contents The integration of nanotechnology into the construction industry, specifically in developing asphalt and concrete pavement materials, holds great promise for enhancing infrastructure performance and durability. Nanomaterials, characterised by their nanoscale dimensions, typically less than 100 nanometers, are increasingly employed in pavement construction.

Nanomaterials like nano-silica, nano clay, carbon nanotubes, nanocarbon black, nanofibers, nano titanium dioxide, nano alumina, and nano zinc oxide are explored in this context.
