1 Bitumen & Bituminous Materials Dr Ian M Lancaster

2 History Formed by Evaporation, oxidation and polymerisation of crude oil Natural deposits: Lake asphalt, rock asphalt, gilsonite Early uses: Waterproofing ships (Noah s Ark) Mortar for Walls (Babylon) Mummification (Egypt) Sealant for temples (3000 BC) Street of Procession (Babylon, 600 BC) Medication (until 1500 AD) 2

3 What is Bitumen? A dark-brown to black, highly viscous material obtained from the residue of processing suitable crude oils. In chemical terms: A complex mixture of aliphatic, aromatic and naphthenic hydrocarbons in combination with mono-, di- and poly-substituted heterocycles and heterosubstituted chains of varying molecular weight. The predominant hetero-atoms being oxygen, nitrogen and sulphur. 3

4 Crude oil composition 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% North Sea Russian Middle East S. American Gas Gasoline Diesel Lubes Bitumen 4

10 Why use Polymer-modified bitumen? To improve performance Rutting, fatigue, fuel resistance To increase pavement lifetime To solve specific pavement problems Point loading Torque stress Fuel resistance To allow changes in design Reduced thickness 10

12 Bitumen Behavior - Thermoplastic Hot Soft Fatting up Cold Brittle Fretting Difference between softening point and brittle point should be as great as possible 12

13 Bitumen Behaviour - Viscoelastic Spring Elastic (rigid) High Speed Dashpot Viscous (Soft) Low Speed 13

14 Effects of Modification Change in Basic Properties Increase in Softening Point Decrease in Penetration Increase in Viscosity Lower Fraass Brittle Point (also function of base binder) Improved Performance Rheological Properties Rutting & Fatigue Cohesion Tensile Properties Ductility Thermal Cracking 14

23 Fibre modification Drainage control Increase binder content Increase viscosity Reduce drainage Reduce workability Increase stiffness 23

24 Bituminous Mixtures Dense Impermeable Divert water from the structure Open Porous, permeable, semi-permeable Conduct water through the structure 24

25 Material Specifications EN13108 Part 1 Asphaltic Concrete Part 4 Hot Rolled Asphalt Part 5 Stone Mastic Asphalt Part 7 Porous Asphalt PD6691 How to do it PD6692 How to test it 25

26 Hot Rolled Asphalt Key Requirement: Stiff, yet flexible mortar to reduce rutting Binder with high softening point / viscosity Application General use Prevention of water ingress Bridges High performance with PmB / high stone content 26

27 Stone Mastic Asphalt Key Requirement: Thick binder film to minimise aging fibres Ease of handling / compaction Polymer modified for flexibility & durability Application General use to high performance Care binder content. compaction cooling 27

28 SMA / Porous Asphalt Thick film improves durability oxygen Stone-stone contact binder must absorb stresses 28

29 Ageing control Low mixing temperatures Short storage times Local delivery Low paving temperatures Dense mixes Thicker binder films 29

30 Effects of Ageing Higher Softening Point Lower Penetration Higher Viscosity More Brittle Chemically Different more asphaltenes & resins less saturates & aromatics Risk of Pavement Failure 30

31 Asphaltic Concete Key requirement Application dependent Structural layers (EME) Stiff, flexible binder (10/20 or 15/25) Footway application Compliant, easy to lay. 31

32 Best practice road note 42 Core asphalt principles Pavements should act as one layer Joints are weaknesses Seal & bond layers Asphalt virtues High binder content Small aggregate size Low voids Prevent water ingress Maintain drainage 32
