Lin, P. (author), Liu, X. (author), Erkens, S. (author), Welvaarts, Bart (author), Brouns, Koen (author)Cold in-place recycling is gaining more attention worldwide because of its lower energy consumption, while the normally used asphalt emulsion and foamed asphalt cannot meet this requirement of short traffic disturbance and road performance of the surface layer. In this research, a polyurethane-modified cold binder (PMCB) was designed and...journal article 2023

Jing, R. (author), Apostolidis, P. (author), Liu, X. (author), Naus, Robbert (author), Erkens, S. (author), Scarpas, Athanasios (author)The rejuvenation of epoxy modified bituminous binders is a topic of much debate because such binders may not be able to melt at high temperatures and restore their properties using recycling agents. This paper presents the results of an experimental program developed to evaluate the re-usability of an epoxy modified bitumen, or epoxy bitumen, by...journal article 2021

Ren, S. (author), Liu, X. (author), Wang, H. (author), Fan, Weiyu (author), Erkens, S. (author)Recycling technology is widely used in the asphalt road construction due to its environmental and economic effects. Many efforts have focused on the performance restoration of aged base asphalt by adding light oil, but the possibility of recycling the aged asphalt using low-viscosity asphalt and polymers has been few explored. Therefore, the...journal article 2020

(author), Sangiorgi, Cesare (author), Lantieri, Claudio (author)This paper describes a project that is part of NL-LAB, a larger, long-term program at Delft University of Technology, Netherlands, which aims to establish the predictive capacity of the current European functional tests for Dutch asphalt concrete (AC) mixtures. In this NL-LAB program, the functional characteristics of resistance to rutting (EN...conference paper 2014
