    FTIR offers detailed information on the chemical composition of bitumen by identifying specific functional groups and molecular structures. It helps detect changes due to aging (e.g., oxidation), assesses the effectiveness of modifiers, and monitors chemical reactions within the binder. FTIR is valuable for quality control and understanding the chemical mechanisms affecting performance.
