This study investigated the effects of adding various percentages of styrene–butadiene rubber (SBR) on the engineering properties and performance of asphaltic concrete. SBR was added into the mixture at 0%, 1%, 3%, and 5% on a mass-to-mass basis. Conventional bitumen used in this study was 80/100 PEN. The performances of SBR on the asphalt mixture properties were evaluated based on Marshall Stability, abrasion loss, resilient modulus, and dynamic creep test. Results indicated an improvement in the engineering properties and performance with the addition of SBR content. For instance, stability increased by 18.8% as the SBR content increased from 0% to 5%. Dynamic creep stiffness also increased by 46.2%. Similarly, the resilient modulus was also found to increase by approximately 84.6%.

Bound rubber in carbon black (CB) filled rubber (natural rubber (NR) and styrene–butadiene rubber (SBS)) was prepared by the solvent method. The nanomorphology of CB and rubber/CB soluble rubber was observed by atomic force microscope. The results show that high-structure CB DZ13 has a "grape cluster" structure which consists of many original particles with the grain size of about 30–50 nm. Graphitizing process of CB decreases the amount of bound rubber. The NR/DZ13 soluble rubber with island–rim structure has been obtained, where the islands are DZ13 particles and the rims around the islands are occupied by NR film. But when the graphitized DZ13 particles were used as fillers of rubber, we have only observed that some graphitized DZ13 particles were deposited on the surface of the globular-like NR molecular chains, instead of the spreading of NR molecular chains along the surface of DZ13 particles, indicating that graphitized DZ13 has lower chemical activity than ungraphitized DZ13. Especially, we have already observed an interesting unusual bound rubber phenomenon, the blocked "bracelet" structure with the diameter of about 600 nm in which CB particles were blocked in ring-shaped SBS monomer.

Payne and Mullins effects are widely observed in reinforced rubber materials. The mechanisms by which these two effects work are not fully understood. Several models have been proposed, including molecular slippage model, bond rupture model, and filler rupture model. In this study, two different compounds of styrene–butadiene rubber were prepared using carbon black and silica as reinforcement fillers, respectively, and subjected to cyclic fatigue process. Tensile, creep, and relaxation tests were performed on fatigued samples to assess the residual stress–strain behavior by comparing with the results from similar tests using pristine (no fatigue) samples. When the tensile stiffness behavior of fatigued specimens was evaluated, we noted that the stiffness versus strain behavior which exhibited a monotonic decreasing–increasing behavior with the pristine specimens changed to what we call “dual-stiffness” condition, where the specimens went through a first (low) turning point as with the pristine samples, but then dropped off of a peak to go through a second softening stage, similar to the first softening stage of the pristine material. We believe that such spiking (dual) stiffness behavior characterized by a “Peak” point represents a combination of both Payne and the Mullins effects active during fatigue loading. We conclude that molecular slippage and bond rupture are the main factors affecting the physical properties of carbon black-filled compounds, while breakage and recombination of the filler are the key mechanisms affecting the silica-filled compounds during the fatigue process.
