AFM allows for imaging and measuring the surface topography and mechanical properties of bitumen at the nanoscale. It provides insights into the microstructure, phase distribution, and adhesion properties of bitumen components. AFM can help researchers understand how molecular-level interactions affect macroscopic properties like stiffness, elasticity, and durability.
