To reduce the temperature of asphalt pavements in summer and improve their high-temperature stability, tourmaline anion powder (TAP) was used as a modifier to prepare modified asphalt, which actively cools the pavement. The effects of different TAP contents on the high- and low-temperature performance of modified asphalt and its pavement cooling performance were studied based on the dynamic shear rheometer, low-temperature bending beam rheometer, and indoor rutting plate temperature difference tests; subsequently, the optimum TAP content was determined. Modified asphalt was used to prepare an active cooling antirutting asphalt mixture, and its pavement cooling performance was verified via outdoor lighting tests. High- and low-temperature dynamic modulus and low-temperature semicircular splitting tests were used to evaluate the high- and low-temperature performance; further, freeze-thaw splitting and immersion Marshall tests were performed to evaluate the water stability of the active cooling antirutting asphalt mixture. The results denote that TAP is useful for improving the rutting factor of asphalt. When the TAP content is 16% of the asphalt material, the maximum cooling value of the surface in laboratory tests becomes 5.9°C. When compared with an ordinary asphalt mixture, the dynamic stability of the active cooling antirutting asphalt mixture at medium and high temperatures increased by 18%–22%. The fracture energy can be increased by 12% at low temperatures. The maximum cooling value of the surfaces in outdoor tests is 7.2°C, and the water stability slightly decreases; however, it still satisfies the specification requirements.

To improve the low-temperature performance of RET (Reactive Elastomeric Terpolymer) modified asphalt mixture (RETM), polyurethane prepolymer (PUP) was used by wet process, ground waste rubber (GWR) and fibers were used by dry process. Tests of force ductility, bending beam rheometer (BBR), differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), viscosity and multiple stress creep recovery (MSCR) were conducted to study the effects of PUP on the performance of RET modified asphalt (RETA), and beam bending test was conducted to study the effects of GWR and fibers on the performance of RETM. Then, tests of beam bending, wheel tracking, Marshall immersion, freeze-thaw splitting, and economic analysis were further conducted to compare the performance and economy of RETM modified with optimum modifiers suggested. All modifiers improve the low-temperature performance of RETM. PUP content, the content and size of GWR and the content and type of fibers significantly affect the performance of RETA or RETM respectively. After analysis, 10% PUP, 2.1% 80 mesh GWR and 0.2% polyester (PE) fiber are considered as the optimum modifiers, respectively. Comparison results show that optimum modifiers variously improve the low-temperature performance, rutting resistance and moisture susceptibility of RETM, but they slightly reduced the economy of RETM. Comprehensive evaluation shows that 2.1% 80 mesh GWR and 10% PUP are better than 0.2% PE fiber.

Prone to low temperature cracking of asphalt pavement problems in cold areas, testing BBR on 70# base asphalt and 4 kinds of different dosage of SBS modified asphalt, testing TSRST on their mixture to appraisal the low temperature performance of SBS modified asphalt mixture. Results show that compared with the temperature stress of internal cracks of base asphalt and SBS modified asphalt mixture not rise significantly. But the stress of SBS asphalt mixture growing slow and the temperature of cracking reduce obviously; it means the low temperature performance improved. This shows that SBS improves the toughness and reduced the modulus of asphalt mixture in low temperature, rather than increasing the tensile strength of mixture specimens.

In order to improve the pavement performance of reclaimed asphalt mixture, using Marshall test, rutting test, splitting test and long-term aging test, taking stability, dynamic stability, fatigue strength, stiffness modulus, and freeze-thaw splitting tension strength as the target, the influence law of old asphalt mixture content and regenerant content on pavement performance of reclaimed asphalt mixture is systematically studied. The results show that: the proportion of old asphalt mixture has no influence on high temperature performance of reclaimed asphalt mixture. With the proportion of old mixture increases, the optimum asphalt-aggregate ratio, low temperature performance, water stability, and anti-aging property of reclaimed asphalt mixture decrease. Addition of regenerant improves the low temperature performance of reclaimed asphalt mixture, and reduces the strength and high temperature stability of reclaimed asphalt mixture. Research results have great guiding significance for old asphalt mixture content selection, regenerant content selection and improving pavement performance of reclaimed asphalt mixture.

Sbs Modified Asphalt

The mixture of styreneic methyl copolymers (SMCs) normal temperature-modified asphalt and styrene-butadiene styrene block copolymer (SBS)-modified asphalt (SMCSBS) compound-modified asphalt was investigated in this study. The viscosity and temperature properties of compound modified asphalt (SMCSBS) were studied by Brookfield rotary viscosity test. Dynamic shear rheometer (DSR) and bending beam rheometer (BBR) were used to test SMCSBS compound modified asphalt with different SMC additions. Finally, the microstructure and physicochemical properties of SMCSBS were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and the modification mechanism of the SMCSBS was studied. The results show that the viscosity of the compound-modified asphalt added with SMC is improved, which is conducive to improving its workability. With the increase of SMC content, the high-temperature performance of the compound modified asphalt firstly increases and then decreases with the increase of SMC content. When the content of SMC is 12%, its high-temperature performance is the best. Compared with SBS-modified asphalt, the SMCSBS has better low-temperature performance, and the creep stiffness S and creep rate m of the SMC with different content are better than that of SBS. Finally, the microcosmic characteristics show that the SMC can give full play to its characteristics and can be uniformly dispersed in SBS modified asphalt. SMC is essentially a surfactant, which can reduce the viscosity and construction temperature by changing the surface tension and surface free energy of asphalt molecules. The curing agent of epoxy resin is slowly cross-linked and cured after contacting with air to form a certain strength, thus improving the road performance of the asphalt mixture.

According to the low temperature disease on asphalt pavement in the areas of cold and large temperature difference between day and night, conventional index test and low temperature bending creep test were used to analyze the influence of diatomite dosage on the low temperature performance of diatomite modified asphalt, and the mixture’s low temperature bending test was applied for verification. Test results show that after diatomite’s addition into asphalt, equivalent brittle point reduces significantly, ductility test cannot estimate low temperature performance very well, stiffness modulus increases and relaxation ability decreases; meanwhile, peak value of stiffness modulus and strain energy of asphalt mixture can be found, the low temperature crack resistance is enhanced; optimum dosage of diatomite is 13%. So, the low temperature performance evaluation method of diatomite modified asphalt mixture through BBR’s low temperature performance evaluation on diatomite modified asphalt remains to be discussed.
