Abstract
High temperatures, combined with heavy traffic loads, increase the risk of permanent deformation and reduce the useful lifespan of pavements, leading to a greater need for maintenance and rehabilitation activities throughout the pavement's service life. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of recycled thermoplastic additives, specifically Multi-Layer Plastic Packaging (MPP) materials, in enhancing the high-temperature performance of asphalt mixtures. MPP materials, including types such as Polyester, Polyethylene, Nylon, and Metalized Polyester, were used for binder modification in asphalt mixtures. The modification was conducted using both wet and dry methods. The physical and rheological properties of the modified binders were assessed at high temperatures to determine their impact on stiffness and resistance to permanent deformation. The results indicate that MPP materials significantly improve the high-temperature performance of asphalt mixtures by enhancing binder stiffness and resistance to permanent deformation, with the wet method proving more effective than the dry method. These findings highlight the need for developing practical guidelines for incorporating MPP materials in asphalt production in the future and underscore the importance of comprehensive studies on maintenance, rehabilitation, and overall pavement lifecycle costs.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
