PURPOSES : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the newly developed Guss mastic asphalt mixtures, called EQ-mastic asphalt mixtures, which contain melted additives for decreasing cooking time. METHODS : A series of experiments were performed to investigate the effectiveness of the melted additives in EQ-mastic asphalt mixtures. Both the existing Guss mastic asphalt mixture and the EQ-mastic asphalt mixture were produced with the same amounts of asphalt binders, aggregates, and fillers, but the existing Guss mastic asphalt mixture contained 3% Trinidad lake asphalt (TLA). The EQ-mastic asphalt mixture contained 3% of additives, including TLA and polyolefin. The physical material performances of both mastic asphalt mixtures were obtained by conducting the Luer fluidity test, penetration test, dynamic stability test, and low-temperature bending test. The results of the tests for the existing Guss mastic and EQ-mastic asphalt mixtures were compared. RESULTS : The fluidity, penetration, dynamic stability, and low-temperature bending strains of both the existing Guss mastic and EQmastic asphalt mixtures all satisfied the standard values provided in the production and construction guides of the Guss mastic asphalt pavement. CONCLUSIONS : When melted additives containing polyolefin are used in the production of Guss mastic asphalt mixtures, the cooking time decreases, so that the corresponding energy consumption and asphalt fume amount can be reduced. Therefore, an EQ-mastic asphalt mixture is proposed for use as an eco-friendly pavement material.

본 연구에서는 메타카올린을 혼입한 초속경 폴리머 시멘트 콘크리트의 압축, 휨, 부착강도, 수밀성, 염화물 이온 침투 저항성,탄산화 깊이 및 동결융해 저항성에 미치는 폴리머-결합재비 및 메타카올린 첨가량의 영향에 대하여 검토하였다. 그 결과, 초속경 폴리머 시멘트 콘크리트의 휨, 압축 및 부착강도는 폴리머-결합재비의 증가에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 폴리머-결합재비에 관계없이, 초속경 폴리머 시멘트 콘크리트의 강도는 메타카올린 첨가량의 증가에 따라 증가하였으며, 메타카올린 첨가량 5%에서 최고 값을 나타내었다. 초속경 폴리머 시멘트 콘크리트의 흡수율, 탄산화 깊이 및 염화물이온 침투저항성은 폴리머-결합재비의 증가에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 초속경 폴리머 시멘트 콘크리트의 동결융해 저항성의 개선은 폴리머 에멀젼의 혼입에 의해 시멘트 수화물과 골재간의 접착성이 개선되기 때문이라 판단된다.
