Abstract
In order to study aging behavior and anti-aging performance of asphalt,aging tests were carried out with rolling thin film oven test(RTFOT) and oven aging test at 60℃,and aged asphalt was extracted from pavements of different service life.Viscosity of asphalt samples was fitted with nonlinear differential dynamic model.With parameter study,property changes,aging rate of asphalt and the difference of aging mechanism were analysed under different aging conditions.It was shown that the nonlinear differential dynamic model can simulate asphalt aging process in the laboratory or on-site effectively.At the same time,model parameters(L and r) can quantify aging state and aging rate.Asphalt had its limited aging state corresponding with different aging temperature.Ultimate aging degree of RTFOT and field aging were about 4~5 times of that of oven aging test at 60 ℃.And aging effect of RTFOT for 6h was about equivalent with that of field aging for 6 years.Thus time-delay RTFOT can simulate long-term aging of pavement asphalt.
