Abstract

India has a road network of over 4,689,842 kilometers in 2015, the second largest road network in the world. It has primarily flexible pavement design which constitutes more than 98% of the total road network. India being a very vast country has widely varying climates, terrains, construction materials and mixed traffic conditions both in terms of loads and volumes. Increased traffic factors such as heavier loads, higher traffic volume and higher tire pressure demand higher performance pavements. So to minimize the damage of pavement surface and increase durability of flexible pavement, the conventional bitumen needs to be improved. Different types of additives are currently used in bitumen for asphalt modification. Such as

  1. Styrene – butadiene – styrene (SBS)
  2. Natural rubber
  • Ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA)
  1. Polyethylene (PE)
  2. Resin
  3. Epoxy Resin
  4. Polyurethane Resin
  5. Acrylic Resin
  6. Phenolic resin
