Abstract:Compared with traditional hot mix asphalt (HMA), wax based warm mix asphalt (WWMA) can be mixed with the aggregate at a lower temperature and achieve the desired compaction. However, the adhesion performance of WWMA on aggregate is uncertain. To evaluate the adhesion performance of asphalt and aggregate, researchers used contact angle test, pull-off test, and ultrasonic washing experiments. However, these tests cannot adequately explain the microscopic mechanism of the interface between asphalt and aggregate. … Show more
“…Four papers focus on the characterization of different asphalt binders (e.g., polymermodified, warm mix recycled and wax-modified binders) via experiments and molecular dynamics simulations [2][3][4][5]. The Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR)-and Bending Beam Rheometer (BBR)-based rheological tests are the mainstream methods to evaluate the high-, intermediate-and low-temperature performance of the asphalt binders.…”
Pavement materials such as asphalt mixtures, granular aggregates and soils exhibit complex material properties and engineering performance under external loading and environmental conditions [...]

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.
