MANGANESE-MODIFIED ASPHALT PAVEMENTS: A STATUS REPORT

This paper is a chronological account of the experimental asphaltic concrete highway sections that have been constructed using manganese-modified asphalt cements. Described are the potential performance improvements attainable with the chemical modifier and the changes that have been required in the way it is used to obtain benefits without undesirable side effects. The details of the laboratory testing before highway construction and the evaluations carried out with cores from highways after construction are related to the performance observed in experimental highway sections.
