EPOXY-RESIN ADHESIVE FOR SEAM FILLING AND POTHOLE REPAIR IN PAVEMENT MAINTENANCE
Keywords:
pavement, epoxy resin, adhesive, construction
Abstract
Aiming at the problems of asphalt pavement crack sealing and pothole repair materials, an epoxy-resin adhesive with high forming strength, good toughness and room-temperature curing was prepared. In addition to being used as a road filling sealant, the adhesive can also be used for preparing a cold patching mixture for pits. The properties of the epoxy-resin adhesive, the construction performance and road performance of the pouring sealant and cold patch were studied. The results showed that the early strength of the epoxy-resin adhesive was fast and high, the curing volume shrinkage was small, the low-temperature characteristics and tensile properties were good, and the toughness was excellent. As a pouring sealant, the epoxy-resin adhesive had excellent low-temperature bending resistance. The cold patching mixture based on the adhesive exhibited strong cohesiveness, good low-temperature crack resistance, and excellent high-temperature stability and water stability. This adhesive expands the application of epoxy resin in repairing cracks and pits of asphalt pavements, and is of great significance in promoting the development of the asphalt pavement maintenance technology.
