Characterization of Fatigue Properties of Binders and Mastics at Intermediate Temperatures using Dynamic Shear Rheometer

Completion Date: 2013

Funding Agency: University Transportation Research Center, Region II (UTRC2)

Abstract: The objectives of this project included analyzing the effect of different dust to binder ratios with different types of binders on the fatigue life. The objectives of this project also involved comparing the fatigue lives of long-term aged neat and polymer-modified binders with and without dust.
