the article presents the results of testing asphalt samples based on activated mineral powder from silica-containing raw materials. Activated filler was obtained by joint grinding of waste wet magnetic separation (WMS) of ferruginous quartzites of the Kursk Magnetic Anomaly in a spherical planetary mill in the presence of surfactants (stearic acid, adhesive additive Amdor-10) and bitumen. First of all, it should be noted that the use of activated mineral powder in the composition of asphalt concrete mixture led to an increase in the packing density of the composite. This was reflected not only in the technological process, but also contributed to the decrease in the porosity of the mineral core. It was found that the use of surfactants in the process of grinding mineral powder made it possible to increase the strength of asphalt concrete samples. However, the change in the crack resistance and shear resistance of asphalt concrete specimens, determined from the ratio of the corresponding compressive strengths, did not occur (table). This is due to the fact that there has been a proportional change in all the strength characteristics at different temperatures. Analysis of the physical-mechanical characteristics of the properties of asphalt concrete led to the conclusion that it was possible to use activated mineral powder from waste WMS as a component of asphalt concrete mixtures.

The possibility of using polydisperse steel-smelting slag for the production of type B asphalt concrete is investigated, the possibility of its use as a mineral powder, crushing screening and crushed stone is considered. As a result of the study, it was found that a promising area for the use of slag raw materials in the technology for the preparation of asphalt mixes is: as a mineral powder - without additional processing steps; crushing screening - with the development of additional technological operations. The use of raw materials as crushed stone is impractical because of the high average density of the final asphalt mixture. Based on the test results, the characteristics of the fatigue properties of asphalt concrete from fine-grained dense mixtures of type B made on mineral powders from slag and limestone were obtained. It was established that at the initial moment, a large number of cycles to failure are characterized by compositions on slag powder, however, samples from this series tested after 45 days showed a significant rigidity increase and were destroyed earlier than similar samples on limestone. Obviously, this phenomenon is associated with an increase in the brittle properties of the material due to the formation of crystallization-condensation bonds in the structure of asphalt concrete containing slag.

Abstract Flexible or asphalt concrete pavement is the paving system most widely adopted all over the world. It has been recognized that there are many different types of the factors affecting the performance and durability of asphalt concrete pavement, including the service conditions, such as: the variation of temperature from mild to extremes and the repeated excessive axle loading as well as the inadequate quality of the raw materials. All of these when combined together are going to accelerate the occurrence of distresses in flexible pavement such as permanent deformation and fatigue cracking. As the result, there has an urgent need to enhance the ability of asphalt concrete mixture to resist distresses happened in pavement. Use of additives is one of the techniques adopted to improve pavement properties. It has been found that hydrated lime might be one of the effective additives because it is widely available and relatively cheap compared to other modifiers like polymers. This paper presents an experimental study of the hydrated-lime modified asphalt concrete mixtures. Five different percentages of the hydrated lime additive were investigated, namely (1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 percent). The hydrated lime additive was used as partial replacement of limestone filler by total weight of the aggregate. The designed Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) concretes are for the application of three pavement courses, i.e. Surface, Leveling and Base. These mixtures are designed and tested following Marshall procedure and uniaxial repeated loading to evaluate permanent deformation at different temperatures of 20°C, 40°C and 60°C. The experimental results show that the addition of hydrated lime as a partial replacement of ordinary limestone mineral filler results a significant improvement on mechanical properties and the resistant to permanent deformation of the designed asphalt concrete mixtures.

This article considers the possibility of using the dispersed waste of asphalt-concrete plants, namely the dust-entrainment, which is formed during the drying and heating of inert materials and accumulates in special dust-collecting facilities. The material under investigation corresponds to a finely dispersed filler used for the production of asphalt concrete mixtures for a number of features. It has been established that substitution of up to 50% of the mineral powder with its own dust-entrainment allows obtaining asphalt-concrete mixtures satisfying the requirements for the sharply continental climate.

This project is focused on the production of wollastonite (CaSiO3) from local resources. Wollastonite was produced by milling silica (SiO2) and limestone (CaCO3) in planetary mill for 1 and 5 hours. Samples have been sintered at different temperatures which are 900oC, 1100oC and 1300oC for 1 hour. The raw materials that have been used was collected from surround of state of Perlis and have high purity. This has been proven by X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) analysis. By observing under Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), the morphology of wollastonite shows that it has high porosity and disperses homogeneously. The X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) pattern shows that the phase of β wollastonite occurred almost at high temperature which is 1100oC. Besides, the intensity of peak also shows that the wollastonite has crystalline structure. The C-O and C-C bonding is proven by Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) analysis. The particle size for 1h milling is 26.16μm while for 5h is 16.8 μm.

