Özet

In civil engineering, the pavement, which is a mixture of aggregate and bitumen, is the layer most affected by traffic loads. For this reason, problems such as cracking, rutting, fatigue, aging and moisture damage often occur in the asphalt pavement layer throughout its service life. Such problems are generally caused by the increase in the number of heavily loaded vehicles, design and construction errors, climate, and environmental conditions. Scientists and engineers are continuously working on improving the performance of asphalt pavements. Some recent studies in particular, have focused on improving multiple properties of asphalt at the same time by chemically synthesizing a novel material in a laboratory environment. The purpose of this study is to present a review of the effects of chemically synthesized boron containing additives on the performance of asphalt binders and to inform researchers. The findings of this study determined that used in appropriate proportions these new additives had a significant effect on the rheological properties of asphalt such as rutting. This article is expected to serve as a reference and a guide for the future studies of in the production new synthesis additives as asphalt modifiers.
