Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an asphalt composition and a process for preparing such a composition.
  • the invention also relates to a mastic composition that can be used in the preparation of the asphalt composition and to a road surface comprising such an asphalt composition.
  • Asphalt compositions sometimes also called asphalt concrete, comprise bitumen- containing bituminous binder material and aggregates.
  • the binder material can be bitumen, but it may also contain polymers and other organic material to provide a good adhesion of the binder material to the aggregates.
  • the aggregates are typically mineral aggregates, such as fine filler, sand, gravel or optionally ground stones.
  • the asphalt compositions are commonly used in the preparation of road surfaces.
  • Bitumen is a dark-coloured solid or viscous liquid that occurs in nature or is obtained as a residue in petroleum refining. It is a mixture of paraffinic and aromatic hydrocarbons and heterocyclic compounds containing sulphur, nitrogen and oxygen. It tends to be soluble in carbon disulfide and trichloroethylene. It softens when it is heated. With filler and aggregates it forms asphalt. Bitumen may be modified to alter its properties. Polymers may be used to modify bitumen.
  • Known polymers that are used for this purpose include natural rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer (SBS) and ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA).
  • crumb rubber i.e. recycled rubber from automotive and truck scrap tires, may be used to modify the properties of bitumen.
  • filler i.e. aggregates with a particle size of smaller than about 63 pm
  • mortar is obtained.
  • sand i.e. aggregates with a particle size ranging from about 63 pm to about 2 mm, is added to bitumen mortar mastic, or in short mastic, is obtained.
  • Asphalt compositions for road applications are to fulfil a number of requirements.
  • the road surface should have a satisfactory durability or life expectancy.
  • One of the requirements that has a growing interest is the noise performance of the road surface.
  • Dense asphalt concrete is frequently used as road surface. The traffic noise on this type of road surfaces have become a subject of study in view of the unacceptable level of noise, especially in densely populated areas. Dense asphalt concrete tends to be very durable. In a dense asphalt concrete aggregates with a variety of particle sizes are present such that the resulting construction of aggregates and bituminous binder have a low amount of voids. In porous asphalt compositions, the proportion of relatively large aggregates is higher so that the voids are less filled by small aggregates. The porous asphalt compositions have as advantage the excellent drainage performance for rain.
  • the obtained voids absorb traffic noise well.
  • the highest noise reduction is obtained when road surfaces are porous, flexible and have a fine surface texture.
  • Porosity can be obtained by use of a gap-graded mineral fraction, implying that mineral particles, i.e. aggregates or fillers, with a certain size are largely absent.
  • the mineral particles having sizes that are above the gap will form a granular skeleton. This skeleton provides stability to the mixture.
  • the minerals with particles sizes that are below the gap have a larger specific surface than the minerals in the skeleton.
  • the surface texture is controlled by selection of the mineral grading.
  • bituminous binder material was modified with a polymer
  • bitumen properties could be altered, and the life expectancy could be prolonged. Therefore, several studies were undertaken to investigate whether the addition of polymers to the bituminous binder would have an effect on the life expectancy of road surfaces that have a good noise reducing performance.
  • Polymer-modified bitumen is used as the binder for producing porous open-textured asphalt.
  • the polymer can be a rubber, for example styrene butadiene rubbers or ground tire rubber.
  • small droplets or particles of polymer material are mixed with the heated bitumen under severe stirring such that a completely homogeneous mixture is obtained.
  • This document discloses a modified bitumen composition that comprises bitumen, a minor amount of crumb rubber, a small amount of FCC spent catalyst and optionally another low-value polymer.
  • the ingredients are mixed at elevated temperature whilst homogenizing, to yield a modified bituminous binder.
  • the polymer-modified bitumen tends to be very cohesive and relatively flexible.
  • An alternative method for obtaining good noise performance can be obtained by using layered porous asphalt.
  • a porous asphalt composition with relatively uniform but large aggregates is used as the lower layer, providing large voids for excellent drainage performance.
  • a layer of smaller aggregates with a uniform particle size is placed on top of the layer with large aggregates.
  • the resulting road surface with these two layers yield an improved noise reduction, that is mainly due to the fine texture of the upper layer which incurs less noise caused by tires etc. , and the increased thickness of the two layers which provide a better noise absorption.
  • PERS Poro-Elastic Road Surfaces
  • the binder in PERS mixtures is a synthetic polymer binder, such as polyurethane.
  • An example of such a road pavement is described in US 2004/0044104.
  • waste rubber particles with a size of 2 to 8 mm were mixed with an epoxy or urethane binder material and with stone aggregates having particles sizes in the range of less than 0.5 mm to about 30 mm.
  • the resulting mixture was used as elastic top coat on a pavement surface.
  • the specification teaches that when the size of the waste rubber particles is below 1 mm, the elasticity is insufficient and the noise reduction is unsatisfactory. When the particle sizes are 10 mm or bigger, the durability of the pavement is too low.
  • the workability of the mixture is also short. Owing to the curing time of the polyurethane or epoxy polymers, the workability time is limited, say in the order of 10 to 30 minutes. This is often regarded as too short for road surface manufacture. Further, it appeared that such pavements have a very short life expectancy.
  • JP 2007-154539 Another proposed solution to obtain a high level of noise reduction on pavements is described in JP 2007-154539.
  • an elastic paving material comprising bitumen and an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer as binder, aggregate, and rubber chips or rubber powder, is used to fill the voids of a porous pavement.
