Abstract

This study investigates the decoupling between bulk chemical composition and high-temperature viscoelastic recovery in rejuvenated asphalt binders. A pressurized aging vessel (PAV)-aged binder (AC60/70) was rejuvenated using pyrolytic bio-oils from sugarcane bagasse (SBO) and rice straw (RSO) at 5–20 wt% dosages. SARA fractionation, colloidal instability index (Ic), penetration, and multiple stress creep recovery (MSCR) testing at 0.1 and 3.2 kPa were conducted before and after a rolling thin film oven (RTFO) aging. Both bio-oils restored SARA fractions to nearly identical levels (Ic = 0.541–0.572), yet penetration diverged substantially (79 vs. 36 dmm at 20% for SBO and RSO, respectively). After RTFO aging, MSCR responses converged across all formulations regardless of pre-aging differences, yielding identical an Equivalent Single Axle Load (ESAL) classification. This convergence is attributed to selective volatilization of low-molecular-weight bio-oil components during thermal conditioning, consistent with findings from a companion rheological–fatigue study. The results reveal a fundamental decoupling: bulk chemical indices, while useful for compositional assessment, do not correspond to stress-dependent viscoelastic recovery mechanisms governing rutting resistance. Performance-based rheological testing is therefore essential for reliable evaluation of rejuvenated binders under field-relevant conditions.

Abstract

This study investigates the hypothesis that mineral fillers with distinct surface characteristics, mineralogical compositions, and morphologies exhibit different reinforcement mechanisms in asphalt mastics. Shale and pumice were evaluated as alternative mineral fillers and compared with conventional granite and limestone at 20% and 30% filler-to-asphalt (F/A) ratios by volume. Filler characterization included X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), specific surface area (SSA), and hydrophilicity coefficient (HC) measurements. Rheological characterization was performed using dynamic shear rheometer, including temperature sweep, frequency sweep master curves, multiple stress creep recovery (MSCR), linear amplitude sweep (LAS), and Glover–Rowe (G–R) analyses. Pumice, dominated by amorphous volcanic glass with the highest SSA (59.18 m²/g), exhibited rutting-dominant modification with the highest complex modulus enhancement (7.3–9.4 times at 30% F/A) and lowest non-recoverable creep compliance. Shale, composed primarily of quartz and kaolinite with layered morphology and moderate SSA (43.00 m²/g), demonstrated balanced rheological response and achieved the longest fatigue life (Nf,5% = 45,200 cycles at 20% F/A). These findings demonstrate that filler-specific reinforcement mechanisms are governed by mineralogical composition and morphology, supporting performance-based filler selection tailored to climatic and loading conditions.
