This　presented　paper　aimed　to　investigate　the　physical　properties　and　microwave-healing　performance　of　carbon　fiber　modified　asphalt　mixture.　Two　types　of　carbon　fibers,　HexTow　(R)　IM8　and　AS4　(from　HEXCEL　Company),　were　added　to　asphalt　mixture.　About　2%　and　4%　HexTow　(R)　IM8　fiber　(by　mixture　weight)　were　chopped　and　dry-mixed　for　the　modified　asphalt　mixture.　About　1.5%　and　3%　of　HexTow　(R)　AS4　fiber　(by　binder　weight)　were　pre-cut　and　wet-mixed　with　asphalt　binder　then　the　modified　asphalt　mixture　was　produced.　The　thermal　conductivity　of　carbon　fiber　modified　asphalt　mixture　samples　increased　while　the　electrical　resistivity　decreased　with　added　fiber　content.　The　measured　original　fracture　strengths　from　elastic-supported　beam　bending　tests　indicated　that　the　original　fracture　strength　of　the　small-amount　carbon　fiber　modified　asphalt　mixture　maintained　or　decreased.　However,　when　the　content　of　carbon　fiber　exceeds　a　certain　amount,　the　original　fracture　strength　increases　due　to　fiber　reinforcement.　In　addition,　the　cyclic　fracture-microwave　healing　tests　were　conducted　to　evaluate　the　healing　performance　of　the　control　and　carbon　fibers　modified　asphalt　mixture　samples.　The　test　results　of　recovered　strength　indicated　that　the　carbon　fiber　modified　asphalt　mixture　can　achieve　superior　healing　performance　with　microwave　healing　approach.　(C)　2016　Elsevier　Ltd.　All　rights　reserved.
