, long-lasting asphalt concrete pavement. The research has involved three field installations with control sections of conventional asphalt and a laboratory study. Modifiers used in field installations were ethylene-vinyl-acetate (EVA), styrene-butadiene (SB), and styrene-butadiene-rubber (SBR). This paper discusses ODOT's research efforts with polymer modified HMA, and summarizes the findings of this research. ODOT's adoption of the Pacific Coast Conference on Asphalt Specifications' “Performance Based Asphalt Cement Specifications” is the next logical step based on knowledge gained from these research efforts.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
