Investigating the Rheological Properties of Carbon Nanotubes/Polymer Composites Modified Asphalt

Abstract: The utilization of nanomaterials in the field of binder materials for road paving has attracted researchers’ attention in recent years. This study presented the performance properties of a binder modified with carbon nanotubes (CNT) and polyethylene (PE). The rheological properties, adhesion behavior, morphology, and storage stability of the modified asphalt were investigated. Experimental analysis indicated a positive effect of CNT/PE composites on the performance of the binder. The results indicate that the … Show more

“…The penetration decreased by 42% and 43.5% respectively, which has similar effects with the SBS modifier on the asphalt. Meanwhile, the highest influence of these modifiers could be on the viscosity of the asphalt [ 32 ]. PE-modified asphalt and PP-modified asphalt increased the viscosity of asphalt by 61.4% and 82.5% respectively, indicating good workability and consistency in road construction.…”

“…Due to the strong van der Waals force on the surface of CNTs, it can prevent the destruction of the asphalt micelle structure during the experiment and increase the viscosity. In addition, the temperature sensitivity of the sealants is relatively high in the temperature range of 135–160 °C, and the viscosity of the sealant varies obviously with temperature [ 41 ]. At the temperature of 160–200 °C, the increase of CNTs content had no significant effect on the viscosity of the sealants.…”

“…For this reason, in recent times, the various multidimensional nanomaterials that have been applied for the improvement of different material property. As are those of nanometer size, making them promising additives for the reinforcement of materials with good performance in asphalt [5]. Modifications are essential to improve the efficiency of asphalt mixtures and, to some extent, solve problems of premature failure [6].…”
