The study evaluated the response under monotonic loading (Marshall and indirect traction) and the resistance to moisture damage and abrasion of a warm mix asphalt (WMA) manufactured with an additive called HUSIL, when the coarse fraction of the aggregate was replaced by a blast furnace slag (BFS). In conclusion, it is reported that the additive is capable of reducing the manufacturing temperature of the asphalt mixture by 30 ° C. Additionally, the BFS can be used as a partial substitute for the coarse fraction of aggregates in WMA, since when replacing it in 21%, the mixture reach a significant increase in stiffness, resistance to moisture damage, and similar resistance to abrasion with respect to the control asphalt mixture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
