Analyses of Viscosity Variation in Solidifying Procedure of Epoxy Asphalt
Publication: ICTE 2011
Abstract
Epoxy Asphalt has a very good road performance. But in using, viscosity of epoxy asphalt increases with time as solidify action happens and its mixture paving must be completed within a certain time to ensure good performance. In this paper, epoxy asphalt Z1&Z2 whose solidification temperatures are both 120°C together with ChemCo and TAF epoxy asphalt, penetration of every moment in solidifying is measured. An 120°C Penetration-Viscosity conversion formula is deducted, and viscosity in solidifying of these 4 epoxy asphalt are calculated out. The results indicate that viscosity curve of ChemCo epoxy asphalt ascends most calmly, the second is TAF, Z1, Z2 performed bad, and they are 90min, 80min, 65min, 75min when their viscosity achieve to 1000cPs. This method is recommended to evaluate application time of epoxy asphalt and provide a reference foundation to invent a new epoxy asphalt used in bridge paving or elsewhere.
