Abstract

This work is devoted to a review of researches and developments related to the modification of asphalt concrete mixtures with various types of epoxy resins and hardeners. The development of the world economy is impossible without the use of new technologies in the construction of roads and bridges. One of the most effective options for modifying traditional asphalt concrete road pavements is the introduction of epoxy compositions into the bitumen composition. The main result of using epoxy asphalt is a noticeable increase in physical and mechanical characteristics and moisture resistance compared to a conventional asphalt.
