Durability of Bitumen-Stabilized Materials
Authors: Jenkins Kim J. 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
Bitumen-stabilized material (BSM) technology has been developed to stabilize base layers with bitumen to become flexible and durable (moisture resistant) with less than half of the application rate of bitumen that would be used in asphalt. This technology enables bitumen to be dispersed in meniscal droplets among the aggregates of the base layer. Dispersion takes place along with moisture and active filler but without heating the components. Given the need for flexible base layers with moderate stiffness that are not prone to cracking, conventional bases come up short. Cemented bases have high and sometimes variable stiffness, are brittle, and crack; unbound bases have low stiffness, are porous, and rut; whereas asphalt bases are temperature sensitive but, more importantly, are economically and environmentally expensive. The ideal base would be a load-spreading interlayer with intermediate stiffness between that of the surfacing and subbase, i.e., a balanced pavement. The “noncontinuously bound” nature of a BSM results in only partially coated aggregates above the size of 0.300 mm, whereas the majority of the bitumen produces a mastic of finer aggregates (active filler and bitumen) that produce flexible spot welds within the matrix. The hydrophobicity of the bitumen provides robust durability and moisture resistance. In addition, the composition of a BSM base, i.e., approximately 50 % stiffness of asphalt, provides that necessary balance. This state-of-the-art paper identifies the key durability properties that need to be addressed, with the objective of a pavement structure that achieves an adequate lifespan. A number of factors need to be considered and understood, i.e., the role of all components (aggregate, bitumen, active filler, and moisture) and their volumetrics, compaction, permeability, and performance test methods and limits all play a role in satisfying BSM durability.

Abstract
The environmental challenges facing society today are forcing the road construction industry to tackle the twin challenges of decreasing consumption of nonrenewable raw materials and limiting its carbon impacts. Yet, roadworks can deliver some genuine environmental benefits, along with low greenhouse gas emissions, by becoming a carbon sink. Recycling very high proportions of road construction materials and gradually incorporating bio-based products into their composition is now a proven solution. To this end, Eiffage Route has developed a range of plant-based binders, suitable for recycling, which incorporate a high proportion of materials recovered from existing pavement. This article reviews the so-called Biophalt innovation that won the 2019 award presented at the Road and Street Innovation Committee established by the Transport Infrastructure Department of the French Ministry of the Ecological Transition. It consists of a warm mix asphalt (WMA), including a high amount (&gt;30 %) of recycled asphalt and a plant-based patented binder, suitable for any type of traffic. Both environmental and mechanical performances of Biophalt, assessed through SEVE TP modeling and several mix design studies carried out in the framework of different jobsites, are presented. They underline the “carbon sink” properties of the bio-based WMA as well as its compliance with standards defined by the norms of the French asphalt mix design method. It thus demonstrates Biophalt’s ability to combine both sustainability and excellent mechanical characteristics.

Abstract
Comfortability of a fabric is achieved by improving the moisture management behavior of the knitwear. In our study, the moisture management behavior of polyester and cotton fibers blended in 100:0, 50:50, and 0:100 ratios in four different structures such as single jersey, cross tuck, cross miss, and twill at two different loop lengths, 0.29 and 0.32 cm, were studied. Objective fabric tests were conducted to analyze the thermal properties of various knitwear. The results clearly proved that the knit fabric made of 100 % polyester has better moisture management behavior and a considerable level of comfort. Therefore, polyester can be applied to active sportswear fabrics. The structure of the fabric and the length of the loops in the fabric further affect the moisture management behavior. The cross-stitch 100 % polyester knit fabric with a loop length of 0.32 has excellent moisture management behavior, which provides excellent moisture management property compared with all other samples.

Abstract
Red mud, a kind of residue after extracting alumina from bauxite, can be a potential anti-aging agent because of its special structure for absorbing light components and retarding oxygen penetration of asphalt. Therefore, the study aims at investigating the feasibility of red mud as modifier of asphalt and most importantly, to improve aging resistance. Modified asphalt was prepared from different contents of red mud (0 %, 1 %, 3 %, and 5 % by weight of asphalt). Conventional asphalt tests and accelerated thermal and ultraviolet aging of asphalt were conducted. The aging of asphalt mixture preparation and asphalt pavement in service is analogous to oven aging and a self-designed ultraviolet aging in the laboratory. The change of chemical components of asphalt after aging was analyzed. The results show that the physical adsorption of red mud and asphalt affects the performance of asphalt. Compared with matrix asphalt, red mud-modified asphalt shows excellent high-temperature deformation resistance and elasticity properties. Moreover, the aging index of red mud-modified asphalts is smaller, and red mud inhibits the formation of carbonyl and sulfoxide during asphalt aging. The slight changes of asphalt performance after aging indicates that it has good aging resistance.
Morphologic and textural effects of gelation and mechanochemical activation on dry or wetted simple and complex nanooxides

