Review on the Mechanism and Performance Enhancement of Biomass-Based Rejuvenators in Reclaimed Asphalt Recycling.
Review in Polymers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Against the backdrop of the continuous advancement of high-quality development in road infrastructure and the growing demand for waste asphalt recycling, the application limitations of traditional petroleum-based asphalt rejuvenators have become increasingly prominent due to their high resource dependence, poor compatibility with aged asphalt, and high volatility. By contrast, bio-oil, characterized by wide feedstock availability, outstanding renewability, and the inherent potential to modulate the colloidal structure and properties of aged asphalt, has gradually emerged as a critical research direction in the field of asphalt rejuvenator development. This paper provides a comprehensive review on the research, development and engineering application of bio-based rejuvenators. Firstly, the main feedstock systems, including vegetable oils, lignin derivatives and algal oils, are introduced, and the core preparation technologies (e.g., pyrolysis and alkali-catalyzed transesterification) are discussed, along with the impacts of their key process parameters on the chemical composition and storage stability of the end products. Subsequently, the performance of various bio-based rejuvenators in optimizing the rheological properties, high- and low-temperature performance, as well as fatigue and cracking resistance of aged asphalt is summarized, and the underlying rejuvenation mechanisms are generalized. Finally, the prevailing technical bottlenecks, such as inconsistent quality of as-prepared products and insufficient understanding of the long-term aging mechanism, are analyzed. Future research directions including oriented molecular modification, interfacial regulation, and full life cycle assessment (LCA) are proposed, to provide a systematic reference for their large-scale engineering application.
