PURPOSES : This study was conducted to evaluate the physical properties of the RAP 50 asphalt mixture containing polymer modified rejuvenator and warm-mix additive to improve the recycling rate of RAP and reduce CO2 emission. METHODS : Mix design of Polymer Modified Warm-mix Asphalt Mixture(RAP 50), and Hot Mix Asphalt Mixture(RAP 30) were produced and the properties of asphalt mixture such as Marshall Stability, ITS, Deformation Strength, TSR, and Dynamic Stability were compared between the two asphalt mixtures. RESULTS : The RAP 50 asphalt mixture showed superior or similar performances compared to the RAP 30 asphalt mixture in all the tests conducted. The results of the Marshall stability and dynamic stability in particular were 13,045N and 3,826 pass/mm, which were 11.37% and 76.7% greater than the RAP 30 asphalt mixture, which indicated that high plastic deformation resistance may be expected. CONCLUSIONS : The results obtained from laboratory tests on the two types of mixtures indicated that the use of polymer modified rejuvenator and warm-mix additive not only allows to increase the proportion of RAP but also improves its properties under lower temperature condition than RAP 30 asphalt mixture. Additionally, it was confirmed that plastic deformation resistance was high and moisture resistance and crack resistance were improved for a RAP 50 asphalt mixture.
환경보호에 부응하고 고에너지효율성을 갖춘 중온아스팔트혼합물이 가열아스팔트혼합물의 대안으로 부각되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 아스파민을 혼합하여 제조한 중온아스팔트혼합물을 실험적으로 평가하고, 역학적-경험적 포장설계법인 MEPDG를 이용하여 설계한 결과를 일반아스팔트혼합물 설계와 비교하는 것이다. 실험재료는 최대공칭치수 12.5mm인 골재와 PG64-28바인더가 사용되었으며, 기존 혼합물, 0.3%와 0.5%의 아스파민을 혼합한 중온아스팔트혼합물에 대한 회복탄성계수실험이 실시되었다. 실험결과를 MEPDG 설계의 입력변수로 하여 분석한 결과, 아스파민을 사용한 중온아스팔트혼합물의 소성변형량이 일반혼합물에 비해 훨씬 적어 소성변형에 대한 저항성이 향상됨을 알 수 있었다.
Performance Evaluation was conducted for analyzing fundamental properties of warm-mix asphalt mixture using 100% steel slag. This study tested and compared asphalt mixture used three types of asphalt binder and two types of aggregate.
