Long-Term Aging of Recycled Binders. Summary
At 80 million tons a year – representing more than 80% of all milled asphalt pavement – asphalt paving is America’s most recycled material. Asphalt can be recycled in place, which is very cost effective; however, aging of recycled binder can have a serious impact on pavement durability. Chemical rejuvenators added to recycled binder can improve its workability, but the long-term behavior of binder treated with rejuvenators is not well known. Research Objectives Florida International University researchers compared the effects of long-term aging on recycled asphalt binders and on virgin binders.
