The present invention discloses a method of hot recycling repairing by optimizing a proportion of an asphalt mixture on a pavement alignment variation section. According to the method of the present invention, by regulating and optimizing the proportion of a recycled asphalt mixture, internal frictional resistance and cohesion of the recycled asphalt mixture are improved, elastic modulus and shear strength of the recycled asphalt mixture are increased, overall bearing capacity of an asphalt pavement is improved, and diseases such as tracks caused by vehicle loads are effectively resisted. The pavement asphalt mixture is made to adapt to and be enough to bear additional loads increased manifold without generating early defects and road diseases. Therefore, the overall service life of a road is further prolonged.

Asphalt paving system and method involves the use of a primer, comprising hydrophobic microwave absorbing material mixed in a hydrophobic liquid, between an asphalt layer and a base layer below. The primer is configured to be deposited on the base layer at room temperature without preheating. Heating the hydrophobic microwave absorbing material, sandwiched between the asphalt and base layers, by microwave energy, allows for both effective de-icing of the asphalt pavement and for efficient repairs of the pavement, the latter by striping of the asphalt layer from the base layer.

The present invention relates to an asphalt product. The asphalt product includes an asphalt binder and a bio-oil blend comprising a mixture of a non-hydrogenated bio-oil and a partially hydrogenated bio-oil, where the bio-oil blend is mixed with the asphalt binder to form an asphalt product having a shear stiffness of 0.20 kPa to 11,000 kPa at a temperature ranging from 25° C. to 85° C. and/or a viscosity of 0.15 Pa.Math.s to 1.50 Pa.Math.s at a temperature ranging from 120° C. to 165° C. The present invention further relates to methods of producing an asphalt product and methods of applying an asphalt product to a surface.

A high-grade asphalt composition includes 100 parts by weight of asphalt; 40-80 parts by weight of styrene-isoprene-styrene; 20-60 parts by weight of a polymer resin; 10-50 parts by weight of an anti-rutting agent; 2-15 parts by weight of a filler; 5-30 parts by weight of ceramic nanoparticles; 5-10 parts by weight of a binder; 3-15 parts by weight of an antioxidant; 1-10 parts by weight of a stabilizer; 5-20 parts by weight of a fiber; and 2-20 parts by weight of an adhesion promoter. A construction method is provided using the asphalt composition. The present asphalt composition is not easily rutted, aged and/or stripped. At the same time, the present asphalt can prevent water penetration and potholes, can reduce noise, and enable the roads to be paved at low costs.

Pavement aging can be reduced by applying to an asphalt-containing pavement a topcoat layer or a surface treatment containing asphalt binder emulsion with sterols.

A bituminous mastic includes:—from 0.5% to 25% by mass of at least one hydrocarbon oil, the total content of paraffinic compounds of which, measured according to the ASTM d2140 method, is greater than or equal to 50% by mass, and preferably greater than or equal to 60% by mass, relative to the total mass of the oil,—from 15% to 60% by mass of bitumen,—from 20% to 60% by mass of fillers, and—at most 14%, by mass of at least one polymer, preferably chosen from elastomers, relative to the total mass of bituminous mastic. A method for preparing such a bituminous mastic and to the uses thereof, in particular in certain road and/or industrial applications.

Cold-in-place asphalt recycling is disclosed. A foamed asphalt may be produced by injecting water and optionally compressed air into a hot asphalt stream. A lubricating surfactant may be added to the hot asphalt stream to improve performance. The foamed asphalt may be mixed with reclaimed material to provide a uniformly coated paving material that can compacted to a desired density.

A pavement composition includes a recycled hot mix asphalt (HMA) sheet mix composition including more than 50% and up to 100% recycled fines mixed with a rejuvenating agent. The recycled fines of the HMA sheet mix are separated from a reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) composition and substantially all of the recycled fines are capable of passing through a sieve having an opening size of ⅜ inch (9.5 mm). Pavement systems include an existing pavement layer and a thin-lift overlay made of the recycled HMA sheet mix on the existing pavement layer. Pavement systems also include a three-layer system including a leveling course layer, an interlayer, and a surface course layer in which the leveling course layer and/or the surface course layer include a recycled HMA sheet mix composition.
