INTRODUCTION
Only having good aging resistant performance can paving asphaltmeet the requirement of pavement performance Asphalt aging is the majorfactor which influences the service performance (Petersen 1993) Manystudies have indicated that the aging resistance of asphalt is closely relatedwith its chemical composition (Zhang et al 1990 Liu et al 1984) The morefitly intermixing components of asphalt the more stability of colloidalstructure and the better aging resistance performance (Zhang et al 1984 Liuet al 1990)
A large number of researches on aging have been studied and greatdevelopment has been made University of Petroleum China hadpresented a first order kinetic model for the absorption of oxygen ofasphalt on the basis of maximum absorption of oxygen amount Fanyaohua as well as Qi yutai (Qi et al 1993) presented kinetic model of thefamily composition of asphalt succeeding reaction under continuous heatand atmosphere and calculated kinetic model parameters Wright studiedthe aging dynamics by Infrared Spectrum (IR) (Wright 1962) Peterson(Petersen 1993) studied the aging process by the change of 60C dynamicviscosity However the appliance of absorption of oxygen was complicatedand the error of the determination of oxygen quantity was easily causedThe factitious handed factors in process of simple preparation influencedthe accurate determination of IR absorbency The study of the change ofdynamic viscosity was the most direct method but the weight of samplewas strictly required moreover the determination process is too compli-cated With the aging of asphalt the content of asphaltene increasedregularly especially the change of pentane insoluble asphaltene (Liu et al1984) Thus aging process can be accurately estimated by the study ofchange of pentane insoluble during asphalt aging course In this paper theaging dynamics was studied by determination of change of pentaneinsoluble on aging at the same time the relationship models betweenservice properties of asphalt and aging course were set up

The kinetic order n can be calculated by iterative For nfrac14 1 ln(1x)is line with the aging time t and the slope is kinetic constant k
Assuming asphalt aging is in accordance with a first order kineticslaw As was shown in Figure 1 and 2 linear pertinence between ln(1x)and t is good Table 4 showed the minimum related coefficient of all linesis 09982 which showed the aging courses of A and B asphalt conform tofirst order reaction The slope of regression equation is the kinetic constantof corresponding temperature

Thus Eqs (5) and (6) can express the relationship between pentaneasphaltene content and aging time at different temperature The experi-mental values and the numerical values calculated by Eqs (5) and (6) thatwere presented in Table 2 and 3 It can be seen both are very immediatewhich showed that the kinetic models were in accordance with practicalaging course The differential of x to t can be calculated from Eqs (5) and(6) it is obvious that dxdt(B)gtdxdt(A) which show the aging rate of Basphalt was greater than A Table 4 showed B had higher rate kineticconstant and lower activation energy in comparison to A which alsoshowed that A asphalt had better aging resistant performance
The Change of Properties of Asphalt After Aging
The change of properties of A B asphalt before and after aging inRTFO at 163C were presented in Figures 4ndash6
As is shown in Figure 4 after aging with extending of aging timeasphaltrsquos softening point increased gradually which can be approximatelyexpressed in the form

Figure 5 showed penetration decreased with the extending of agingtime initially this change was noteworthy after 10 hours the change trendabated whichwas in accordancewith others experimental results (Yan 1987)The relationship can be approximately expressed in the form
A asphalt Pen frac14 1388thorn 576 exp etht=745THORN eth10THORN
B asphalt Pen frac14 1010thorn 8266 exp etht=861THORN eth11THORN
Comparing this two asphalts aging course we can concluded thatpenetration of B asphalt falling trend is obviously higher than that of A andresistance of A asphalt is better which were consistent with the results ofasphalt aging dynamics experiment Although the volatilization of the smallmolecule substance was the reason of decreasing penetration on aging themass loss of the two kinds of asphalt are lower during the aging course Themain reason of the aging was the intervention of oxygen at hightemperature which changed the composition and structure of the asphaltand caused the change of the properties Author another experiment(Huo 2000) proved after aging both the composition and the structure ofthis two penetration-grade asphalts did change
Ductility decreased with the time extending Figure 6 showed thatductility changed abruptly between 15 and 20 hours and the serviceperformance of asphalt went to the bad sharply Comparing asphalt to acolloid system and resin as dispersant resin is sensitive to thermal agingAuthor another experiment (Huo 2000) proved the resin content decreased

