Less than 40 micron waste plastic, more than 40 micron waste plastic, dry process, Marshall Stability, Modified Bituminous mix.

The mechanical properties of bituminous mix modified with two different plastic wastes of thickness more than 40 micron and less than 40 micron via dry process was examined in this study. Properties like Marshall Stability, Flow, Indirect Tensile Strength (ITS) and Retained Stability values were calculated to evaluate the suitability of waste plastics in Road construction. The results obtained showed that the waste plastic modified bituminous mixes were performed similar and better than the conventional bituminous mix. The physical properties like Abrasion value, Crushing Strength value, and Impact value and water absorption of modified aggregates via dry process were also improved. This holds out new possibilities for utilization of locally available aggregates of variable quality, for manufacturing mixture with better performance. The utilization of locally available aggregates would make the mixture economical. Waste plastics are generally disposed by landfilling or left alone in the environment which leads environmental pollution and causes many diseases to human beings and animals. Thus, the utilization of waste plastic as modifier by replacing base bitumen can be economical and environmental friendly.
