Study of the interaction between asphalt and recycled plastics in new polymer modified binders (PMB)
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this study is evaluating the interaction between several base pen grade asphalt binders (35/50, 50/70, 70/100, 160/220) and two different recycled plastics (EVA and HDPE), for a set of new polymer modified binders produced with different amounts of both recycled plastics. After analysing the results obtained for the several polymer modified binders evaluated in this study, including a commercial modified binder, it can be concluded that the new PMBs produced with the base bitumen 70/100 and 5% of each recycled plastic (HDPE or EVA) results in binders with very good performance, similar to that of the commercial modified binder. © 2017 Portuguese Society of Materials (SPM).

Laboratory Studies of the Effect of Recycled Glass Powder Additive on the Properties of Polymer Modified Asphalt Binders
In this paper, the effect of adding recycled glass powder (RGP) as a third component in polymer modified bitumen is studied. RGP and styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) is added to the base bitumen in order to prepare modified binders and mixtures. The initial study is performed to determine physical properties of unmodified, SBR modified and RGP-SBR modified asphalt binders which prove RGP's compat...
