Abstract:Asphalt pavements are exposed to traffic loading and adverse environmental effects such as rain and oxidation which result in decreasing their relaxation capabilities and the initiation of cracks. Recent research highlights the importance of developing long life pavements. One of the possible ways is to utilize innovative maintenance techniques such as self-healing technologies in order to reverse the aging process in asphalt binder. So as to achieve this goal, self-healing microcapsules seems to be an effecti… Show more
