Abstract

The influence of pH of emulsified asphalt, the kinds and content of emulsifiers and stabilizers on asphalt-aggregate adhesion have been investigated in this paper. Results show that the pH of the emulsified asphalt has great impact on asphalt-aggregate adhesion by way of the effect of pH on asphalt, asphalt-aggregate adhesion is worst when asphalt emulsion at pH≈4, which is close to the isoelectric point of asphalt, the bigger the zeta potential absolute value of emulsified asphalt, the better the asphalt-aggregate adhesion property. Effect of emulsifiers on asphalt-aggregate adhesion is complex, the best dosage is at 0.2%. The addition of organic stabilizers are superior to inorganic stabilizers to improve the asphalt-aggregate adhesion, the best dosage is at 0.4%. Effect of mixing emulsifier and stabilizer is better than single-doped emulsifier and stabilizer.
