“…After three days of molding, the above two ratios were 78% and 67%, respectively. Therefore, it can be seen that the cold recycled specimens prepared with emulsified high-viscosity asphalt showed better early-strength [41].…”

The strength of EACRM (emulsified asphalt cold recycled mixture) is closely related to the properties and proportion of raw materials. In this paper, the strength formation mechanism of EACRM was first studied through microscopic analysis, and the influence regular of aggregate gradation, emulsified asphalt, water consumption, cement consumption, and other factors on its strength was analyzed through a series of laboratory tests. The analysis results show that the asphalt binder plays the role of cementing material in cement emulsified asphalt mortar. The combination of cement and emulsified asphalt is a physical combination. The hydration product not only increases the viscosity of asphalt cement, but also makes the surface of asphalt cement become uneven, which increases the adhesion area with the aggregate. Therefore, the microstructure of the interface between mortar and aggregate is improved. The bonding force of the interface and the mechanical properties of concrete are improved. Due to the influence of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) materials, the excessive amount of emulsified asphalt and cement are not conducive to improve the strength of cold recycled mixture. Through experiments, the optimal amount of emulsified asphalt and cement is determined as 2.9% and 1.5%, respectively, for the RAP materials. At the same time, improving the performance of emulsified asphalt and adding quicklime and organic activator are also helpful to improve the strength of a cold recycled mixture.

“…For this reason, several authors have characterised the mechanical behaviour of CRAM by using the complex modulus [9][10][11]. For CRAMs and CBTMs, the combined effect of bitumen and cement is very effective in terms of water sensitivity [7,8,[12][13][14] and high-temperature stability [12,13,15].…”

The cold recycling of reclaimed asphalt (RA) for the rehabilitation of end-of-life pavements is becoming very common. Cold recycled asphalt mixtures (CRAMs) are characterised by a curing time, required to reach the material design mechanical performance. Since the laboratory simulation of the long-term field curing is not yet a standardised procedure, a CRAM was laid as binder course in a full-scale trial section that was monitored for more than two years. The comparison between field curing and oven-curing in laboratory at 40 °C was performed by carrying out indirect tensile stiffness modulus (ITSM), indirect tensile strength (ITS) and complex modulus tests, as well as measurements of the air voids content. The evolution of the ITSM as a function of the curing time (field/oven-curing) was obtained for both gyratory specimens and cores taken from the trial section at different time periods. Results showed that the material stiffness development can be accelerated with a small effect on its long-term value if oven-curing is applied a few days/weeks after compaction. A linear relationship was found between the ITS measured on the cores and their air voids content. Finally, the complex modulus tests confirmed that CRAMs provide an intermediate behaviour between asphalt concrete mixtures and cement-bound mixtures.

“…The bond between emulsion and aggregate in the cold recycling mixture was found to be significantly influenced by the coating property, and the bond was fundamental in terms of guaranteeing the durability of the cold recycling mixture [24]. The adhesion between asphalt binder and fine aggregate could be improved by adding cement, thus increasing the moisture stability of the mixture with 100% RAP [25]. The cement could hydrate with the water residue in the emulsified asphalt and increase the bonding between the mastic and aggregate.…”

Emulsified asphalt has been widely used in various surface treatment methods such as chip seal for low-volume road preservation. Using modified emulsified asphalt made it possible to use chip seal technology on medium- and even high-volume traffic pavements. The main objective of the study is to quantify the residue characteristics of rubber-modified emulsified asphalt and to assess the effectiveness of using crumb rubber to modify emulsified asphalt binder. The four emulsified asphalt residues used the distillation procedure. Then, the rheology characteristics of emulsified asphalt residue were evaluated. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) test analyzed the chemical change of emulsified asphalt during the aging procedure. The results indicate that the evaporation method cannot remove all the water in emulsified asphalt. The mass change during the rolling thin film oven (RTFO) process only represented the component change of emulsified asphalt binder residue. Both the high-temperature and low-temperature performance grade of the two emulsified asphalt binders with rubber were lower. The original asphalt binder adopted to emulsification had a crucial influence on the performance of emulsified asphalt. The rubber modification enhanced the property of the emulsified asphalt binder at low temperatures, and the improvement effect was enhanced as the rubber content in the emulsified asphalt was raised. The C=O band was more effective in quantifying the aging condition of the residue. The findings of this study may further advance the emulsified asphalt technology in pavement construction and maintenance.
