Intermediate and High Temperature Performance of Biobinders with Various Oxidative Aging
Publication: Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering
Volume 31, Issue 12
Abstract
In order to be used as paving asphalts, bio-oil modified asphalt binders (biobinders) should provide adequate functionality over a wide temperature spectrum in resisting permanent deformation and fatigue cracking. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the rheological behavior and performance of biobinders under intermediate and high temperatures, and to assess the effects of bio-oil modification under a variety of oxidative aging conditions for aging susceptibility of the biobinders. The rheological and performance characterization was based on frequency sweep, linear amplitude sweep, elastic recovery, and multiple stress creep recovery tests. Experimental results indicated that an increase in the bio-oil percentage provided improved fatigue cracking performance but reduced rutting resistance and elastic recovery potential at all aging levels. Oxidative aging produced the reversed effects for both the control and biobinders. Use of bio-oil appeared to abate the aging susceptibility in terms of fatigue cracking resistance, but also rendered the asphalt binders less resistant to aging with regard to elastic recovery potential. The aging susceptibility of the petroleum asphalt and biobinders were similar concerning the rutting resistance. The correlations among the obtained performance parameters verified that the fatigue cracking resistance, rutting resistance, and elastic recovery property of the biobinders at all aging levels were generally in line with those of the petroleum asphalt, and that the biobinders could be potentially utilized as sustainable paving asphalts.
