INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECTS OF MODİFİED BITUMEN ON ASPHALT CONCRETE PERFORMANCE BY INDUSTRIAL WASTE

Abstract

The seasonal change in temperature and loading nature has a significant effect on asphalt behavior because of its viscoelastic nature.  Several types of flexible pavement failure/distress occur due to this behavior of asphalt binder, among which rutting and fatigue cracks are very common. In this study, Low Density and High Density Polyethylene and Crumb rubber were used as additions to base bitumen (PG 64-10). 

Complex modulus (G*) and phase angle (δ) obtained from Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) are the basic perimeters used to evaluate the behavior of the binder in respect to rutting and fatigue cracking. It was concluded that Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), and Crumb Rubber (CR) modified binder showed significant improvement in rheological properties of the binder. Furthermore, recycling these municipal wastes will contribute to solving environmental problems in the of Middle East countries caused by the piling up of these wastes in dumpsites. 

 Environmental pollution is a major problem in developing countries like Egypt. Reuse of waste polymers is considered an attractive solution for environmental white pollution and reducing of the costs of road pavement and maintenance. This research aims to prepare environmentally friendly hot mix asphalt (HMA) for paving using some industrial wastes as polypropylene and polyester fibers. The solid materials in the mix include normal and highly porous aggregates. 5% and 10% of waste polymers by weight of the asphalt were used to prepare special binders. The samples were tested for their physical properties, chemical properties, aging, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA). The results revealed that the prepared HMA using 5% of waste polymer had high performance as compared to the ordinary one and the waste polymer could be used in road construction.
