Description

Technical Field

[0002] Epoxy asphalt paving systems boast excellent mechanical properties and high-temperature stability. Since their successful application on the Nanjing Second Yangtze River Bridge in 2001, achieving excellent results, they have been widely adopted and applied in numerous steel bridge deck paving projects across my country, becoming one of the mainstream paving solutions for steel bridges. While epoxy asphalt paving materials offer advantages such as high strength and excellent corrosion resistance, their primary component, epoxy resin, is a thermosetting polymer that becomes brittle and rigid after chemical crosslinking. This results in poor deformation and toughness, which can easily lead to premature cracking in the mixture. This cracking significantly impacts the integrity of the pavement, leading to a decrease in overall performance and durability. Furthermore, epoxy resin's poor compatibility with asphalt and its tendency to delaminate significantly impact its application in steel bridge deck paving. Toughening and modifying epoxy asphalt and improving the compatibility of the two materials have been significant research challenges and have garnered increasing attention in recent years.
