Asphalt EmulsionsThe use of asphalt emulsions began in the early part of the 20th century. Today 5% to 10% of paving-grade asphalt is used in emulsified form, but the extent of emulsion usage varies widely between countries.
The United States is the world’s largest producer of asphalt emulsion.
Standard bitumen (asphalt) emulsions are normally considered to be of the O/W type and contain from 40% to 75% bitumen, 0.1% to 2.5% emulsifier, 25% to 60% water plus some other minor components.
With viscosities in the range 0.5–10 Poise at 60°C, asphalt emulsion is of considerably lower viscosity than asphalt itself (100–4,000 Poise), allowing it to be use with these advantages:
▸ Lower temperature applications▸ Reduce emissions▸ Reduce energy consumption▸ Avoid oxidation of the asphalt▸ Less hazardous▸ Cost effectiveness
Motivation

Asphalt Emulsions Overview
▸ An emulsion is a dispersion of small droplets of one liquid in another liquid. Typical examples include such everyday products as milk, butter, mayonnaise, and cosmetic creams.
▸ Emulsions are made by mixing hot asphalt binder with water containing emulsifying agents and applying mechanical energy sufficient to break up the bitumen into droplets.
▸ Other components & their functions:▸ Calcium and Sodium Chloride -> to reduce the osmosis of water into the bitumen and
minimize the changes in viscosity▸ Adhesion Promoters -> have sufficient adhesion to aggregates▸ Solvent -> to improve emulsification, to reduce settlement, improve curing rate at low
temperatures▸ Latex -> Polymer modification can improve the properties of bitumen in terms of cohesion,
resistance to cracking at low temperatures

Testing Asphalt Emulsions
Most test methods have been accepted as ASTM standards. The tests fall into three groups:
1. Test the handling properties of the emulsion, such as residue content, viscosity, and storage stability sieve residue
2. Those that classify the emulsion into rapid-, medium-, or slow-setting grades, such as demulsibility, cement mix test, and coating tests
3. Tests on the residue recovered by evaporation, such as penetration or ductility
WHAT IS NEEDED FOR THE FUTURE?
Probably the greatest need that exists is the method to evaluate rheological properties of fresh emulsions and residue because current purchase specifications use traditional and empiricalviscosity, penetration and ductility test methods that are unrelated to their performance.
The other great concern is the consistency of values achieved comparing those of a Saybolttype of viscometer to a paddle wheel or rotational spindle viscometers.

Repeatibility
To confirm reproducibility of measurements, at least two replicates were tested for each emulsion type. Good temperature control increases the accuracy and decrease the variability.

Emulsion Type Effect▸ SPMS (anionic) vs. CRS-2 (cationic)
The stiffness of Cationic emulsion is lower at its application temperature, so better workability.
Furthermore, the linear and nonlinear viscoelastic behavior is very different for these two emulsions.

Viscoelastic difference between same family▸ SPMS (anionic) vs. SS-1 (anionic)
Amplitude sweep testing shows distinct differences between the viscoelastic behavior of these emulsions.
SS-1 depicts a cross over point at 0.05% strain level while SPMS is still in linear region.

www.anton-paar.com
Viscoelastic difference between same family▸ CRS-2L (cationic) vs. CRS-2 (cationic)
Similar behavior in linear viscoelastic range (LVE). CRS-2L shows breaking point at 3% strain whereas CRS-2 is exhibiting non-
linear behavior at that point. .

▸ This measuring profile was used for cylindrical (Bob & cup, CC27) measurements
▸ 15 min for temperature step to guarantee to reach thermal equilibrium.
▸ Thixotropy testing is used to simulate spraying, setting and curingemulsions in one test.
▸ Test is conducted in three steps. I. First, the sample was subjected to a low shear rate to mimic normal
storage condition of emulsions.
II. Then, shear rate was increased significantly (spraying and/or pumping process).
III. followed by monitoring the viscosity to investigate the recovery behavior.

Comparison between Anionic Emulsions
SS-1 shows higher initial stiffness than SPMS but after shearing, it has lower viscosity meaning better workability.
SPMS gains back 100% of its initial stiffness meanwhile SS-1 does not show full recovery.
This test is used to evaluate the “run off” of emulsified asphalts after spraying, for example in a chip seal application.

Comparison between Cationic Emulsions
CRS-2 shows significant higher initial stiffness than CRS-2L but after shearing, this difference decreased significantly. CRS-2L does not show stable results during high shear and that is the indication of high
shear susecptibility in the strcuture of this material.

▸ Adhesiveness or tack is the property of materials to form a connection to a substrate when contact pressure is applied for a short time.
▸ A typical tack test consists of three intervals:i. Positioning: The measuring system is in contact with the sampler stops
shortly before touching the sample.ii. For solid samples: Contact pressure with a constant normal force
between FN = 0.01 and 50 Niii. Removal: The measuring system is moved upwards from the
sample with constant or variable speed and the required forces measured.
▸ As analysis criteria usually the maximum force (or minimum force) and the surface area below (or above) the normal force curve are used.
▸ The maximum force is a measure of the cohesive behavior and the surface area in the force-displacement diagram is a measure of the energy required for separation or of the adhesive behavior.

Tackinees for different emulsions
▸ 10min and 25min samples cured at 80C for 30min to determine the difference between their tackiness behaviors.
Considering the start point of Normal Force, the 10min sample gives slightly higher Normal force before failure; however, the 25min sample shows more continuous viscoelastic behavior.

Type of Failure – Cohesive
▸ If there is a steep fall in the curve and a deep spiked force minimum followed by a steep rise in the curve, then the sample is low-deformable with a tendency to form cracks (10min sample).
The surface and therefore the value of the energy required for separation is relatively small.
Cohesive failure means the rupture failure occurs within the material.

Type of Failure – Adhesive
▸ If there is a shallow fall in the curve and a shallower force minimum followed by a smooth rise in the curve, then the sample normally shows more pronounced stringing (25min sample).
Adhesive failure proves that this sample has well cohesive behavior but losing the adhesion to other surfaces.
In the real field application, this may cause moisture damage issue with this material.

Effect of Curing

Effect of Curing Time
The curing progresses at different times ( 15 min vs. 30 min) as indicted by different Normal Force minimum values.
This confirms that this material needs more time to cure fully and gets its full strength.
Influence of curing time on 10min sample

Effect of Curing Time
Influence of curing time on 25min sample
25min sample do not depict significant difference after different curing time. This can be related to the fact that this sample is more solid like and has more
viscosity, so it needs less time to cure.

Total Failure Energy
▸ The surface area in the force-displacement diagram is a measure of the energy required for separation or of the adhesive behavior.
▸ The energy value calculated using the in-built software analysis.
▸ This depicts that 10min sample has kind of brittle behavior and shows a sudden rupture: so the energy value is significantly lower than the 25min sample:
▸ The energy value is significantly lower than the 25min sample
Energy required for separation for both asphalt emulsion samples.
