In order to analyze the effect of flame retardant and warm mix asphalt (WMA) additives-Sasobit on the flame-retardant performance and pavement performance of asphalt binder, the limiting oxygen index test, conventional performance test, and Superpave evaluation index tests were performed on asphalt binders in the study. The test results show that flame retardant can effectively improve the flame resistance of asphalt binder, while Sasobit has a certain combustion-supporting effect. Therefore, when warm-mixed flame-retardant technology is applied, the concentration of Sasobit should be controlled appropriately. These two modifiers can significantly enhance the high-temperature performance of asphalt binder, but both of them have a slight negative influence on the low-temperature cracking resistance. Sasobit can substantially reduce the high-temperature viscosity of asphalt binder, which helps to improve the construction workability of asphalt binder, while the flame retardant adversely affects the viscosity reduction effect of Sasobit to a certain extent, but the overall impact is not large.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
