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:

Curing behavior of epoxy asphalt
TL;DR: In this paper, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was used to analyze the effect of curing temperature on viscosity of epoxy asphalt and changes of mechanical properties with curing time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study on aging behavior and prediction of SBS modified asphalt with various contents based on PCA and PLS analysis
TL;DR: In this article, a Partial Least Squares method (PLS) was used to build model for predicting aging behaviors of SBS modified asphalt, which had good robustness for predicting the physical and rheological properties changes during the asphalt aging process.

Nonlinear rheological behaviors of epoxy asphalt binder compared to base asphalt binder and SBS modified asphalt binder at above ambient temperatures
TL;DR: In this article, large amplitude oscillatory shear was used to characterize the nonlinear rheological behaviors of three typical asphalt binders including base asphalt (BA), thermoplastic styrene-butadiene-styrene modified asphalt (SBA), and thermosetting epoxy asphalt (EA) at temperatures of 25, 45, 65, 85, 100, respectively.

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.

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.
