Asphalt oxidation is of pragmatic importance because it leads to the hardening of the asphalt, resulting in a deterioration of desirable physical properties. In asphalt pavements, oxidative age hardening contributes significantly to pavement embrittlement, eventually resulting in excessive pavement cracking.

Moisture has major effects on Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) over time. Moisture damage in asphalt can lead to deterioration of asphalt pavements in the form of cracking, potholes, and rutting that effect the ease and safety of travel along roads paved with HMA.

Dec 01, 2019 The results indicated that binder failure at temperatures above 6 °C tends to be cohesive failure, due the loss of integrity within asphalt. Unfortunately, conclusion that around 6 °C and colder, failure occurs from loss of adhesion between the binder and aggregate does not look very comprehensive without considering the time effect.

While oxidation and the potentials for changes in the properties (albeit small) occur during mixing, transport, and placement of the asphalt mix, the slow long-term oxidation of the binder continues to occur over many in-service years, which results in a

The overall findings of the study indicated that both the aggregate and mixture characteristics influenced the oxidation rates of the binder, with the two binders oxidizing by similar amounts when aged in mixtures with the same characteristics (AFT and mixture air voids).

The presence of air will prematurely oxidize and age the asphalt binder. These compounding benefits of WMA to effectively limit the rate of oxidation during asphalt mix production and placement and increasing in-place density to limit long-term access to oxygen, has government agencies looking for ways to specify WMA for all contractors to use it.

Asphalt ageing involves a number of physical and chemical processes over the life of the pavement (Tonial, 2001) and has several causes. The main cause is oxidation, which results in an increase in consistency of asphalt binder as well as loss of volatiles. (Leite, 1999). The exaggerated increase of

Asphalt Modifiers. Some asphalt cements require modification in order to meet specifications. Asphalt cement modification has been practiced for over 50 years but has received added attention in the past decade or so.

In general, as an asphalt binder ages, its viscosity increases and it becomes more stiff and brittle. Age hardening is a result of a number of factors, the principal ones being (Vallerga, Monismith and Grahthem, 1957 [1] and Finn, 1967 [2] as referenced by Roberts et al., 1996 [3]): Oxidation: The reaction of oxygen with the asphalt binder.
