Mechanical and compaction properties of graphite nanoplatelet-modified asphalt binders and mixtures

This paper presents an experimental investigation of the properties of asphalt binders and mixtures modified with graphite nanoplatelets (GNPs). The focus is on studying the effects of GNP addition on low-temperature rheological and fracture properties of asphalt binders and mixtures and on compaction effort of asphalt mixtures. This is the first time that these effects are investigated and significant findings are reported. The study considers...
