In this article, thermal analysis of modified bitumen by using waste plastics and crumb rubber is studied. After conducting main tests of the thermal analysis including the thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) and the differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) on two kinds of waste plastics, the modified bitumen, and the base bitumen, we have seen that the bitumen modified with the second type of the waste plastics performs better in terms of thermal analysis. Then, by conducting the FTIR analysis on the base bitumen and modified bitumen, it can be concluded that the modification of the bitumen with the waste plastics is a physical process.
