  1. Reducing the impact of the sunlight in urban areas using asphalt mixtures with phase change materials: a review in Scopus in the last three years. Phase change materials (PCMs) have been incorporated into asphalt concrete pavements because they can regulate the temperature by absorbing and releasing heat during physical state changes. This effect reduces temperature gradients of pavements and, consequently, increases its service life. This work presents a systematic review of recent articles published in peer-reviewed journals (available in. 2022.