Published: December 2022

The characteristics and properties of fumed oxides depend strongly on various external actions that is of importance from a practical point of view. Therefore, gelation or high-pressure cryogelation (HPC) of aqueous media pure or with 0.1 M NaCl, and mechanochemical activation (MCA) of dry or wetted powders of individual (silica, alumina, their mechanical blends) and complex (silica/titania, alumina/silica/titania, AST1, AST1/A–300) nanooxides were studied to analyze the influence of the nanooxide composition, particulate morphology, and preparation conditions on changes in the morphological and textural characteristics of treated samples. The temperature-pressure behavior of different phases (silica, alumina, and titania) under HPC can result in destroy of complex core-shell nanoparticles (100–200 nm in size) in contrast to small nonporous nanoparticles, NPNP (5–20 nm). The textural characteristics of nanooxides are sensitive to any external actions due to compaction of such supra-NPNP structures as aggregates of nanoparticles, agglomerates of aggregates, and visible structures in powders. The compaction of supra-NPNP enhances the pore volume but much weakly affects the specific surface area (with one exception of AST1) because small NPNP are relatively stable during any external actions (HPC, MCA). The compacted materials are characterized by enhanced mesoporosity shifted to macroporosity with decreasing specific surface area and increasing sizes of nanoparticles or to mesopores with increasing MCA time or amounts of water in wetted powders. At low hydration of the A–300 powder (h = 0.5 g/g), the value of SBET slightly increases if MCA is provided by stirring or ball-milling. Diminution of the freezing temperature from 208 to 77.4 K during HPC results in enhanced compaction of aggregates and agglomerates but this does not practically affect the primary nanoparticles. The degree of decomposition of core-shell nanoparticles of AST1 does not practically increase with decreasing freezing temperature from 208 to 77.4 K. Decomposition of core-shell AST1 particles is inhibited under HPC by added A–300 (1 : 1) working as a damper.

The main idea of this work is to study the possibility of obtaining microcrystalline cellulose from multi-ton and low-value agricultural waste and investigation its structural properties. Air-dry soybean straw, an agricultural waste, was used for the research. Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) was obtained from it by the method of organo-solvent cooking. Using the methods of XRD, XRF, FTIR-ATR, AFM, TGA and DSC, the structure and morphology of MCC were studied. It is found that increasing the hydromodule reduces the content of lignin and inorganic components. At the same time, both the yields of the MCC and its qualitative characteristics are declining. First of all, the crystallinity index of the MCC decreases with the increasing amount of the liquor ration. The band corresponded to symmetric CH2 bendings at 1435–1429 cm–1, that is known as the crystallinity band, decreased with increasing amount of the liquor ration. The AFM method shows that when forming the surfaces of MCC 10 particles, not only groups of particles are formed, the heights of the elements of which range from 23.8–28.1 to 16.9–26.8 nm, but also elongated units on the surface of which there are individual particles. The surface roughness is 1.6 nm. At the same time, the surface of the MCC 15 has a surface roughness Ra = 3.1 nm. The particles are distributed throughout the scan, with no clusters of particles and their agglomerates, and their heights are 14.4; 18.7; 20.6; 17.4 and 23.9; 18.1; 24.7 nm. 3D image of the particles showed that the particles are pyramids of different configurations similar to the particles in the MCC 10. It should be noted that the range of depressions and heights characteristic of MCC 15 is much smaller (from –13 to +20.7 nm) than in the MCC 10 (from –17.5 to 45.5 nm).

After removal of metastatic malignant tumors of the hypopharynx and larynx, hypopharyngeal defects are formed. To restore the hypopharynx, a mucosa and a muscular component are needed.The objective of this study is to develop a hypopharyngeal reconstruction technique using prelaminated pectoralis major flap with mucosal epithelium analogue from autologous epithelial layers.Materials and methods. Nine patients underwent reconstruction of the hypopharynx using bioengineered prelaminated pectoralis major flaps. The mucosa was restored by tissue-engineered autologous epithelial cell layers that were obtained by culturing in vitro cells isolated from skin biopsies that were previously obtained from patients.Results. Oral nutrition was restored in all cases. Pharyngeal stenosis was detected in one (11%) patient. A stratified squamous epithelium on the pectoral fascia was revealed in 67% of cases at week 2 after prelamination, in 89% of cases at week 4 after reconstruction and in 100% of cases at month 3, 6, 12 and 24 after reconstruction.Conclusion. Reconstruction using prelaminated bioengineered flaps allows recreating the anatomical integrity and function of the hypopharynx.

