Abstrakt:

Asphalt binder is a crucial component of asphalt pavements that undergoes ageing over time, which can result in the reduced performance and deterioration of pavements. Consequently, artificial ageing methods play a significant role in providing valuable insights into the ageing behaviour and long-term performance of asphalt binders. However, a consensus on the most effective method for simulating ageing behaviour remains elusive, leading to disparities in the outcomes across different research studies. To address this issue, the study utilises two thermo-oxidative ageing approaches, one focusing on the binder itself and another on the loose asphalt mixture. The study investigates the effect of these ageing methods on the behaviour of asphalt binder using physical, rheological, and chemical characterisation. For the binder ageing method, a rolling thin film oven (RTFO) and a pressure ageing vessel (PAV) were utilised, whereas the loose asphalt mixture ageing was performed in an oven at 95 °C for various durations. The results indicated that the ageing trend differed between the two oxidative ageing approaches as the ageing duration increased. However, by employing an ageing sensitivity index, comparable rheological properties were observed between the binders aged using the PAV for 20 h and the loose asphalt mixture for 5 days. The Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy analysis revealed that the ageing methods influenced the functional groups associated with ageing in distinct ways, even though they exhibited similar rheological behaviour. Overall, this study provides a comprehensive understanding of different thermo-oxidative ageing approaches, their correlation, and their relevance to the studied field-aged binders.
