Asphalt Rejuvenators
A Contractors perspective
Maltene Based Asphalt Rejuvenator
WHAT IS AN ASPHALT REJUVENATOR?
Asphalt consists of two main fractions: "asphaltenes"which are the hard brittle component, insoluble and not affected by oxidation and the highly reactive sub-fractions: "maltenes" These maltenes are oily and resinous in appearance
The Age Of A Pavement Is Not The Primary Factor
In Choosing Candidates For A Rejuvenator Application
The Primary Importance Is The Condition
Of The Pavement
"Right Treatment Right Pavement Right Time"
Which component changed?
Asphalt Cement
Stable component:
Asphaltenes
Reactive components:
Saturated hydrocarbons (paraffins)
First acidaffins Second acidaffins Polar compounds
Chemical Composition of Asphalt Cement
Asphalt cement consists of five component groups:
Asphaltenes(A), the bodying agent gives asphalt its black color, is hard and brittle like pencil lead.
Maltenes, which provide the cohesive and flexible qualities of the asphalt cement. They are categorized as:
?Polar compounds or Nitrogen bases (N)- components of highly reactive resins, which act as a peptizer for the asphaltenes. ?First acidiffins (A1)- components of resinous hydrocarbons which function as a solvent for the peptized asphaltenes. ?Second acidiffins (A2)- components of slightly unsaturated hydrocarbons that also serve as a solvent for the peptized asphaltenes. ? Paraffins (P) ? saturated hydrocarbons, which function as a gelling agent for the asphalt components