Objective: to study the effectiveness of correcting the morphofunctional characteristics of the liver in an experimental model of chronic liver disease (CLD), using implanted cell-engineered constructs (CECs).Materials and methods. Experiments were carried out on male Wistar rats (n = 80) aged 6–8 months with an initial weight of 230–250 g. CLD was modeled by inoculating the rats with 60% CCl4 oil solution for 42 days based on a modified scheme. Microgel based on recombinant spidroin rS1/9 was used as a matrix for CECs fabrication. Allogeneic liver cells (LCs) and multipotent bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) from a healthy donor were used as the cellular component of the CECs. The effectiveness of the corrective effect of the implanted CECs was assessed in an experimental CLD model (n = 60) in two groups of rats: Group 1 (control, n = 20, 1 mL of saline solution was injected into the damaged liver parenchyma) and Group 2 (experimental, n = 40, CECs containing allogenic LCs and BM-MSCs in a 5 : 1 ratio in a volume of 1 mL were implanted into the damaged liver parenchyma). For long-term monitoring of the CEC state, the CECs were labeled by additional inclusion in Cytodex-3. The effectiveness of the regulatory effect of CECs on regenerative processes in the liver was evaluated using biochemical, morphological and morphometric techniques, as well as by flow cytometry at 90 days after implantation.Results. In the control group, the mortality rate in CLD was 25%. There was no death in the experimental group with CLD after CEC implantation. The CECs were found to have a corrective effect on the biochemical and morphological parameters of the liver in CLD during 90 days of follow-up, with concomitant preservation of structural cellular homeostasis in the implanted CECs. Conclusion. Implantation of CECs in the liver facilitates effective correction of CLD by activating regenerative processes in the damaged liver, which is due to long-term preservation of structural cellular homeostasis in the CECs.

In contrast to decellularization of soft tissues for use as tissue-specific matrices in the creation of tissue-engineered constructs, decellularization of cartilage tissue requires several processing techniques, which can negatively affect the biocompatibility and functional properties of the native extracellular matrix (ECM).Objective: to study the biocompatible and functional properties of microdispersed tissue-specific 3D matrix from a porcine cartilage that is decellularized by sequential use of chemical, physical and enzymatic techniques.Materials and methods. For decellularization, microdispersed cartilage particles (MCPs), obtained by cryomilling, were incubated in detergent solutions (sodium dodecyl sulfate and Triton X-100), then treated with supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) with 10% ethanol and DNase I. The Ames test (Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay) was used to determine the genotoxicity of decellularized microdispersed cartilage particles (dMCPs). Local and general toxic effects, as well as resorption of dMCPs were studied in vivo on sexually mature outbred rats. Decellularized MCP specimens (10 mg) were implanted into the thigh muscle tissue. Viability of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (hAdMSCs), when cultured on dMCPs, was analyzed by in vivo microscopy, stained with fluorescent Calcein AM dye. Cell metabolic activity was assessed using PrestoBlue™ Cell Viability Reagent.Results. It has been proven that porcine dMCPs implanted in rat muscle after treatment with scCO2 do not exhibit local and general toxic effects, and do not show genotoxicity and negative effects on the reproductive system of animals. After 6 months of in vivo experiment, most (87%) of the implanted decellularized cartilage was resorbed. It was shown that the resulting matrices are able to support adhesion and proliferation of hAdMSCs. Conclusion. Porcine dMCP specimens are suitable for biocompatible medical products in terms of local and general toxic effects, genotoxicity and reproductive toxicity, and can be used as a matrix for creating cell- and tissue-engineered cartilage constructs.

Most Muslims find it hard to memorize the Qur’an due to certain factors. This research explored the effect of spiritual intelligence and religious faith on self-regulation. Having quantitative design, three instruments were used in this analysis; self-regulation scale (S-SR) (α=0.621), religious faith scale (S-RF) (α=0.986), and spiritual intelligence scale (S-SI) (α=0.890). Four hundred (400) students in the tahfiz Al-Qur’an program from some Islamic boarding schools in Surabaya were selected through purposive sampling. The results from multiple regression showed that spiritual intelligence and religious faith significantly predicted self-regulation. In other words, both spiritual intelligence and religious faith had a positive effect on self-regulation. Besides, spiritual intelligence also positively affected self-regulation. The more positive students assessed their spiritual intelligence, the higher their self-regulation. That self-regulation then made students get more engaged with their activity of memorizing the Quran.
