        abstract = {This study investigates the effect of warm mix additives on the performance of polymer-modified bitumen (PMB-40) in asphalt mixtures. Warm mix asphalt (WMA) technologies allow production at lower temperatures, reducing fuel consumption, emissions, and improving workability. In this work, Zycotherm was added at 0.05%, 0.1%, and 0.15%, and lime was used as an additive at mixing temperatures of 165°C and 135°C. The mechanical performance was evaluated through Marshall Stability, Flow Value, Resilient Modulus, and volumetric parameters. Results indicate optimal performance at 0.1% Zycotherm at 165°C and lime at 135°C, demonstrating enhanced mechanical properties and environmental benefits.},
