AB  - The hazards of plastic waste (PW) from polymers (e.g., polyethylene terephthalate 
      (PET), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), 
      polyvinyl chloride (PVC), nylon, polystyrene (PS), etc.), the mechanism of its 
      spread in general, and its ubiquity in our daily lives as a continuously and/or 
      frequently expelled product are a crisis of the twenty-first century, as reported 
      by the United Nations in 2019, especially after the outbreak of the COVID-19 
      pandemic. This research included the process of modifying the rheological 
      properties of asphalt to obtain asphalt suitable for use in a high-humidity 
      atmosphere. The Iraqi climate is characterized by heat that reaches the point of 
      harshness in the summer and coldness that falls below zero on some winter days. 
      From this point of view, our recent study focuses mainly on making rheological 
      and chemical modifications to asphalt using spent polymeric materials and used 
      lubricating oils (ULO), thus achieving two important goals, namely obtaining 
      asphalt with rheological properties resistant to the Iraqi atmosphere as well as 
      eliminating both solid and liquid environmental pollutants. The microstructure 
      and morphology of the designed patches were characterized using scanning electron 
      microscopy (SEM) to indicate phase composition.
