COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF FURAN RESIN MODIFIED ASPHALT MIX AND CONVENTIONAL ASPHALT MIX
Journal Title: International Journal of Civil Engineering and Technology - Year 2019, Vol 10, Issue 3
Abstract
Bitumen used in hot mix plant must possess specific characteristic. There are numerous method to reach these properties. These properties can be achieved by using some specific method. Use of polymer modifiers is one of them. In this paper effect of furan resin which is a polymer used as a bitumen modifier is studied. Modified asphalt mixture were prepared by furan resin in asphalt. Furan resin is derived from furfural and it possess thermosetting properties and exhibit great physical strength. Previous studies shows that addition of furan resin as a bitumen modifier increases the consistency, ageing resistance, moisture susceptibility and temperature. In the present study furan resin was added to base bitumen in different proportions with an increment of 0.5% and percentage of best performance was adopted. The results shows that addition of furan resin in bitumen increases the stability and performance of pavement.
