Stabilizing and reinforcing effects of different fibers on asphalt mortar performance

Abstract: Physical properties of different fibers (mineral, cellulose, or carbon fiber) and their stabilizing and reinforcing effects on asphalt mortar performance were studied. Scanning electron microscopy was used to study the effect of fiber's microstructure on asphalt mortar's performance. Laboratory tests of mesh-basket draindown and oven heating were designed and performed to evaluate the fibers' asphalt absorption and thermostability. A cone penetration test was used to study the flow resistance of fiber-modified… Show more

“…Some researchers have evaluated the shear strength of fiber-reinforced asphalt using the fall cone method. Basalt fiber shows better reinforcing effect than lignin and other fibers for the same asphalt [28,29], which is similar to the findings in this paper. The higher surface energy of basalt fiber could be an explanation for its good reinforcing effect.…”

“…The G * of PAN/SBS and KD‐PAN/SBS composite modified asphalt raises as the fiber content increases. This is because fiber has strong adsorption, thickening, and stiffening effects on the asphalt, 24 which enhance the deformation resistance of modified asphalt. At a fixed fiber content and temperature, G * of KD‐PAN/SBS modified asphalt is larger than that of PAN/SBS composite modified asphalt.…”

“…In addition, water-related damages such pothole formation, loosening, and stripping often occur in humid areas, thus reducing the service life of asphalt pavements [1,2]. Current reinforcing methods for asphalt mixtures include incorporating additives such as polymers and fibers [3][4][5]. However, high costs and complex preparation processes limit the utilization of polymeric reinforcing.…”
