Rheological, physicochemical, and microstructural properties of asphalt binder modified by fumed silica nanoparticles

Abstract Warm mix asphalt (WMA) is gaining increased attention in the asphalt paving industry as an eco-friendly and sustainable technology. WMA technologies are favorable in producing asphalt mixtures at temperatures 20–60 °C lower in comparison to conventional hot mix asphalt. This saves non-renew...
