The effect of the interaction between aggregate and asphalt on asphalt mix properties has been a subject of many studies. However, studies using compacted mixtures cannot isolate the pure effects of the asphalt-aggregate interactions, while studies using mixtures of asphalt and fines cannot determine the asphalt rheology at the interface. In this study, direct measurement of asphalt rheology at the interface is investigated using the sliding plate geometry with machined aggregate plates. Significant differences in the behavior of asphalts in contact with aggregate plates have been observed, especially at low shear rates. One asphalt shows substantial aggregate surface-induced structuring, while another asphalt shows essentially none. In addition, the film thickness effect on the rheological properties of asphalt binders and asphalt aggregate mixtures was investigated. The results strongly show that thin films of asphalt on an aggregate surface have substantially changed rheological properties that are asphalt composition–dependent, and that asphalts that are graded alike as bulk materials do not have the same rheological properties as thin films, in this service environment.

ABSTRACTA multi-block associative polyelectrolyte based on poly(methacrylic acid-ra-styrene) [MAA-S] and poly(octadecyl methacrylate) [ODMA] was synthesized through stepwise nitroxide-mediated solution polymerizations. The obtained polymer has a heptablock copolymer structure, alternating MAA-S as hydrophilic blocks (theoretical degree of polymerization [DPT] of 250), and ODMA as hydrophobic blocks (DPT = 15). Rheological properties, in the linear-response regime, of aqueous solutions (polymer content = 1.5 wt.%) were studied as a function of the amount of blocks on the polymer using steady-shear and creep-compliance experiments. Rheological experiments demonstrate that the viscoelastic behavior of the polymer bearing an ODMA block in terminal position greatly differs from that of the polymer with MAA-S block terminations. The former behaves as a newtonian fluid on a wider range of shear rates than the latter, which exhibit a shear-thinning behavior, even at low shear rates, independently of the molecular weight and number of blocks.

ABSTRACTIn this pape effect of nanotube aggrates on the rheological properties of multiwall carbonanntube abd epoxy suspension in epoxy resin.The base epoxy resin was found to be essentially Newtonian, and the progressive incorporation of nanotubes enhanced the low shear rate viscosity of the suspension by nearly two decades. At higher shear rates, the suspension viscosity asymptotically thinned to the viscosity of the matrix alone. The low shear rate viscosity enhancement was correlated with the optical observations of interconnected aggregates of carbon nanotubes, which themselves were induced by the low shear conditions. Intermediate shear rates resulted in a reduction in the size of the aggregates. High shear rates appeared to cause near complete dispersal of the aggregates. From these results it is conjectured that for this suspension, shear thinning is connected with the breaking of the interconnected network between aggregates of nanotubes, and not by nanotube alignment.
