The level of performance of asphalt concrete has a close relationship with the properties of bitumen used. This research evaluates the rheological parameters of graphite modified bitumen. Index properties tests were conducted on bitumen and graphite to determine their suitability. Dynamic viscosity and dynamic shear rheometer were conducted on bituminous binder modified with four different proportion of graphite ranging from 2% to 10% by bitumen weight. Dynamic viscosity test was conducted on bitumen and graphite modified bitumen at temperature of 1350C and 1650C using Brookfield Viscometer. The rheological properties are centered on phase angle (δ) and complex shear modulus (G*) which were determined on bitumen and graphite modified bitumen at temperature ranging from 520C – 700C at 10 rad/s frequency using Dynamic Shear Rheometer in accordance with ASTM D7175-15. The storage modulus (G'), loss modulus (G") and rutting parameters were then evaluated from phase angle and complex shear modulus. The bitumen and graphite modified bitumen showed that graphite modified bitumen has the highest complex shear modulus and rutting parameter of 8984 (kPa) and 33387 (kPa) at 10% graphite content. The results of viscosity helped to determine the mixing and compaction temperatures. Dynamic shear rheometer test results determined the elastic and viscous behaviour at various temperature. The higher the complex shear modulus and rutting parameter the stiffer the binder will resist deformation and rutting.

Rheometer Test

The influence of ultraviolet (UV) ageing on complex modulus, phase angle and low-temperature fatigue factor was studied by dynamic shear rheometer test. The ageing degree of the bitumen was evaluated by the rheological parameters. The results show that UV ageing causes an increase in complex modulus and fatigue factor, as well as a decrease in phase angle, indicating that the bitumen becomes more elastic after UV ageing process and is apt to crack at low temperatures. Different bitumen exhibits diverse changes in the rheological parameters after UV ageing, which is much dependent on the sources of bitumen.

In order to study the performance of Sasobit warm mix asphalt and the influence of aging, complex shear modulus G* and phase angle δ of Sasobit warm mix asphalt are tested by Dynamic Shear Rheometer （DSR） at different aging phase, to analyze the effects of Sasobit to the performance and the aging of 70# and SBS asphalt. The results show that with the increasing of the dosage of Sasobit, the value of G*/sinδ can be increased at different aging phase, the change in the phase angle has the same trend; the degree of Long-term aging of warm-matrix asphalt is larger than modified asphalt's. This may be related to the interaction of Sasobit and modifier.

Abstract Bitumen is a critical component in asphaltic pavements and is often the cause of many road failures. The commercial modifiers that are being used to enhance the properties of bitumen are quite expensive; therefore, this article is dedicated to explore the potential of local crumb rubber as bitumen modifier. Two grades of bitumen pen grade (60/70 and 80/100) were modified with local crumb rubber. Rheological properties of modified and unmodified bitumen were evaluated using Dynamic Shear Rheometer. The results indicated an increase in the rutting resistance of bitumen. This indicates that Local crumb rubber can be used to enhance the properties of bitumen.

The failures of the flexible pavements are not only caused by harsh climatic conditions prevailing in most of the tropical countries but also due to increase in traffic. The ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) modification of the bitumen can strengthen the properties of binders and also improve the quality of bitumen used for pavements construction. This paper reports the changes in physical and rheological properties of unaged 80-100 grade bitumen modified with different percentages of EVA and compared with the properties of PG 76 binder. The penetration, softening point and viscosity properties were studied. The rheological properties were measured using dynamic shear rheometer and the test was performed at temperatures ranging from 46 to 76 ⁰C at intervals of 6 ⁰C. It was noted that, after modification, the properties of binders had improved. The results show that 5% EVA content by weight in modified binder is adequate in terms of physical and rheological properties studied. In addition, the properties of 5% EVA modified 80-100 grade bitumen are similar to PG 76 binder.
