Effects of ageing on the damage tolerance of polymer modified bitumens investigated through the LAS test and fluorescence microscopy (2020)
Journal Article
Cuciniello, G., Leandri, P., Losa, M., & Airey, G. (2020). Effects of ageing on the damage tolerance of polymer modified bitumens investigated through the LAS test and fluorescence microscopy. International Journal of Pavement Engineering, 23(4), 1-12. https://doi.org/10.1080/10298436.2020.1788031

The effects of polymer modification on the durability of Polymer Modified Bitumens (PMBs) still remain relatively unclear due to partial understanding of the combined effects of ageing and loading on damage accumulation. This paper investigates the e... Read More about Effects of ageing on the damage tolerance of polymer modified bitumens investigated through the LAS test and fluorescence microscopy.
