Abstract:To analyze the application of high modulus asphalt mixtures in cold regions,polyolefin-based high-modulus agents are separately added to 90# matrix asphalt and Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene(SBS)modified asphalt to prepare high modulus modified asphalt mixtures AC-10-SBS(H),AC-20-90#(H),and AC-20-SBS(H).The impact of adding high modulus agents on the road performance of asphalt mixtures is analyzed.The results indicate that:The addition of high modulus agents can effectively enhance the road performance of AC-20 graded 90# matrix asphalt and SBS modified asphalt mixtures;the low-temperature performance of high modulus 90# matrix asphalt mixtures decreases,while the low-temperature performance of high-modulus SBS modified asphalt mixtures improves and meets regulatory requirements,with optimal values for Hamburg rut depth,dynamic modulus,freeze-thaw strength splitting ratio,and fatigue life.The low-temperature performance,water stability,and fatigue life of AC-10-SBS(H)are superior to those of AC-20-SBS(H),while the high-temperature stability of AC-20-SBS(H)is better than that of AC-10-SBS(H);at a temperature of 15 ℃ and a loading frequency of 10 Hz,the dynamic modulus of AC-20 and AC-10 high modulus modified asphalt mixtures are similar.It is recommended that in cold regions,AC-10 and AC-20 high modulus asphalt mixtures adopt a combination of high-modulus agent and SBS modified asphalt.
