Evaluation of the Aging of Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene Modified Asphalt Binder with Different Polymer Additives by Bangwei Wu, Chufan Luo, Zhaohui Pei, Chuangchuang Chen, Ji Xia, Peng Xiao

“…Moreover, the Carbonyl Aging Indicator (CAI) of SBS with polymer additives becomes lower under both TFOT and PAV conditions, indicating that polymer additives can improve the aging resistance of SBS asphalt, of which HVM modifies the aging resistance best. Complex Modulus Aging Indicator (CMAI) and Storage Modulus Aging Indicator (SMAI) have the best correlation coefficients with CAI, and the two aging indicators can be used to predict the aging degree of polymer modified asphalt binders.…”

Wheat straw anticorrosion analysis based on pore area ratio and the effect of straw on the shear strength of silty soil by Liyun PENG, Zhaocheng LI, Mingjie LIU, Changze CUI

“…Based on the pore area ratio, this paper analyzes the anticorrosion mechanism and anticorrosion effect of polyvinyl alcohol on straw, the effect of anticorrosion on the tensile strength through the tensile strength test and the effect of straw on the shear strength of silty soil through the direct shear test. The results show that polyvinyl alcohol exerts its own anti-corrosion performance, fills the straw pores to reduce water absorption channels, and forms a protective film on the straw surface to block water from entering to achieve anti-corrosion. …”
