아스팔트 혼합물의 인공노화 방안 연구

초록

This study was carried out for developing artificial short-term aging (SA) and long-term aging (LA) methods of asphalt mixtures in which the aging level is properly matched with those of RTFO and PAV aged binders, respectively. The specimens were made of the short-term aged loose asphalt mixture which was kept in a convection oven at 154℃ for 2 hours and were aged at 110oC for 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours for SA. Large molecular size (LMS) were measured using GPC after SA and LA to evaluate aging extents of each mixture with aging time. It is shown that the LMS was increased with aging time increment, and that from the LMS(%) change ratio, it was possible to suggest an appropriate artificial aging time which is corresponding level of aging with RTFO and PAV. It was found that SA was somewhat strong and LA for 48 hours at 110oC would be appropriate if sort-term aging is properly controlled.