  • bitumen and an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer as binder, aggregate, and rubber chips or rubber powder
  • the present invention provides an asphalt composition
  • a bituminous binder material and solid particles composed of mineral aggregates and elastic particles, which elastic particles have a maximum particle size of at most 2.8 mm, and which solid particles are gap-graded, wherein the upper limit of the gap is bigger than the maximum particle size of the elastic particles, and wherein the mineral aggregates include particles with particle sizes above the upper limit of the gap as defined in claim 1.
  • the solid particles composed of mineral aggregates and elastic particles are gap-graded.
  • a gap is defined by a lower and upper limit.
  • solid particles having a size within the gap are substantially absent. Due to the gap-graded solid particles and to the mineral aggregates with sizes above the upper limit of the gap, porosity is introduced into the road surface that is produced from the asphalt composition. This has a positive effect on the noise performance of such road surface.
  • the mineral aggregates are bound to each other by means of a mastic that comprises the bituminous binder material and the fine particles, i.e. mineral aggregates with a size of 2.8 mm or less and the elastic particles.
  • the elastic particles are present between the coarse aggregate particles and ensure that a direct mutual contact of coarse aggregate particles cannot develop. Furthermore, the elastic particles tend to soften the mastic. These two effects result in a softening of the links between individual coarse mineral aggregates, allowing easier movement upon application of a load and thus lowering the mechanical impedance. If the maximum size of the elastic particles would be more than 2.8 mm, e.g. 4 mm in view of the series of standard sieves according to EN 12697-2 used for grading, then the coarse mineral aggregates above the gap would have a size e.g. up to 16 mm resulting in a rough surface structure and consequently insufficient noise reduction.
  • the elastic particles introduce elasticity into the mastic.
  • Elasticity is the tendency of solid materials to substantially return to their original shape after being deformed. Solid objects will deform when forces are applied on them. If the material is elastic, the object will return to its initial shape and size when these forces are removed.
  • the solid particle fraction with sizes below the gap comprise softer elastic particles as a complete or partial replacement for mineral aggregates. These softer elastic particles may act as bumper material that is present between the skeleton formed by the larger aggregates. As a result the PERS related problems with respect to skid resistance are overcome. This is because the fraction above the gap, which is responsible for the surface texture, is formed by mineral aggregate particles similar to existing porous asphalt.
  • the mastic content (bituminous binder and solid particles less than 2.8 mm) of the asphalt composition according to the invention may be increased by 20% compared to a common porous asphalt composition without loss of void ratio and porosity, e.g. if a common porous asphalt composition comprises 20% mastic, then the asphalt composition according to the invention may comprise up to 24% mastic, while void ratio and porosity are maintained at a similar level. It is assumed that this finding proofs the function of the elastic particles in the composition according to the invention for enlarging the distance between the coarse aggregates having sizes above the gap. A higher content of mastic also contributes to a longer service life.
  • the elastic particles may be formed from any material that has a lower stiffness than the mineral aggregates, stiffness being the extent to which a body resists deformation in response to an applied force.
  • the elastic particles in the present invention are in the form of distinct particles, suitably having a particle size of 2 ⁇ to 2.8 mm, more preferably from 63 ⁇ to 2 mm.
  • the elastic particles are elastic polymer particles that comprise an elastomer material.
  • the elastic polymer particles that are preferably present in the asphalt composition of the present invention are present in a different shape from the polymers that are present in polymer-modified bitumen compositions.
  • polymers are heated and homogenised so that a homogeneous mixture of polymer and bitumen is obtained.
  • the polymer chains form a matrix for the bitumen molecules and in this way alter the properties of the bitumen binder.
  • the elastic polymer particles in the present invention are in the form of distinct particles, suitably having a particle size of 2 ⁇ to 2.8 mm, more preferably from 63 m to 2 mm.
  • gap-graded solid particles refers to solid particles having a particle size distribution that is characterized by gap-grading, gap-grading being defined as particle size distribution for the solid particles wherein particles of certain sizes are substantially absent.
  • the particle sizes that are absent, form the gap, and the gap is characterized by a lower and an upper limit.
  • the upper limit of the gap is bigger than the maximum size of the elastic particles, which upper limit thus may be bigger than 2.8 mm.
  • the upper limit of the gap and the maximum particle size of the polymer particles is selected such that their difference is preferably from 1 to 5 mm, more preferably, from 2 to 4 mm. Also included are embodiments wherein the lower limit of the gap is bigger than the maximum size of the elastic particles, e.g. at least one millimetre bigger. More preferably, the grading is such that the lower limit of the gap is at least equal to the maximum size of the elastic particles.
  • the resulting asphalt composition lacks a certain grade of aggregates which facilitates the formation of voids and at the same time the elastic particles can easily be taken up in the bituminous binder and provide the mastic to bind the larger aggregates that form a skeleton, as described above.
  • the asphalt composition according to the present invention yields a road surface comprising the asphalt composition according to the present invention, wherein the aggregates are bound by means of the bituminous binder material into which the relatively small elastic, preferably elastic polymer, particles have been incorporated. Since the solid particles are gap-graded, they provide for a level of voids, which is beneficial for the noise reduction. Moreover, since the bituminous binder material contains small elastic particles, these elastic particles function as bumper material that prevents direct contact between the coarse mineral aggregates in the skeleton and at the same time, due to their elasticity, provides resilience between the aggregates. In this way the stiffness and also the mechanical impedance of the road surface is reduced, which has a beneficial effect on the reduction of the noise level.
