A novel self-healing system: Towards a sustainable porous asphalt

Self-healing asphalt, aimed to produce a sustainable asphalt pavement using green technology, has been studied in the past two decades. Technologies including encapsulated rejuvenator and induction heating have been proposed, demonstrated in the laboratory, and gradually evaluated in field application. This paper looks into the synergy effect...

Experimental investigation of the performance of a hybrid self-healing system in porous asphalt under fatigue loadings

Self-healing asphalt, which is designed to achieve autonomic damage repair in asphalt pavement, offers a great life-extension prospect and therefore not only reduces pavement maintenance costs but also saves energy and reduces CO₂ emissions. The combined asphalt self-healing system, incorporating both encapsulated rejuvenator and...
