Ceramic fiber (CF) is a novel thermally resistant material with the potential to improve the high-temperature performance of asphalt mixture. In this study, asphalt mixtures with 0%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, and 0.5% CFs were prepared. The Marshall test, wheel tracking test, Marshall immersion test, freeze-thaw splitting test, and low-temperature bending test were conducted to evaluate the performance of the CF-modified asphalt mixture. The morphologies of these asphalt mixtures were observed using scanning electron microscopy to analyze the modification mechanism. The results showed that the CFs could improve the mechanical properties, high-temperature stability, moisture susceptibility, and low-temperature cracking resistance of asphalt mixture, with the optimum CF content being 0.4%. Further microscopic analysis showed that the CFs improved the performances of asphalt mixture through forming three-dimensional network structure, asphalt absorption, bridging cracks, and pulling-out effect.

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.

In order to study the different influences of mine filler and diatomite on asphalt mortar performance, asphalt mortars with 7% mix amount of mine filler and diatomite were tested for apparent viscosity at 135°C, penetration value at 25°C, and softening point. PI and PVN were used to evaluate the temperature sensitivity of the two kinds of asphalt mortars as well. Further, asphalt mortar bending test at low temperature were done to verify the good mechanical performance of diatomite asphalt mortar. Results indicate that, compared to mine filler, diatomite has stronger modified effect on asphalt, including apparent viscosity, penetration and softening point. And diatomite is more conducive to weakening temperature sensitivity of asphalt mortar. In addition, bending test indicates that diatomite asphalt mortar is more conducive to upgrade low temperature performance. Thus, it is significant for the preparation of diatomite modified asphalt concrete on the design of grade mixing ratio, so as to be conducive to promoting the use of diatomite modified asphalt concrete.

The reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) materials with aged SBS bitumen were limited to applied in unmodified asphalt mixture for low level pavement structure by conventional recycling technology. To overcome this, a new recycling procedure was developed to recover the aged SBS RAP as modified asphalt mixture by warm mixing technology. The Marshall method was applied to design Warm Recycled SBS modified Asphalt Mixture (WRMA) with different RAP content (0, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%). the performance properties of WRMA and hot recycled SBS modified asphalt mixture (HRMA), such as the high temperature stability, water stability and low temperature performance, were evaluated by the rutting test, low-temperature creep test, beam bending test and water immersion Marshall test, respectively. From the testing results, the properties of WRMA was more than HRMA significantly, and the warm recycling technology could effectively increase the RAP content applied in recycled pavement materials.

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.

The performance and the fundamental weaknesses of asphalt mix under environmental temperature and water effects have made researchers try to modify the asphalt mix properties by using the proper additives. For this reason, this paper aims to improve the anti-cracking performance and water stability of asphalt pavement by adding a novel composite of diatomite and lignin fiber in asphalt mixes. Four types of asphalt mixes, including control asphalt mix (CAM), diatomite modified asphalt mix (DMAM), lignin fiber modified asphalt mix (LFMAM), and diatomite-lignin fiber composite modified asphalt mix (DLFMAM) were prepared in the laboratory. Low-temperature bending test, Marshall Immersion test, and freeze-thaw splitting test were employed to evaluate the performance of the asphalt mixes. Results reveal that the use of the lignin fiber in reinforced asphalt mixes combined with diatomite led to an enhancement in the asphalt pavement performance more than the other three types of mixes. Diatomite has an important influence on the water damage resistance of asphalt mix more than lignin fiber. On the other hand, diatomite has a small effect on the anti-cracking performance; meanwhile, lignin fiber showed a significant improvement in the cracking resistance of asphalt mixes. DLFMAM has the best traveling performances among all asphalt mixes. Thus, this work provides a good reference for the design of composite asphalt mixes.

Abstract Different binder content to RAP Regeneration SBS modified asphalt mixture for road performance to SBS modified asphalt (I-D type) as an index, determine the optimum dose of new heat regenerating agent and different RAP regeneration, and prepared different recycled asphalt, which have differences in RAP content. The performance of recycled asphalt mixture with different RAP content was evaluated by freeze-thaw splitting test. Rut test and Low temperature trabecular bending test. The correlation between RAP content and pavement performance was analyzed by grey system correlation analysis method. According to the experimental verification results, it can be known that increasing the content of RAP material can improve the high-temperature performance of reclaimed asphalt, but will result in a qualitative decrease in low-temperature performance and water temperature, but the above-mentioned performance can reach the required level, Shows that new heat regenerators play a role in the road performance of RAP materials, and for the RAP material utilization ratio of more than 50%, as for the gray correlation analysis, it can be found that there is a close correlation between the low-temperature performance of recycled asphalt mixture and the content of RAP material. The low temperature cracking resistance of asphalt mixtures will change significantly due to the slight changes in RAP materials.
