Abstract
Effect of three de-icing additives: NaCl, wrapped NaCl (W-NaCl) and Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) on thermo-oxidative and ultraviolet aging properties of bitumen were investigated by thin film oven test (TFOT), pressure aging vessel (PAV) and ultraviolet (UV) radiation test. The experimental result illustrated that compared with bitumen with MF, the softening point and viscosity of bitumen with NaCl and W-NaCl increased and the ductility decreased distinctly after TFOT, PAV and UV aging, indicating that NaCl and W-NaCl accelerated the aging of bitumen. However, for bitumen with LDHs, the softening point and viscosity decreased significantly, the ductility increased after aging, which demonstrated that the anti-aging properties of bitumen were improved effectively by LDHs.
