Tabakovic, A. (author), Schlangen, E. (author)This paper presents a unique self-healing system for asphalt pavement which employs compartmented calcium-alginate fibres encapsulating an asphalt binder healing agent (rejuvenator). This system presents a novel method of incorporating rejuvenators into asphalt pavement mixtures. The compartmented fibres are used to distribute the rejuvenator...conference paper 2018

Tabakovic, A. (author), Post, W. (author), Cantero, D. (author), Copuroglu, Oguzhan (author), Garcia, Santiago J. (author), Schlangen, E. (author)This paper explores the potential use of compartmented alginate fibres as a new method of incorporating rejuvenators into asphalt pavement mixtures. The compartmented fibres are employed to locally distribute the rejuvenator and to overcome the problems associated with spherical capsules and hollow fibres. The work presents proof of concept of...journal article 2016

Su, J.F. (author), Qiu, J. (author), Schlangen, H.E.J.G. (author)Preservation and renovation bitumen of pavement is a big problem for the whole world. Traditionally, application rejuvenators is the only one method that can restore the original properties of the pavements. However, some puzzles still restrict its successful usage. Microencapsulation is a promising method to apply rejuvenator in bitumen. These...conference paper 2013

Qiu, J. (author), Schlangen, H.E.J.G. (author), Van de Ven, M.F.C. (author), Shirazi, M. (author)Reclaimed Asphalt (RA) is one of the largest fractions of raw materials used in road construction today. Probably over 90% of the total RA in the Netherlands is being reused in new asphalt constructions. RA contains aggregates coated with very hard bitumen (penetration grade of 10-20). During service, the bituminous binder loses its flexibility...conference paper 2013
