Thermal, mechanical properties, and low-temperature performance of fibrous nanoclay-reinforced epoxy asphalt composites and their concretes
Epoxy asphalt (EA) concretes have been widely used in the pavement of orthotropic steel bridge decks. The objective of this study was to figure out the enhanced effects of natural fibrous attapulgite (ATT) as a reinforced nanofiller in ATT/EA nanocomposites through a comparison of the properties of the composites with a series of various nanoclay loadings. The rheological properties, glass transition, thermal stability, mechanical properties, and morphology of the ATT/EA composites were characterized. Furthermore, the low-temperature flexibility of the ATT/EA concretes was investigated. The test results show that the addition of ATT had no significant effect on the rotational viscosity of EA in the initial stage of the curing reaction. In addition, the ATT/EA composites showed better performance than the neat one in thermal stability with a higher glass-transformation temperature. The tensile strength and elongation at break of the ATT/EA composites at a loading of 0.5 wt % ATT were 21 and 22% higher than those of the neat EA. The addition of ATTs also enhanced the low-temperature flexibility of the EA concretes.
