Rheological test using Dynamic Shear Rheometer also showed that addition of NP and NC to the asphalt binder may enhances the properties of modified asphalt binder. It was found that an increase in the percentage of NP and NC causes an increase in rutting factor (G*/sin 5) and decrease in fatigue factor (G*sin 5) indicating higher resistance against rutting and fatigue cracking. Therefore, it can be concluded that both polymers considerably improve elastic properties and rutting resistance of asphalt binder and thus could be used to enhance the asphalt mixture performance. The asphalt mixture performance of the NP and NC modifiers were investigated by resilient modulus, wheel tracking, dynamic modulus and moisture susceptibility test. The results show that the addition of NP and NC polymer into the mixture has a significant positive effect on the properties of AC14 and SMA14 which could improve the mixture's resistance against permanent deformation (rutting), stripping resistance and increase the stiffness of the mix. It was observed that the addition of NP and NC polymer gave better overall performance in the asphalt mixture. Two statistical models were developed in this study to evaluate a statistical relationship between resilient modulus with viscosity and G*/sind of asphalt binder. The tests revealed that the models have been successfully developed and validated thus could be effectively used to predict the asphalt mixture performance according to asphalt binder properties. Therefore, it can be concluded that NP and NC polymer is feasible to be used as asphalt modifier and 6 percent NC is the most effective proportion that could gave better asphalt binders and asphalt mixture performance compared to others.
