Insight into the compatibility behaviors between various rejuvenators and aged bitumen: Molecular dynamics simulation and experimental validation

The compatibility potential of rejuvenators plays an important role in improving the blending degree of rejuvenated bitumen. This study aims at estimating the efficiency of molecular dynamics (MD) simulation in predicting the compatibility between rejuvenators and aged bitumen, and exploring the influence of rejuvenator type, aging degree of...

Rheological properties, compatibility, and storage stability of SBS latex-modified asphalt

A styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) latex modifier can be used for asphalt modification due to the fact of its energy-saving, construction convenience, and economic advantages. The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of asphalt type and SBS latex dosage on the rheological properties, compatibility, and storage stability of...
