The aim of this research is mainly to analyze the influence of adding polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic bottle waste to asphalt concrete-binder course mix. The polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic bottle waste was added to asphalt concrete-binder course mix using the wet processing method, in which the PET particles were directly mixed with the asphalt hot mix along with its aggregates. This whole research was conducted using asphalt with 60/70 penetration specification and 5.8% of asphalt content. While PET particles were added using various content ratios of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8%. Based on the Marshall test, it is proven that the number of void in mix (VIM), viscosity modifying admixtures (VMA), and Marshall Quotient went up as the number of density, voids filled with asphalt (VFA), and Marshall flow went down. |
