Green Pavement using Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) as Partial Fine Aggregate Replacement in Modified Asphalt

Most plastics collected for recycling from the household waste stream are plastic bottles. The majority of bottles are made from Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) estimated that the ratio is 55-60%. The objective of this research is to determine optimum quality and the effect usage of recycled PET as...

Civil engineering (General) Most plastics collected for recycling from the household waste stream are plastic bottles.

The modified asphalt mixtures were produced from content concentrate of recycled PET pallet range between 5 and 25% of the weight of asphalt mixture with sieve size from 2.36 mm to 1.18 mm and 5% weight of bitumen content as follow hot mix asphalt wearing course 14 (ACW14) in Standard Specification of Road Work in Malaysia.

The Indirect Tensile Stiffness Modulus Test (ITSM) was used to evaluate stiffness modified asphalt sample at 25 °C.
