Reducing the Environmental Impact of Cork Waste by Improving Natural Asphalt as Water Proofing Material

This research is concern with two principles, a) the environmental pollution which is the global problem b) the economic benefits as a result of reusing of waste material such as corks to produce new reusable material like Modified-Asphalt. In this research cork has melted by benzene and mixed with Hit Natural Asphalt to get good paste with weight percentages of 0%, 10%, 20%. The properties of Modified –Asphalt have been studied after and before adding coke. The results revealed that adding coke by 29% can make the Modified –Asphalt meets the international specifications (ASTM D312) and Iraqi specifications (88-1196) as a Water-proofing material.
