Fluorometric Characterization of Asphalts
In the research effort new techniques for the uniform measurement of fluorescence intensity and spectra were developed and applied to the characterization of thirteen raw asphalts. Analytical techniques and some of the factors which influence asphalt fluorescence were considered. With this small sample set, relationships were found between fluorescence intensity values and viscosity as measured in original and laboratory-aged asphalts. As viscosity increased, the fluorescence intensity descreased, a relationship thought to be due to the dependence of both these properties upon oxidation and/or molecular structuring. Fluorescence intensity also decreased significantly upon the mixing of aggregate materials with asphalt, the magnitude of the change being influenced more by the asphalt binder than the aggregate.
