2017-1-4 Project title: Workability of Asphalt Binders at Mixing Temperatures for Hot and Warm Mix Asphalt 16. Abstract Conventional hot mix asphalt (HMA) is produced by heating the aggregate and the asphalt binder to elevated temperatures that are typically in the range of 150C to 160C. These temperatures ensure that the viscosity of the

Ray Brown INTRODUCTION The term workability has been used to describe several properties related to the construction of hot mix asphalt (HMA). First, some have used this term to describe the ease with which HMA can be worked by hand after being placed on the roadway.
Get Price2021-11-8 Mixing and Compaction Temperatures for Modified Asphalt Binders The use of polymer-modified asphalt binders has become much more common over the past two decades. Many types of polymers have been used in paving asphalts to enhance the per- formance of asphalt pavements in a wide range of climates and loading conditions.
Get PriceAn increasingly important issue with regards to hot mix asphalt is the ability to compact and/or place mixes with ease. Some of the factors that contribute to stiff mixes are: increased use of coarse-graded mixes, increased use of polymer-modified binders, aggregate shape, binder content, and placement of asphalt in colder temperatures. These are only a few of the many factors that could cause ...

Get Price2013-10-1 Workability at these reduced temperatures is typically achieved by the use of chemical additives in the asphalt binder or by foaming the asphalt binder using small percentages of water. The use of WMA is associated with advantages such as reduced emissions during mixture production, extended paving season and reduced aging in the asphalt binder.
Get PriceThe Asphalt Institute equiviscous concept works well for unmodified, unfilled binders. For most modified binders, the equiviscous concept results in excessive mixing and compaction temperatures: Emission concerns Binder degradation concerns Most specifying agencies have relied on binder suppliers to recommend appropriate temperatures.

Get PriceMixing and compaction temperatures are generally related with binder viscosity which depends on binder grade and composition. Consequently, the equiviscous temperatures or Workability Temperatures (T work), for a viscosity reference assumed by the Asphalt Institute as 0.17 Pas, are not the same for all binders used on road construction.

Get Price2017-10-3 Warm mix asphalt (WMA) has become very popular in asphalt pavement construction because it allows reducing both energy consumptions and carbon emissions. WMA can be obtained by using different types of additives and can be produced, applied, and compacted at temperatures 20–40 °C lower than hot mix asphalt. WMA additives allow reducing the working temperatures without