the paper presents an analysis of information quality assurance of production of asphalt concrete mixtures, as well as the study of the relationship of the qualitative composition of asphalt concrete mixtures and physical and mechanical characteristics of asphalt concrete pavement. The study of the main characteristics was carried out on the example of asphalt concrete type B and grade I and crushed-mastic asphalt concrete – SchMA-20. It is established that the deviation of asphalt mixtures in composition from the required values leads to their under-compaction in the pavement. It is also established that increasing the number of inconsistencies in the asphalt concrete mixture leads to an increase of physical-mechanical characteristics that differ from the requirements of GOST 9128-2013 and GOST 31015-2002 respectively. As an information base for the assessment of the influence of granulometry of the mineral part of asphalt concrete, as well as the amount of bitumen on the main characteristics of asphalt concrete, the data of the current ACP of Belgorod region were used. Analysis of the particle size distribution was carried out using a laser analyzer of asphalt ABA7/35B. The obtained data became the basis for a further study of the influence of various parameters on the properties of asphalt mixes, as well as improving the efficiency of the asphalt mix production management system.

During the construction of experimental sections of road surfaces in v. Ust-Kurdyum of the Saratov district of the Saratov region has been established the efficiency of production and application of cold fiber-containing dispersed-reinforced asphalt concrete mixtures with dispersed bitumen. A method for accelerating the formation of the structure of cold fiber-containing asphalt concrete by heat treatment of its surface is studied. Dispersed bitumen after drying the water film has good adhesion to concrete, asphalt concrete and other materials. The asphalt concrete formed as a result of curing on the basis of dispersed bitumen is high-strength, chemical-resistant, hydrophobic and environmentally friendly, corresponding to the existing regulatory requirements for asphalt concrete. For the production of asphalt mixtures, mass-produced equipment is suitable using materials commonly used in hot asphalt concrete: crushed stone, sand, mineral powder and bitumen. Operations on drying and heating of crushed stone and sand are excluded from the technological process. Asphalt concrete mix does not stick to the surface of rubberized rollers of vibratory rollers, which allows compacting mixtures with a high content of mineral powder at any time. There are fewer cracks on the surface of the compacted layer than when using a smooth-rolling roller. The technology is recommended for extended use on roads and streets of localities, and highways with low traffic intensity.

a promising direction in solving the problem of obtaining high-quality asphalt concrete is the use of mineral fillers, including from industrial waste. The article considers the use of OEMK slag as a mineral powder in the asphalt concrete mix. The influence of hydrophobization of mineral powder by GF Preparation on moisture absorption and its structuring ability to change the maximum shear stress from the content of mineral powder before and after hydrophobization was studied. It is established that the treatment of the filler provides the necessary hydrophobicity of the mineral material, reduces the bituminous capacity, water saturation, porosity of the asphalt binder, and increases its strength and water resistance. The results of studies of the main characteristics of asphalt concrete on the example of a mixture of type G III of the brand showed that as a result of hydrophobization, the strength, water resistance, water saturation, and swelling of the composite significantly increase

The data presented in the article are part of disserta-tion research on the formula development and pro-duction principle of composite material for road con-struction with phosphogypsum and secondary poly-ethyleneterephthalate use. The article provides an assessment of the existing most successful and effec-tive technologies for creating asphalt concrete pave-ments with high technical performance characteris-tics, and the key role in formula is an asphalt binder on the binary system mineral powder/oil road bitu-men basement, their main advantages and disad-vantages are described. A new technological method for the asphalt concrete mixtures production is de-scribed - pelletization by rolling, which was proposed by the authors. The paper presents the study's results to determine the structured asphalt binder technical and operational properties obtained by the method of pelletization by rolling. A brief theoretical substantia-tion of the physicochemical nature of improving a number of developed composition technical and op-erational characteristics of a structured asphalt binder is presented. The dynamics of over time changes in the main structured asphalt binder indicators, from 2005 to 2019, are given. It has been theoretically proven that in a structured asphalt binder obtained by the method of pelletization by rolling, bitumen is in a film state, and the bitumen interlayers thickness be-tween the mineral powder particles is of the order of 100 nm, which makes it possible to classify the prod-uct as a nanomaterial and determines its special properties set. The data of independent and our own experimental studies are also presented, indicating the previously obtained theoretical justification correct-ness for increasing the strength indicators, improving the water saturation indicators, and the water re-sistance coefficient. The absence of negative changes in the main technical and operational properties dy-namics for 14 years confirms the possibility of storing the mixture in a cold form outside a sealed package in an unheated room, which makes it possible to assert the possibility of preparing material for future use and transporting it over unlimited distances.
