Modification of asphalt using polymers, oils and other additives has been an option to improve asphalt pavement performance and extend its lifespan. The present work aims to evaluate the influence of the addition of engine oil on the consistency and thermal properties of HDPE-modified asphalt. For this st udy, compositions containing asphalt, engine oil and high-density pol yethylene (HDPE) were prepared, varying the concentration of engine oil by 2.5 wt%, 5 wt%, 7.5 wt% and 10 wt% and keeping the concentration of HDPE at 5 wt%. The samples were characterized by conventional tests of penetration, softening point and viscosity, aging in a Rotational Thin Film Oven (RTFO), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA). According to the results, the addition of HD PE to virgin asphalt causes an increase in the consistency of the virg in asphalt, which then decreases linearly as the engine oil is added into the matrix. Conventional tests showed improvements in the applicability of the asphalt in terms of resistance to cracks and permanent deformation . TGA showed a slight increase in stability for the modified asphalt samples at elevated temperatures . The RTFO showed mass gain and loss for samples with and without engine oil, respectively.
