Characterisation of bitumen through multiple ageing-rejuvenation cycles (2024)
Journal Article

The multiple recycling of bitumen offers the possibility of reusing it for repeated lifecycles and achieve a higher degree of circularity of materials used in pavement construction. Aiming to identify the prospect, this study aged bitumen in a labora... Read More about Characterisation of bitumen through multiple ageing-rejuvenation cycles.

Use of Hansen Solubility Parameters (HSP) in the selection of highly effective rejuvenators for aged bitumen (2024)
Journal Article

While there is considerable research regarding the recycling and reuse of aged bitumen in terms of the evaluation of rheological properties, there is not much fundamental understanding regarding the underlying mechanisms of the rejuvenation process....

Investigation of the bonding properties of bitumen using a novel modified binder bond strength test (2024)
Journal Article

The binder bond strength (BBS) test can directly quantify the bonding of bitumen-stone joints. However, the index "bond strength" used in this method cannot provide a clear distinction when evaluating the performance of various bitumen, and some resu...

Optimising the dosage of bio-rejuvenators in asphalt recycling: A rejuvenation index based approach (2024)
Journal Article

While significant research efforts have been devoted to the rejuvenation of aged bitumen using bio-rejuvenators, a universally recognised approach for dosage optimisation is still yet to be established. Aiming to develop standardised methods to deter... Read More about Optimising the dosage of bio-rejuvenators in asphalt recycling: A rejuvenation index based approach.

Evaluating the ageing degrees of bitumen by rheological and chemical indices (2023)
Journal Article

The ageing of bitumen is an inevitable phenomenon which is still challenging to be characterised. This paper aims at evaluating the ageing degrees of bitumen comprehensively. There were six types of bitumen being aged to five levels for comparing pur... Read More about Evaluating the ageing degrees of bitumen by rheological and chemical indices.
