Blends of asphalt and shape-stabilized phase change materials (SSPCM) were prepared by physical blending. Heat storage and thermal stability of asphalt-SSPCM blends were investigated by DSC and TG, chemical compatibility of asphalt-SSPCM blends was characterized by FT-IR, and the application feasibility of SSPCM in asphalt pavement was explored. The results show that asphalt-SSPCM blends have large phase change enthalpy, good thermal stability and chemical compatibility. Based on phase change theoretical analysis and numerical calculation, SSPCM applied in asphalt pavement can actively regulate and control pavement temperature using solar energy conversion or storage, lighten the asphalt pavement diseases related temperatures, enhance the performance of and prolong the service life of asphalt pavement, lower repair and maintenance cost, and enhance driving safety. At the same time, it can also saving energy sources and protect environment. Therefore, SSPCM have broad application foregrounds in asphalt pavement.

Phase Change Material (later to be referred as PCM) has been successfully utilized in some areas. PCM has emerged as one of the materials for pavement temperature reducing due to its latent heat. Some research has been done regarding this topic. The objective of this paper is to review the development of PCM in asphalt pavement. The review has shown that organic PCM appears as the favourite PCM in asphalt concrete studies. Choice of porous material depends on method of incorporation. Reduction of temperature in PCM-asphalt mixture compared to conventional one is undoubtable. However, the mechanical performance of PCM-asphalt mixture need to be explored.

The objective of this study is to investigate the preliminary feasibility on the utilization of shaped-stabled phase change materials (SSPCM) in asphalt concrete to control pavement high-temperature. A comparative study has been conducted on the properties of asphalt with and without SSPCM. The properties investigated include basic and rheological performance along with temperature-controlling effect of asphalt mortars. The results show that there exist stiffening and “temperature lag” effect for asphalt mortar containing SSPCM, which indicates that it may be promising to use SSPCM to reduce high-temperature of asphalt pavement.

Rutting is a common and serious phenomenon in asphalt pavement especially in high temperature areas. Phase change material (PCM) can adjust temperature through storing and releasing thermal energy during phase change process and has been used in thermal energy storage areas and building materials. However, the use of PCM to regulate the temperature of asphalt pavement has not been widely studied. In this paper, the feasibility of temperature self-control asphalt pavement using PCM was studied for preventing rutting. The temperature-control mechanism of asphalt pavement with PCM has been presented. The selection criteria of PCM used in asphalt pavement have been made. Meanwhile, a paraffin/expanded graphite shape-stabled phase change material with a phase change temperature range of 40°C~50°C has been used in this study. The temperature rising test of asphalt concrete showed that sample with PCM exhibited a lower temperature than the control sample, which indicates that it is feasible to use PCM in asphalt pavement for lowering temperature and preventing rutting.
