13 Ongoing work Define Jnr based on neat binders. Evaluate SPT creep and recovery testing to relate stress level in binder to mix. Evaluate test sections with know performance. 13

14 Evaluation of the Repeated Creep and Recovery Test Method as an Alternative SHRP + Requirement 14

15 No ER So What Do We Do? Use Use DSR DSR Approach Muti Stress Creep Recovery Test Two creep stress levels Ten cycles per stress level For Elastomeric modifiers Specify: % strain recovery > 15% or 20% Overall change between stress levels Run on the RTFOT Run on the same sample as RTFOT grading 15

16 Proposed MSCR TEST Protocol 3200 Pa Creep Stress 100 Pa 1 10 time Creep Strain time 16

17 What criteria? % recovered strain Creep 1st cycle 70C 1000 Pa (Peak Strain - recovered Strain)/Peak Strain % strain control Elvaloy Stylink AB time 17

18 Two s s with SBS. Not all binders are the same. 90 Differential 30 40% reduction Differential 18 81% reduction % recovery kPa kPa kPa kPa SBS SBS 18

27 PAV Aging 100 o C, AAM-1 Under Air 1% Phosphoric Acid Stiffness G*/Sinδ/kPa Control 105% 115% P2O Hours 27

28 PAV Aging 100 o C, ABM-1 Under Air 1% Phosphoric Acid Stiffness G*/Sinδ/kPa Control 105% 115% P2O Hours 28

29 Effect of 115% PPA Acid Modification on Original PG Grade Degrres Centigrade AAD-1 AAK-1 AAM-1 ABM-1 60% Bach 94% Bach Whiting Holly % Acid 29

30 Conclusion Based on 24 Hour Stiffness Any of the Phosphoric Acid Grades can be used Acids Containing Water Cause Foaming Green Acid is Likely to Cause Corrosion Stiffness is Asphalt Dependant AAK-1 1 (Boscan) is the Most Responsive ABM-1 1 (CA Valley) Showed No Stiffness Increase 30

31 Effect of Water on Gyratory Cores - ALF Mix no lime 31

32 Conclusion Effect of Water on Gyratory Cores PPA does not seem to be leaching out. 32

33 Proposed Work Plan Three binders with different sensitivities to PPA Two aggregates, non stripping and stripping; Amine anti- strip additives and lime Four stripping tests Effect of Polymer Modification with SBS 33
