Synopsis

In India, 78% of the road pavements are flexible due to increased environmental awareness and more stringent regulations on industrial waste management. The main advantage of flexible pavements is resistance to heavy loads, and there is no coincidental nature appropriate for all temperatures. However, failure in this pavement is sensitivity, fatigue, lack of cutting, and so on. Some changes are made on flexible roads to overcome this change. The performance of flexible pavements must be increased to reduce the failure compared to traditional flexible pavements. Therefore, it is necessary to determine a remedy against these failures.For this purpose, the Bakelite high viscosity nature is added to a small amount of bitumen, which provides a higher softening point and less penetration value. In addition, the polymer plastic waste is also used in the bitumen, which results in a reduction in the sound produced by the vehicles, while improving the bleeding, as well as the quality and performance of the road at high temperature. This high-performance flexible pavement provides fewer flaws, reduces road maintenance costs, and is more durable compared to normal flexible pavements. In this research, the impact of Bakelite on various properties of bitumen binder is studied. It has a three-dimensional structure and is polymer amorphous in nature. It provides strength, hardness and rigidity. This paper gives an overview on the use of Bakelite in roads. Previous studies show that Bakelite can improve some properties of the modified bitumen mix. Bakelite mixed in bitumen in different percentages from 1%to5% with an increment of 0.25%.From the environment and economic point of view, use of Bakelite as an additive to bitumen mix give a good result. The mixing of Bakelite with bitumen mix also increases the life of the pavement. The use of Bakelite material in roads construction can increase the age of pavements for a longer time.
