Abstract:

In order to determine the rheological response of ultrasonically disposed petroleum asphalt， a series of rheological tests were used to analyze the changes in the indexes of three typical petroleum asphalt before and after undergoing ultrasonic disposal. It was found that ultrasound reduces the real-time viscosity of asphalt at high temperature by more than 50%， and has an irrecoverable residual effect； the disposal asphalt becomes slightly softer and the thixotropic limit is increased at mid-temperature； and the creep capacity of the disposal asphalt is reduced at low temperature. Chemical and microanalysis showed that the content of heavy components in the asphalt was significantly reduced， and asphaltene aggregates were homogenized and dispersed. Selective inhomogeneous pressurized heating during ultrasound action induced a cracking reaction in the asphalt， which was responsible for the changes in chemical and rheological properties. This significant physicochemical effect of power ultrasound on petroleum asphalt has the potential to be used in road engineering techniques such as warm mixing， recycling， and modified processing.

Key words: road engineering, asphalt, power ultrasound, rheological properties, response mechanism, cracking reaction
