Performance evaluation of REOB-modified asphalt binders and mixtures

This study evaluated a limited number, but well-controlled group of asphalt binders of the same performance grade made with a wide range of recycled engine oil bottoms (REOB) contents; 0%, 2.5%, 6% and 15%. The most practical indicator of the possible presence of a considerable quantity of REOB with measureable changes to the rheological and performance characteristics was the difference between the bending beam rheometer (BBR) m-value...
