Polymer modified asphalt binders
TLDR
A review of research that has been conducted on polymer modified binders over the last three decades can be found in this paper, where the elastic recovery test is good at determining the presence of polymers in an asphalt binder but is less successful at predicting field performance of the pavement.About:

Laboratory Evaluation on Performance of Compound-Modified Asphalt for Rock Asphalt/Styrene–Butadiene Rubber (SBR) and Rock Asphalt/Nano-CaCO3
TL;DR: In this paper, compound asphalt modified by Buton rock asphalt (BRA) was chosen as the study subject, and two kinds of modifiers (SBR and nano-CaCO3) were selected as the compound modifiers, and then implemented to improve the low-temperature performance of the binder.

Ali Foroutan Mirhosseini,Amir Kavussi,Mohammad Hossain Jalal Kamali,Mohammad Mehdi Khabiri,Abolfazl Hassani +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of these additives on the fatigue behavior of asphalt binders and mixes was investigated, and correlation equations were developed to link fatigue behaviour of binders to those of mixes.

Physical Properties and Microstructures of Organic Rectorites and their Modified Asphalts
TL;DR: In this paper, three kinds of organic rectorites (ORECs) were prepared by selecting dodecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (1231), lauryl dimethyl benzyl ammonium (1227), and stearyl trimethylammonium chloride(1831) as organic modifiers to modify Na-REC.

Effect of incorporating different waste materials in bitumen
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the incorporation of different waste materials in bitumen, namely waste motor oil and different polymers, to improve the performance of the conventional bitumen.

Design approach for epoxy modified bitumen to be used in antiskid surfaces on asphalt pavement
TL;DR: In this article, a two-component Epoxy Modified Bitumen (EMB) was used as binder for antiskid surfaces to prevent aggregates from raveling.

Polymer modified asphalt
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an overview of the characteristics of polymerasphalt binders, mostly used in the paving industry, focusing on the relationships of composition and formulation with the properties of the binder, and the relationship of binder properties and performance of the mixture.

Asphalt modified by styrene-butadiene-styrene triblock copolymer: Morphology and model
TL;DR: In this paper, the styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS! triblock copolymer) was used to modify the asphalt binder and the morphology and engi- neering properties of the binders were investigated using transmission electron microscopy and dynamic shear rheometer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymer-Modified Asphalt Cements Used in the Road Construction Industry: Basic Principles
TL;DR: In this paper, the basic principles of bitumen-polymer compatibility, the mechanism for modification, and the effect of the components on the properties of the modified binders are presented along with several specific problems related to the use of these products.
Classification of asphalt binders into simple and complex binders
TL;DR: The NCHRP 9-10 Project as mentioned in this paper evaluated the suitability of using the Superpave binder and mixture test system for modified asphalt binders, and the results indicated that modified binders will be used more in the future and that there are major concerns regarding the applicability of the superpave PG-grading system to modified asphalt binder.

Characteristics of polymers and polymer-modified binders
TL;DR: In this article, the properties of a number of polymers commonly proposed for polymer-modified bitumens (PMBs) were studied to suggest a way to select the polymer suitable for the required application; the prediction of the performance in the final application would allow bypass of the tests on PMBs and asphalt mixtures.
