Nanotechnology utilizes the research and technology established at the nuclear and molecular or macromolecular levels to comprehend the nanoscale phenomena. In road construction, the bituminous materials are used in enormous amounts. The macroscopic mechanical conduct of these materials still largely relies on microstructure and physical characteristics at a micro and nano scale level. For many years, scientists and engineers have been exploring nanotechnology in civil engineering, but nanotechnology use in this sector has been limited. Nanotechnology has caught the interest of experts and has progressively penetrated into the field of pavement engineering. The article reviews the published works carried out to study the use of nanomaterials in asphalt pavements and illustrates the technique used to enhance asphalt features by the use of these nanomaterials. In this review, multiple nanomaterials are discussed followed by characterization of these nanomaterials, preparation techniques of modified asphalt binder, and finally the effect of nanomaterials on the efficiency of base asphalt binder as well as the asphalt mixture. The primary focus continues on the use of nanotechnology in pavement engineering to achieve a better atmosphere for society based on recognized pavement engineering requirements and difficulties.

This research examines the impacts of adding various source and percentages of waste engine oil (WEO) on the physical and rheological characteristics of asphalt binder comprising aged asphalt binder. A base asphalt binder with penetration grade of 80/100 and aged binder were blended with three sources of WEO at 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% by the weight of asphalt binder. These oils were collected from light vehicle (motorcycle), heavy vehicle (lorry), and heavy machinery (tractor). Penetration and softening point procedures were done to define the physical properties of the unmodified and modified asphalt binders. Meanwhile, the rheological property was evaluated with a dynamic shear rheometer (DSR). The results show that the high percentages of WEO increased the penetration and decreased the softening point. The addition of 15% and 20% of WEO especially from heavy machinery reduced the rutting resistance. Therefore, it is recommended that the modification of aged binder with these types of WEO should be up to 10%.

Aging has a significant effect on performance of asphalt materials. Reliable characterization of asphalt binder properties with aging is crucial to improving asphalt binder specifications as well as modification and formulation methods. The objective of this study is to correlate the laboratory conditioning methods with field aging using evolution of binder rheological parameters with time and pavement depth. Loose mixtures are aged in the lab (5 and 12 days aging at 95°C, and 24 h at 135°C) and recovered binder rheological properties are compared with those from different layers of field cores. The virgin binder results with 20 h pressure aging vessel (PAV) aging are also included. Binder testing is conducted using a dynamic shear rheometer with a 4 mm plate over a wide range of frequencies and temperatures. Rheological parameters calculated from the master curves, performance grade system, and binder Christensen–Anderson–Marasteanu model are used to evaluate changes with aging. The field aging gradient is evaluated, and the laboratory conditioning durations corresponding with the field aging durations at different pavement depths are calculated. The results show that 5 days of aging can simulate around 8 years of field aging (in New Hampshire) for the top 12.5 mm pavement, and 12 days’ aging can simulate approximately 20 years; 20 h PAV binder aging is not adequate to capture the long-term performance of the pavement. This study provides a way to optimize the laboratory conditioning durations and evaluate the performance of asphalt material with respect to pavement life (time) and depth (location) within the pavement structure.
