Bitumen used for the construction of road pavements should exhibit adequate resistance to loads at high operating temperatures. An effective method of improving the properties of bitumen is their modification. To evaluate the high-temperature properties of bitumen, standard consistency tests and advanced rheological tests under dynamic load are conducted. The main purpose of the article is to assess the high temperature properties of modified binders produced by two major Polish producers. The assessment was based on the tests results of modified binders in the range of the standard softening point temperature test and tests in the dynamic shear rheometer (DSR) according to the requirements of Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) and Multiple Stress Creep Recovery Test (MSCR). It has been shown that due to the highest operating temperatures of road pavements in Poland, produced bituminous binders meet the requirements of resistance to permanent deformation with a great reserve.

This study used the Multiple Stress Creep Recovery Test (MSCR) and the Flow number test to analyze the characteristics of asphalt rubber and its use in hot mix asphalt (HMA) regarding to their ability to withstand permanent deformation. MSCR tests were done in three commercial asphalt rubber and in the traditional asphalt binder 50/70. Flow number tests were performed in twenty four specimens of asphalt rubber mixtures and eight specimens of conventional asphalt mixtures. The results of these tests showed that all the asphalt rubber samples had lower compliance values (Jnr) in the MSCR test, which denotes that these modified binders improved the rutting resistance of HMA. This behavior was confirmed with flow number results, since the HMA produced with asphalt rubber had always higher flow number values, when compared to the conventional asphalt mixtures. The analysis of the data showed excellent correlation between Jnr values and FN values.

Multiple stress creep recovery test (MSCR) as an effective evalution mothed for polymer modified asphalt was studied newly,and was formed a new ASTM standard.In this article, SBS modified asphalt,rubber asphalt,and rubber/SBS composite modified asphalt were taken a multiple stress creep recovery test (MSCR) through the dynamic shear rheometer (DSR), value of Jnr and Jnr-diff from MSCR test of different modified asphalt were studied according to ASTM D7405-08.The results showed the rubber / SBS modified asphalt had a lower Jnr compared with the other two,which indicating that it had an obvious advantage on high temperature deformation resistancing.Furthermore,low Jnr-diff value was related with lower dependence on the shear stress. made it applicable to conditions such as high temperature and overload or long steep road construction; MSCR test also provides a reasonable basis for choosing modified asphalt in such geological and climate conditions.
