Application of zeolites as fillers in mix asphalt

Abstract

The aim of this paper is estimation of the effect of zeolites addition on properties of asphalt and examination of possible application of zeolites in mix asphalt as a filler. The addition of zeolites to the mix asphalt is one of the ways used for reduction of technological temperatures by asphalt foaming. At the same time the zeolite material replaces the filler. The paper presents the results of studies on the synthetic zeolite NaP1, natural zeolite- clinoptilolite and mineral filled.
