Evaluating the Influence of Production Parameters on the Performance of Microsurfacing Mix

Abstract

Microsurfacing is a mixture of crushed mineral aggregates, polymer modified emulsion, mineral filler, water and additive, mixed and produced at ambient temperature. The performance of microsurfacing depends on mix ingredient optimization and process control during production. Hence, the objective of this study was to investigate the influence of different production parameters on the performance of microsurfacing mix during the mix design stage, production stage, and service life.
