PURPOSES : The use of hydrated lime or other liquid anti-stripping agents (ASA) is the most common method of improving the moisture susceptibility of asphalt mixes. ASAs are also known to have an anti-aging effect, according to several researchers. Therefore, the use of ASAs is expected to enhance the stability of asphalt pavements. The purpose of this study is to investigate the anti-aging effect of ASAs that are found in the domestic market. METHODS : In this study, an asphalt binder and a mixture mixed with typical domestic solid and liquid ASAs were prepared and aged to evaluate the physicochemical changes. A liquid additive developed by a Korean oil refinery was used as the liquid ASA, and hydrated lime was utilized as the solid ASA. The aging process of the asphalt was determined in the laboratroy based on previous studies to simulate the aging process inh te field. RESULTS : The result of the laboratory experiment indicates that both the solid and liquid ASAs have an anti-aging effect. Moreover, the liquid additive performed relatively better than the hydrated lime. CONCLUSIONS : If ASAs have an anti-aging effect in addition to the anti-stripping function, it is expected to improve the stability of the asphalt pavement significantly. However, few studies have been carried out on the anti-aging effect of ASAs found in the domestic market. In this study, we conducted a fundamental study on the anti-aging effect to help in the selection and use of ASAs in the domestic asphalt-paving industry.

When there is a significant stripping in asphalt pavement, it is common practice to use a hydrated lime (HL) as an anti-stripping additive (ASA). However, since many asphalt plants do not have facilities for weighing and casting HL, they prefer to use of a liquid-type ASA (LA). Therefore, various brands of LAs which show proper anti-stripping function are currently developed, imported, and marketed in Korea. In addition to the anti-stripping effect, the HL has been known to give a significant age-retarding effect on paved asphalt in the field. Therefore, there was a question about whether or not the LA provides the same anti-aging effect as The HL. This study investigated anti-aging effect of the asphalt mixes which were prepared using both ASAs and short-term aged and long-term aged in the laboratory. The absolute viscosity was measured as an aging index from the binder recovered from the mixes after short-term aging (STA) and long-term aging (LTA) processes. The results showed that there was a significant higher aging found from the LA-added mix than the normal mix without any ASA. On the other hands, the mix with HL showed significantly lower ageing level than the LA-added mix and normal mix. The retardation of age-hardening by using HL was more effectively observed when the STA condition was stronger.

아스팔트 혼합물이 운반·대기 중에 단기노화(short-term aging: STA)되는 것은 잘 알려진 사실이며 노화정도는 혼합물의 온도가 높음에 따라 그리고 시간이 길어짐에 따라 지수 함수적으로 증가되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한 같은 온도와 시간에 같은 바인더, 골재 및 입도를 사용한 같은 혼합물이라도 사용되는 첨가제의 종류에 따라 노화도에 차이가 난다. 그리고 혼합물의 종류에 따라서도 노화도에 차이가 큰 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 박리방지제(anti-stripping agent: ASA)의 종류와 혼합물의 종류에 따른 노화도의 차이를 비교분석 하였다. ASA로는 박리방지효과가 우수한 분말의 소석회와 액상 ASA를 비교하였다. 혼합물은 밀입도 아스팔트 (dense-graded asphalt: DGA) 표층용 혼합물과 쇄석 매스틱 아스팔트 (stone mastic asphalt: SMA) 혼합물을 비교하였다. 노화도는 아스팔트 노화의 척도로는 가장 많이 쓰이는 절대점도(absolute viscosity: AV)를 이용하였다. STA 온도와 시간에 따른 AV의 차이를 STA 처리된 혼합물로부터 추출·회수하여 60℃에서 측정하였다. 시험결과 같은 온도와 시간으로 STA 처리된 혼합물에서 소석회가 사용된 혼합물의 노화도가 월등히 낮았으며, 혼합물의 종류로는 SMA 혼합물의 노화도가 DGA 혼합물보다 낮게 나타났다. 이는 소석회가 박리방지효과 뿐만 아니라 노화억제 효과가 크기 때문이며, SMA는 바인더 함량이 높아 골재를 피복한 아스팔트 필름의 두께가 두꺼워 노화도가 적게 나타난 것으로 판단되었다.

