MORPHOLOGY AND RHEOLOGY OF PP AND LLDPE MODIFIED BITUMENS AND THEIR EFFECT ON ASPHALT MIX PROPERTIES

The deterioration of flexible bound bituminous road layers in the form of creep deformation or fatigue cracking is caused by a number of contributing factors. Of primary importance are the influences of traffic volume, axle loading, mix volumetrics, material properties and environmental conditions....
