NANOTECHNOLOGY FOR PAVEMENT LIFE EXTENSION CASE STUDIES IN INDIA OVER 7 YEARS (Paper 915)

Organo-Silane compounds have been in use in pavement construction in India and world over and its use is fast picking up following positive results in terms of moisture resistance and other benefits. 
The paper presents case studies sharing experience of use of new organo-silane nanotechnology in pavement construction in India, over last 7 years. The case studies cover field applications oforganosilaneswith different construction materials across different weather conditions in India.
Long term study of pavements built with this new technology reveals substantially lower pavement distress, which is indicative of efficacy of the new technology in dealing with variety of construction materials and overcoming different adverse climatic conditions.
