Performance Evaluation of Nano-Montmorillonite/SBS Modified Asphalt Paving Mixtures

Article Preview

Abstract:

To provide the valuable references for pavement materials applied in various climatic zones, a series of asphalts paving mixtures including common asphalt mixture, SBS modified asphalt mixture and nano-montmorillonite (NMMT)/SBS composite modified asphalt mixture were designed. Marshall tests were carried out to evaluate the effect of different modifiers on the property of these asphalt paving mixtures. Compared with the other two mixtures, NMMT/SBS composite modified asphalt shows fine mechanical performance and moisture susceptibility. These results indicate that NMMT/SBS as a composite modifier can result in excellent properties for asphalt paving mixture.
