The Effect of Viscosity of Asphalt on the Properties of Bituminous Paving Mixtures. Part II. Early Hardening of Asphalt in Hot Bituminous Paving Mixtures
The investigation was a study of the hardening of the asphaltic binder that occurs in the early life of hot bituminous concrete pavements and in compacted samples cut from the pavements. The rate of hardening was established in hot bituminous wearing surfaces during the first 30 to 60 days of the pavement life. Asphalt of 85-100 penetration grade from four different supply sources and one 170 penetration grade asphalt was used. The hardening of the asphalt in compacted pavement samples was determined when stored at 9F, room temperature, and 140F. The effect of sealing the samples from the air and storing under water was investigated. The effect on the hardening of the rate of cooling of the hot samples was studied. The hardening in the road and in compacted samples varied with the different asphalts used. Hardening occurring in the first 10 days of service was often greater than that occurring in the mixing operation. The hardening of the compacted pavement samples during laboratory storage was very much dependent on temperature. For some of asphalts a sample stored for 20 days at room temperature lost 13% of its penetration. Storing samples under water or at 9F maintained samples close to their original hardness. Sealing samples from the air with thin asphalt layers was not effective in retarding hardening. Rate of cooling had measurable effects on the hardening that occurred. Hardening that had occurred in a few old roads was determined. The asphalt in surface courses of two pavements 15 to 17 years of age showed recovered penetrations of 15 to 18. For other pavements 5 years of age the penetrations of the asphalt varied from 18 to 24. (Author)