PURPOSES:The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of anti-stripping on asphalt mixtures constituting anti-stripping agents.METHODS:Based on the literature review, asphalt mixture added with anti-stripping agents was prepared, and these asphalt mixtures were evaluated for anti-stripping properties for each anti-stripping agent through various lab tests, namely, tensile strength ratio (TSR), dynamic immersion test, uniaxial compression test, and indirect tensile strength test (IDT). The liquid anti-stripping agents used in the lab test were premixed with each asphalt binder (PG 64-22, PG 76-22) before being mixed with the aggregate.RESULTS:The result of the TSR test revealed that the effect of anti-stripping was highest when hydrated lime and liquid anti-stripping agent W were added. The correlation coefficient R2 between the TSR result and cohesion ratio is 0.99, which indicates that the sensitivity of the TSR to moisture damage is reliable from the mechanical point of view. The covering ratio of the asphalt binder to the liquid anti-stripping agent W was determined to be higher than that to the other liquid anti-stripping agents.CONCLUSIONS:It is considered that the improved moisture resistance of asphalt mixture as a result of the use of anti-stripping agents can reduce the incidence of various pavement damages such as portholes caused by stripping, and the performance life of the asphalt road pavement can be prolonged.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to analyze the performance of anti-stripping agent depending on its type and content to reduce pothole, an increasing pavement distress due to abnormal climate intensity. METHODS : In the past years, U.S and many countries in Europe use hydrated lime and liquid anti-stripping agent in asphalt mixtures. Hydrated lime or liquid anti-stripping agent is substituted for filler and binder, respectively, to improve the anti-stripping property of asphalt mixtures. To investigate this, indirect tensile strength test was performed and TSR values were compared for different content of hydrated lime and types of liquid anti-stripping agent in asphalt mixture. RESULTS : Test results indicate that hydrated lime remarkably increased the asphalt mixture performance on anti-stripping denoted by the increased in TSR values from 55% to 100%. Liquid anti-stripping agent also increased the value of TSR but not significant. In addition, depending on the types of aggregate, TSR values and effect of liquid anti-stripping were different. CONCLUSIONS : Using anti-stripping agents improve the anti-stripping property of asphalt mixture especially hydrated lime; however, more experiments should be conducted to improve the reliability about the effect of liquid anti-stripping agent.

본 연구는 박리방지 첨가제를 혼입한 아스팔트 혼합물의 수분민감성에 대한 특성 평가 방안을 제시하고자, 기존의 수침 시험을 개선한 3가지 종류(Hc, Vs, F-T)의 수침 방법을 통하여 생석회, 소석회, 1종의 액상 박리방지 첨가제를 혼입한 각 아스팔트 혼합물에 대한 수분민감성의 거동 특성을 분석하였다. 실험방법은 AASHTO TP-9에 규정된 간접인장시험(Indirect Tensile Test, IDT)을 통한 크리프시험 (Creep Test), 회복탄성계수시험(Resilient Modulus Test) 및 강도시험(Strength Test)을 수행하였다. 분석방법으로는 미국 플로리다 대학의 Roque에 의해 제안된 에너지비(Energy Ratio, ER) 개념을 사용하여 박리방지제의 사용에 따른 효과 및 수분민감도 특성을 평가하였다(Roque, 2004). 시험결과, 수분처리 방법 에 따른 아스팔트 흔합물의 물성 변화뿐만 아니라 박리 방지 첨가제에 따른 물성 변화가 현저하게 나타났다. 또한 누적 수분 손상에 의해 발생되는 균열에 대한 저항성이 각 첨가제 및 수분처리 방법에 따라 변화됨을 나타내었다. 이를 토대로 Energy Ratio를 분석한 결과 약 10~30% 정도의 균열 저항성 변화가 나타났다.

본 연구는 산업부산물인 폐타이어인 #30 체를 거의 다 통과한 CRM 입자를 아스팔트 콘크리트 혼합물의 개질재로서 8%, 10%, 12%를 각각 습식 및 건식방법의 CRM 개질아스팔트 혼합물에 대하여 동결융해에 의한 수분취약성 시험을 통하여 동결융해저항성을 평가하였다. 건식 및 습식방법에 의한 CRM 개질아스팔트 혼합물의 배합설계를 통하여 최적아스팔트 함량을 결정하였고. OAC로 제조한 CRM 개질 혼합물은 반복주행시험과 수분취약성시험을 수행하였다. 그 결과, CRM 개질아스팔트 혼합물의 소성변형 저항성은 일반 AP-5 혼합물보다 우수하게 나타났다. 그러나 수분취약성시험에 의한 동결융해 저항성이 상당히 낮게 나타나 동결융해에 의한 수분취약성에 아주 민감한 것으로 나타났다. 반면에, CRM 개질아스팔트 혼합물에 박리저감제의 첨가는 동결융해에 의한 수분취약성에 대한 저항성을 상당히 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 국내에서 CRM 개질아스팔트 혼합물을 사용할 때에는 반드시 수분취약성에 대한 동결융해저항성에 대한 예방책이 제시된 혼합물을 사용될 것이 권장된다.