obviously after aging Polar aromatic and naphthene aromatic fractionsdecreased and asphaltene content increased which resulted in colloid systemdestroyed and service performance going to bad
CONCLUSION
In this paper it was found that the aging of the paving asphalt was afirst order reaction the regression model were closely in accordance withpractical aging course Which showed asphalt-aging process could beaccurately estimated by the study of change of pentane insoluble duringaging course
Compared with B asphalt A asphalt studied had lower rate kineticconstant and higher activation energy which showed that A asphalt hadbetter aging resistant performance
On aging asphaltrsquos softening point increased and penetrationdecreased accordingly Relationship between softening point and agingtime at 163C can be approximately expressed in the linearly increasingform Relationship between penetration and aging time at 163C can beapproximately expressed in the first order exponentially falling formDuctility changed abruptly between 15 and 20 hours The composition andstructure of asphalt changed which was the main reason of asphaltpavement performance going bad

Thus Eqs (5) and (6) can express the relationship between pentaneasphaltene content and aging time at different temperature The experi-mental values and the numerical values calculated by Eqs (5) and (6) thatwere presented in Table 2 and 3 It can be seen both are very immediatewhich showed that the kinetic models were in accordance with practicalaging course The differential of x to t can be calculated from Eqs (5) and(6) it is obvious that dxdt(B)gtdxdt(A) which show the aging rate of Basphalt was greater than A Table 4 showed B had higher rate kineticconstant and lower activation energy in comparison to A which alsoshowed that A asphalt had better aging resistant performance

Figure 5 showed penetration decreased with the extending of agingtime initially this change was noteworthy after 10 hours the change trendabated whichwas in accordancewith others experimental results (Yan 1987)The relationship can be approximately expressed in the form

INTRODUCTION
Only having good aging resistant performance can paving asphaltmeet the requirement of pavement performance Asphalt aging is the majorfactor which influences the service performance (Petersen 1993) Manystudies have indicated that the aging resistance of asphalt is closely relatedwith its chemical composition (Zhang et al 1990 Liu et al 1984) The morefitly intermixing components of asphalt the more stability of colloidalstructure and the better aging resistance performance (Zhang et al 1984 Liuet al 1990)
A large number of researches on aging have been studied and greatdevelopment has been made University of Petroleum China hadpresented a first order kinetic model for the absorption of oxygen ofasphalt on the basis of maximum absorption of oxygen amount Fanyaohua as well as Qi yutai (Qi et al 1993) presented kinetic model of thefamily composition of asphalt succeeding reaction under continuous heatand atmosphere and calculated kinetic model parameters Wright studiedthe aging dynamics by Infrared Spectrum (IR) (Wright 1962) Peterson(Petersen 1993) studied the aging process by the change of 60C dynamicviscosity However the appliance of absorption of oxygen was complicatedand the error of the determination of oxygen quantity was easily causedThe factitious handed factors in process of simple preparation influencedthe accurate determination of IR absorbency The study of the change ofdynamic viscosity was the most direct method but the weight of samplewas strictly required moreover the determination process is too compli-cated With the aging of asphalt the content of asphaltene increasedregularly especially the change of pentane insoluble asphaltene (Liu et al1984) Thus aging process can be accurately estimated by the study ofchange of pentane insoluble during asphalt aging course In this paper theaging dynamics was studied by determination of change of pentaneinsoluble on aging at the same time the relationship models betweenservice properties of asphalt and aging course were set up

Thus Eqs (5) and (6) can express the relationship between pentaneasphaltene content and aging time at different temperature The experi-mental values and the numerical values calculated by Eqs (5) and (6) thatwere presented in Table 2 and 3 It can be seen both are very immediatewhich showed that the kinetic models were in accordance with practicalaging course The differential of x to t can be calculated from Eqs (5) and(6) it is obvious that dxdt(B)gtdxdt(A) which show the aging rate of Basphalt was greater than A Table 4 showed B had higher rate kineticconstant and lower activation energy in comparison to A which alsoshowed that A asphalt had better aging resistant performance
The Change of Properties of Asphalt After Aging
The change of properties of A B asphalt before and after aging inRTFO at 163C were presented in Figures 4ndash6
As is shown in Figure 4 after aging with extending of aging timeasphaltrsquos softening point increased gradually which can be approximatelyexpressed in the form

Figure 5 showed penetration decreased with the extending of agingtime initially this change was noteworthy after 10 hours the change trendabated whichwas in accordancewith others experimental results (Yan 1987)The relationship can be approximately expressed in the form

