Abstract

It was shown that high-density polyethylene (HDPE) contaminated with engine oil is effective as a reinforcing and modifying element in the asphalt cement concrete composition. It was found that shredded packaging materials with engine oil contamination in the amount of up to 17.5 % can be successfully used as raw materials in the production of asphalt-cement concrete mixtures. It was proven that the use of HDPE with bitumen increasesthe heat resistance of the mixture due to the formation of new physical and chemical bonds between them. It was demonstrated that the inclusion of of oil-contaminated container waste in the asphalt cement concrete has no adverse effect on living biological objects.
