Abstract
Among nanomaterials, nano-TiO2 has shown the potential to improve the rheological properties of asphalt binders, and mechanical and durability properties when used in the mixture phase. These improvements include fatigue resistance, high-temperature performance, aging resistance, and moisture susceptibility. In addition, nano-TiO2 is known to have remarkable photocatalytic properties, which can lead to pollutant degradation and better air quality. Besides, nano-TiO2 has the potential to reduce the pavement surface temperature by reflecting the UV rays of the sun and increasing heat dissipation, which may lessen the urban heat island adverse effects on the environment. These interesting features of nano-TiO2 can be attributed to its remarkable physical and chemical structure and properties. To cast light on these different outcomes of using nano-TiO2 in asphalt pavements, this article provides a critical review of the rheological, mechanical, durability, and environmental impacts of incorporating nano-TiO2 into asphalt pavements, and how the chemical properties of nano-TiO2 are related to these effects. This article also reviews the photocatalytic and pavement cooling performance of nano-TiO2-modified asphalt pavement to optimize its environmental benefits. Furthermore, the article provides a critical discussion investigating the challenges and potential downsides of using nano-TiO2 in asphalt pavement, offering helpful discernments for future research and application in the pavement industry.
