However, these properties get improved with the increase in the ageing time of bitumen. The ageing time considerably loses its significance after 15% graphite content by weight of bitumen in terms of stiffness modulus and load repetition number. Liu et al. [16] evaluated the properties of asphalt-based composite with graphite and mine powders.
Epoxy asphalt mixtures have been extensively used in the construction of steel deck bridges. The fatigue cracking formed during long-term service has become the main failure of epoxy asphalt mixtures due to the inherent brittleness of epoxy resin. To improve the toughness of the mixture to resist fatigue cracking, graphene nanoplatelets …

2. The mixing time and compaction of the bitumen must be adequate which can be done by emulsions of suitable grades or use of cutbacks by heating the bitumen and aggregates prior to mixing. (Pavement Materials: Bitumen, 2006) 3. The bitumen and aggregates should be adequate in the mix to enhance adhesion properties.
Graphite can not only effectively decrease the electrical resistivity of asphalt mixture but also has a good rutting resistance, and it can be easily dispersed in the mixture.

The mixing uniformity is strongly dependent on the structural parameters, operating parameters, and the using parameter of the mixer. For the mixer with a speed 45 rev min −1, it is recommended to blend the aggregate and asphalt before and after adding graphite powder for 9 and 30 s respectively, in the common mixer material filling rate.

Since the asphalt binder and carbon based fillers have strong adhesion, the high mixing difficulty of the nanoplatelet graphite and carbon black can be caused from the very high surface area. On the other hand, the lower viscosity of the mastics containing A505, A508, and A99 – even though they have slightly higher surface area – than the ...
The asphalt binders used in this work were upgraded with styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) [].SBS is widely acknowledged for its adaptability at low temperatures and its capacity to increase a binder's flexibility at high temperatures [].By reducing the blending heat and the viscosity of high-temperature asphalt, this SBS …
The benefits of warm mix asphalt, such as reduced energy consumption, lowered emissions, and elimination of visible smoke, are well-known in the asphalt paving industry. Warm mix technology allows mix to be prepared and placed at lower temperatures than conventional hot mix. To achieve this, the viscosity of the liquid asphalt cement (AC) …
Graphite can transform more free asphalt to structural asphalt depending on its high specific surface area. The softening point of bitumen increases from 45 °C to 70 …
The purpose of this research was to promote the recycling of pellet asphalt with Crumb Rubber Modifier (CRM) and Graphite Nanoplatelet (GNP) in pothole restoration. In this study, several laboratory tests were carried out on mixes containing CRM content ratios of 5%, 10%, and 20% and GNP content of 3% and 6% in order to identify …

The mixing and compaction temperature which ultimately depends upon viscosity of bitumen affects durability. In order to achieve proper bitumen-aggregate mixing, the bitumen should attain a viscosity range beyond which the bitumen would be sufficiently thick to properly coat the aggregates and below which the bitumen flows.
