In the modern world nanotechnologies are an integral part of successful and progressive development of all the areas of activity. Materials science is not an exception. The authors studied the method of nanomodification and its influence on the performance properties of polymer-modified binder (PMB) and asphalt concrete, produced on their basis. It is established that nanomodified PMB are less susceptible to aging, which is a consequence of the processes of peptization of asphalt-resin complexes (ARC) in the structure of the modified binder and the crosslinking with the polymer matrix. It is revealed that nanotubes (SWCN or MWCN) used as a modifier, act as crosslinking agent and the inhibitor of the aging process in a PMB. The influence of nanomodified PMB on strength and deformation properties of asphalt concrete is investigated. It was found out that the use of modified binder in the asphalt concrete mixtures enhances the water resistance of asphalt concrete, heat resistance and shear-resistance.

The possibility of using waste porcelain stoneware - a high-strength non-porous, dense material as a finely crushed mineral part of asphalt concrete with 0-5 mm fraction has been established. The adhesive additive Bitaden content was revealed, that intensifies porcelain stoneware interaction with bitumen due to the additional hydrogen bonds formation, the particles’ contact plane activation with the action of van der Waals forces. The conditions for obtaining asphalt concrete mixtures of type B, grade 1 and G, grade 2 of the optimal grain composition with a reduced content of BND 60/90 bitumen have been developed. Physical and mechanical properties are characterized by an increase in the water resistance of asphalt concrete samples based on porcelain stoneware, compressive strength and shear resistance.

Rutting is an important problem in Russia today. One of the ways to improve the properties of asphalt concrete mixtures and reduce wear on road surfaces is to modify the binder with polymer additives. The aim of the work was to test the selected compositions of MMAC mixtures containing bitumen modified with the addition of sevilene and rubber for rutting resistance, which make it possible to predict the formation of plastic rut. It was revealed that when using sevilen in its composition, with an increase in the concentration of vinyl acetate, the depth of the track increases in comparison with the industrial polymer-bitumen binder. It is shown that with the introduction of a complex additive based on sevilen and rubber into the binder composition, its rutting decreases and the service life of the road surface increases, which indicates a high elasticity of the complex-modified binder. In this work, the calculation of the service life of the coating before the formation of a critical rut requiring repair of the coating is carried out. It was found that in terms of the slope of the rutting curve and the proportional depth of the rut, the compositions with sevilene and rubber are not inferior to traditional industrial PBB.

The aim of the article is an improvement of abrasion resistance of materials of road pavements and giving practical recommendations during the pavement designing to the construction organizations. The Prall Test method was used to identify the factors influencing the wear resistance of asphalt concrete. Studied mixtures and materials are typical for the highway construction in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Tatarstan. The influence of such factors as the type of mix, the size of the aggregate, the type of binder and the quality of the aggregate was studied. The study shows that the increase of the wear resistance and coarseness of the aggregate when using a polymer-modified binder and the reduction of the content of air voids increase the wear resistance of asphalt concrete mixtures.

Abstract A significant increase in traffic intensity and increased axle loads of vehicles on the roads led to the fact that asphalt concrete is not able to provide the required durability of road surfaces. The durability of asphalt concrete pavements is directly related to the quality of the materials used, primarily bitumen. Bitumen is most susceptible to changes under the influence of traffic loads and weather conditions. At the same time, bitumen largely determines the condition of the road surface. The behavior of bitumen can be changed by modifying it with additives. The novelty of bitumen modification lies in the fact that the addition of polymer to bitumen makes it possible to obtain a road surface that is resistant to cracking at low temperatures and to provide fatigue strength at high temperatures. Rutting resistance is also achieved. An important role in the choice of the modifier is played by economic issues related to the rise in the cost of coating, as well as the need to use additional equipment, the stability of the modified binder during storage and transportation, etc. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were used as a modifier for asphalt concrete mixtures. During the experiment, a significant improvement in the main indicators of asphalt concrete mixtures was revealed, as well as the maximum permissible deviations for the amount of binder in the asphalt concrete mixture and for the main indicators were observed. Moreover, the most important thing that has been achieved is a significant increase in rutting resistance by rolling a loaded wheel.
