Abstract
Cement asphalt emulsion mixture (CAEM) is an environmentally sustainable substitute for hot mix asphalt and can trigger a substantial economic benefit. This paper systematically reviews the interactions between the organic–inorganic composites and their influence on the performance of CAEM. First, the interactions between asphalt emulsion (AE) and cement are introduced. Next, the demulsification of AE and hydration of cement in the CAEM system are analyzed. Finally, the fresh properties of CA paste, the static and dynamic mechanical properties of CA mortar and its applications in ballastless slab tracks, and the road performance of CAEM and its applications in pavement construction are discussed. This review allows for a better understanding of the interaction of the organic–inorganic composite and thus has a better strategy to regulate the performance of CAEM and promote its practical application.
