  • Abstract:
  • Bitumen is a good binding material that gives rigidity and tough when it goes to room temperature. Bitumen combines with the gravel and gives more stability, due to properties of bitumen, it has ability to become liquid when we raise temperature, and becomes solid when it gets to room temperature. But now a day’s normal room temperature 25oc to 38oC, due to increasing of this temperature in environment because of several conditions such as global warming, increasing of chloro-florocorbons, emission of CO (carbon monoxide) from the vehicles and other factors. Now a day’s rutting failure occurring in all roads due to increasing of temperature in environment the bitumen reaching the softening point, so that the pavement gets week in day time. At the same time the heavy load vehicles pass on this pavement the rutting occurs. In order to overcame from this problem, I would be like to change bitumen softening point by adding the additive sasobit for the bitumen. By adding sasobit for bitumen, several properties of bitumen well change. Such as enhanced workability, improved process reliability, temperature reduction (Warm Mix) and extended service life
