A review on fatigue and rutting performance of asphalt mixes (2011, background): “Modified binder (example, polymer modified binder) was also recommended to improve resistance of asphalt binder against rutting and thermal cracking (fracture of the pavement due to the lack of flexibility at low temperatures) of asphalt pavement (Lu and Isacsson, 2001; Navarro et al., 2004).”
Micro-structural and rheological characteristics of SBS-asphalt blends during their manufacturing (2009, background): “In order to enhance the mechanical properties and the long time behaviour, a new generation of blend asphaltic has been developed through the incorporation of different kind of polymers [1–3].”
Composition analysis of crumb rubber during interaction with asphalt and effect on properties of binder (2013, background): “…of the CRMA samples with two CRM types in Figure 6(a),(b) indicate that, increasing the dissolution of EN CRM leads to extension of plateau region in its phase angle graph which is an indicative of creation of physical or chemical internal network in the matrix (Lu and Isacsson 2000, Airey 2003).”
