Abstract

The curing of epoxy asphalt mixture depends on the chemical reaction of epoxy resin and the curing agent. The curing level of epoxy asphalt mixture needs to be predicted in order to decide traffic opening time and to establish further construction plans. In this study, chemical analysis of the prediction model was executed to expand the applicability of the previous prediction model. Consequently, the curing level prediction model of epoxy asphalt concrete mixture was proposed using the concentration ratio and the acid value ratio. According to the results of outdoor curing experiments, the final prediction model showed that the correlation coefficient is greater than 0.971. Precise prediction results of different composition epoxy asphalt were obtained by reflecting the chemical composition ratios in the curing level prediction model.

에폭시 아스팔트 혼합물은 에폭시 수지와 경화제의 화학반응이 진행되어 양생시간을 거쳐 성능 발현이 이루어진다. 에폭시 아스팔트의 양생수준은 후속공정의 진행과 교통개방 및 공정계획의 수립에 절대적인 영향을 미치므로 정확한 예측모델의 개발이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 기존 예측식에 사용되는 인자들의 화학적 의미 분석을 통하여 에폭시 수지의 농도와 경화특성을 반영하여 기존식보다 확대된 적용 범위를 갖는 양생수준 예측식을 제시하였다. 실외양생 실험과 비교 결과 상관계수가 0.971 이상으로 나타나 조성이 다른 에폭시 아스팔트 혼합물의 온도와 시간에 따른 양생수준을 예측할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.
