Effects Of Aging

The effects of aging on the fatigue property of polymer modified asphalt mixtures are investigated in this paper. Two kinds of aging procedures are adopted for the aging of specimens prepared with polymer modified asphalt mixtures. One is the short-time aging which means that the hot asphalt mixtures was heated in the oven for 4 hours at 135°C before compacted; The other called natural aging, with the original specimen exposed in the sunlight and subjected to the rain and temperature change for 3, 6 and 9 months. Four-Point Bending Test was conducted to evaluate fatigue properties of aged asphalt mixtures at 15°C compared with the original specimens. Test results indicate that the fatigue line of aged specimens have the same tendency as the original asphalt mixtures. However, the life of aged specimen is decreased significantly when compared with the original ones, especially of the natural aged specimens.

This paper aims to investigate the relationship between the Superpave rutting parameter of asphalt (G﹡/sin δ) by conducting Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) tests with the rut depth values obtained by the wheel track device. The twenty asphalt mixtures have been prepared with twenty types of unmodified asphalts and Polymer-Modified Binders (PMBs). SBS was used to produce PMBs. The twenty base and modified asphalts have been used to prepare asphalt paving mixtures required to conduct wheel track tests. The predicted model of asphalt mixtures rut depth related to asphalt rutting parameter (G﹡/sin δ) values has been founded. Besides, the minimum limits of (G﹡/sin δ) of aged asphalt have been gotten as 3.25 kPa for Iraqi asphalt cement.

Mechanical Performances

In recent years, nanotechnology has sparked an interest in nanomodification of bituminous materials to increase the viscosity of asphalt binders and improves the rutting and fatigue resistance of asphalt mixtures. This paper presents the experimental results of laboratory tests on bituminous mixtures laid on a 1052 m-long test section built in Rome, Italy. Four asphalt mixtures for wearing and binder layer were considered: two polymer modified asphalt concretes (the former modified with the additive Superplast and the latter modified with styrene–butadiene–styrene), a “hard” graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) modified asphalt concrete and a not-modified mixture. The indirect tensile strength, water sensitivity, stiffness modulus, and fatigue resistance of the mixtures were tested and compared. A statistical analysis based on the results has shown that the mixtures with GNPs have higher mechanical performances than the others: GNP could significantly improve the tested mechanical performances; further studies will be carried out to investigate its effect on rutting and skid resistance.

To solve the high-temperature rutting problem of asphalt pavement, the old rubber of the tire rubber and plastic of general polyethylene waste composite modified asphalt mixture is proposed. The plastic and rubber compound particle was made by the rubber through efficient desulfurization additives, pre-swelling, twin-screw extrusion equipment. The particles mixed with the asphalt mixtures specimen preparation and the dynamic stability experiments, composite beam fatigue experiments, flexural tensile strength and modulus experiments and anti-reflective pavement cracks and other mechanical experiments are performed. The comparative data obtained by the rubber and plastic composited modified asphalt mixtures and SBS asphalt mixtures prove that the rubber and plastic composited modified asphalt mixtures have excellent rutting resistance and fatigue resistance.

Asphalt pavement is typically susceptible to moisture damage. However, it could be improved with the incorporation of additives or modifiers through binder modifications. The objective of the study is to assess the effect of adhesion promoters, namely PBL and M5000, onto the Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA). The performance of asphalt mixture has been assessed in terms of the service characteristics, the bonding properties, and mechanical performances. The service characteristics were assessed through the Workability Index (WI) and Compaction Energy Index (CEI) to evaluate the ease of asphalt mixture during the mixing and compaction stage. The bonding properties of the modified asphalt mixtures were determined using the boiling water test and static water immersion test to signify the degree of coating after undergoing specific conditioning period and temperature. The mechanical performances of the modified asphalt mixture were evaluated via Marshall stability, semi-circular bending, and modified Lottman tests. All specimens were prepared by incorporating adhesion promoters at the dosage rates of 0.5% and 1.0% by weight of asphalt binder. From the investigation, the bonding properties significantly improved for the modified asphalt mixture compared to the control mixture. The WI of the modified asphalt mixture increased while the CEI decreased in comparison to the control specimen. This implies the workability of modified asphalt mixture is better and requires less energy to be compacted. Modified asphalt mixture generally had better mechanical performance. Therefore, it can be deduced that the asphalt mixture with adhesion promoters have better overall performance than the control mixture.
