Using Ethylene Bis(Stearamide) (EBS) decreases mixing and compaction temperature of bitumen and consequently decreases energy consumption of asphalt mixture production. In this study, polyphosphoric acid (PPA) is added to EBS-modified bitumen to mitigate low-temperature deteriora-tion of EBS. Also, the effect of adding PPA and EBS on high-temperature behavior of bitumen is investigated using supepave protocol and multiple stress creep and recovery (MSCR) test. For this purpose, PPA is added to EBS-modified bitumen (having 3% of EBS) in three different dosages of 0.5, 1, and 1.5% (based on the original bitumen weight). Then, using a dynamic shear rheometer, both superpave protocol test and the MSCR test are performed on all samples at high temperatures. Also, using a bending beam rheometer, the low-temperature behavior of all samples are evaluated. The results showed that while adding 0.5% of PPA did not change mixing and compaction tempera-ture of EBS-modified bitumen significantly, it can improve high-temperature behavior of bitumen. However, MSCR results showed that it is required to consider the high-temperature behavior of modified bitumen conservatively as the bitumen modified with 0.5% PPA and 3% EBS cannot meet standard requirement for three traffic categories.
