| description | The filler-bitumen interaction mechanism is one of the most essential phases for comprehending the asphalt mixture's performance. However, despite numerous studies, in-depth knowledge of filler-bitumen reciprocity at a microscale level is yet to be ascertained. The goal of this research is to gain a better understanding of the filler-bitumen microscale interaction in terms of the synergy and coaction between the physicochemical and rheological performance of mastics due to filler inclusions. The rheological properties of two sustainable mastics, dolomite powder (DP) and lime kiln dust (LKD), together with a neat PEN 60/70 binder, were analysed based on a temperature sweep at elevated temperature conditions. Meanwhile, frequency sweep and multiple stress creep recovery (MSCR) tests were also conducted at pavement serviceability temperature using the dynamic shear rheometer (DSR). Physicochemical tests using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-rays (EDX) were conducted to analyse the impact of parameters such as particle shape, grain size, texture, and chemical compositions. The DSR test results showcased how the incorporation of fillers in asphalt binder considerably improved the performance of the binder in terms of rutting and fatigue. Likewise, its strain and non-recoverable compliance parameters were substantially reduced at higher filler and binder concentrations. Physical filler attributes of low rigden voids (R.V), high fineness modulus (FM), and high specific surface area (SSA) led to greater interfacial stiffness and elasticity in LKD mastics compared to DP mastics at different loading frequencies and temperature levels. The SEM/EDX results also indicated that the elemental calcium and carbon composition of each filler component, together with its grain morphology, strongly influenced its rheological performance. |
