Description
Justyna Stępień and colleagues tested slag aggregates in warm asphalt in 2026. Cooler asphalt production saves energy greatly. Industrial slags can replace virgin stone. Foamed bitumen enabled the warm mix. Steel slag and furnace slag were compared. Pavement base performance was the measure.
Mixture stiffness shifted with slag content. Slag mixes resisted water damage better. Relative strength loss was lower there. Furnace slag weakened stiffness and rutting resistance. Steel slag performed notably better overall. One fifth steel slag met requirements. That blend satisfied every technical test. Furnace slag needs more optimisation first.
