The reaction process of epoxy resin was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The viscosity was investigated by Brinell viscometer when epoxy resin was mixed with asphalt. The glass transition temperature (Tg), homogeneity, thermal stability and viscoelasticity of epoxy asphalt were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), metallographic microscope, thermogravimetric (TG) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The results showed that the viscosity of epoxy resin modified asphalt reached 1000 mPa·s for more than 180 minutes at 180 ℃, while the best construction process is mixing at 180 ℃ for 2 hours and curing at 60 ℃ for 4 days. The particle size of asphalt is less than 50 μm. In addition, the mechanical properties of the materials are uniform within the specified pavement thickness.展开更多

The results indicate that sulfate attack leads to both decalcification and dealumination for C-A-S-H gels, and the amount of corrosion products（gypsum and ettringite） decreased gradually with decreasing Ca/Si ratios of C-A-S-H. Sulfate ions can also promote the polymerization degree of C-A-S-H gels, improving its resistance to sulfate attack. Moreover, the 4-coordination aluminum（Al[4]） in C-A-S-H, 5-coordination aluminum（Al[5]）, 6-ccordination aluminum（Al[6]） in TAH（third aluminum hydrate） and Al[6] in monosulfate or C-A-H（calcium aluminate hydrate） can be transformed into Al[6] in ettringite by sulfate attack. Furthermore, through thermodynamic calculation, the decrease of Ca/Si ratios and increase of Al/Si ratios can improve the thermodynamic stability of C-A-S-H gels under sulfate attack, which agrees well with the experiment results.展开更多
