TL;DR: In this paper, various nanomaterials used in asphalt modification are initially presented, followed by the methods employed to modify the asphalt with these materials and finally the effects of nanommaterials on the performance of base asphalt are presented and the modification mechanisms are discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, an organophilic modification with DDAC results in an obvious increase of interlayer spacing of Ca-MMT, and the OMMT nano-lamellas can be completely exfoliated during the preparation of modified asphalt.

TL;DR: In this article, waste packaging polyethylene (WPE)/organic montmorillonite (OMMT) nanocomposites were prepared and used as an asphalt-modifying agent.

TL;DR: In this paper, retrieved packaging waste polyethylene and waste rubber powder were selected as modifiers to modify the ordinary oil asphalt, and the rotating film oven test was adopted to study the aging process of the modified asphalt.

TL;DR: In this article, the use of packaging-waste polyethylene (WPE) was used to replace the ordinary polymer modifier in the modification of raw asphalt, and the pavement properties of the modified asphalt were studied.