B asphalt Pen frac14 1010thorn 8266 exp etht=861THORN eth11THORN
Comparing this two asphalts aging course we can concluded thatpenetration of B asphalt falling trend is obviously higher than that of A andresistance of A asphalt is better which were consistent with the results ofasphalt aging dynamics experiment Although the volatilization of the smallmolecule substance was the reason of decreasing penetration on aging themass loss of the two kinds of asphalt are lower during the aging course Themain reason of the aging was the intervention of oxygen at hightemperature which changed the composition and structure of the asphaltand caused the change of the properties Author another experiment(Huo 2000) proved after aging both the composition and the structure ofthis two penetration-grade asphalts did change
Ductility decreased with the time extending Figure 6 showed thatductility changed abruptly between 15 and 20 hours and the serviceperformance of asphalt went to the bad sharply Comparing asphalt to acolloid system and resin as dispersant resin is sensitive to thermal agingAuthor another experiment (Huo 2000) proved the resin content decreased

Where x is the asphaltene percent content k the kinetic constant forpentane asphaltene formation n the kinetic order for asphalt formation andt the reaction time
The kinetic order n can be calculated by iterative For nfrac14 1 ln(1x)is line with the aging time t and the slope is kinetic constant k
Assuming asphalt aging is in accordance with a first order kineticslaw As was shown in Figure 1 and 2 linear pertinence between ln(1x)and t is good Table 4 showed the minimum related coefficient of all linesis 09982 which showed the aging courses of A and B asphalt conform tofirst order reaction The slope of regression equation is the kinetic constantof corresponding temperature
Arrhenius equation can be expressed in the form

Thus Eqs (5) and (6) can express the relationship between pentaneasphaltene content and aging time at different temperature The experi-mental values and the numerical values calculated by Eqs (5) and (6) thatwere presented in Table 2 and 3 It can be seen both are very immediatewhich showed that the kinetic models were in accordance with practicalaging course The differential of x to t can be calculated from Eqs (5) and(6) it is obvious that dxdt(B)gtdxdt(A) which show the aging rate of Basphalt was greater than A Table 4 showed B had higher rate kineticconstant and lower activation energy in comparison to A which alsoshowed that A asphalt had better aging resistant performance
The Change of Properties of Asphalt After Aging
The change of properties of A B asphalt before and after aging inRTFO at 163C were presented in Figures 4ndash6
As is shown in Figure 4 after aging with extending of aging timeasphaltrsquos softening point increased gradually which can be approximatelyexpressed in the form

Figure 5 showed penetration decreased with the extending of agingtime initially this change was noteworthy after 10 hours the change trendabated whichwas in accordancewith others experimental results (Yan 1987)The relationship can be approximately expressed in the form

Comparing this two asphalts aging course we can concluded thatpenetration of B asphalt falling trend is obviously higher than that of A andresistance of A asphalt is better which were consistent with the results ofasphalt aging dynamics experiment Although the volatilization of the smallmolecule substance was the reason of decreasing penetration on aging themass loss of the two kinds of asphalt are lower during the aging course Themain reason of the aging was the intervention of oxygen at hightemperature which changed the composition and structure of the asphaltand caused the change of the properties Author another experiment(Huo 2000) proved after aging both the composition and the structure ofthis two penetration-grade asphalts did change
Ductility decreased with the time extending Figure 6 showed thatductility changed abruptly between 15 and 20 hours and the serviceperformance of asphalt went to the bad sharply Comparing asphalt to acolloid system and resin as dispersant resin is sensitive to thermal agingAuthor another experiment (Huo 2000) proved the resin content decreased

CONCLUSION
In this paper it was found that the aging of the paving asphalt was afirst order reaction the regression model were closely in accordance withpractical aging course Which showed asphalt-aging process could beaccurately estimated by the study of change of pentane insoluble duringaging course
Compared with B asphalt A asphalt studied had lower rate kineticconstant and higher activation energy which showed that A asphalt hadbetter aging resistant performance

Figure 5 showed penetration decreased with the extending of agingtime initially this change was noteworthy after 10 hours the change trendabated whichwas in accordancewith others experimental results (Yan 1987)The relationship can be approximately expressed in the form
A asphalt Pen frac14 1388thorn 576 exp etht=745THORN eth10THORN
B asphalt Pen frac14 1010thorn 8266 exp etht=861THORN eth11THORN
Comparing this two asphalts aging course we can concluded thatpenetration of B asphalt falling trend is obviously higher than that of A andresistance of A asphalt is better which were consistent with the results ofasphalt aging dynamics experiment Although the volatilization of the smallmolecule substance was the reason of decreasing penetration on aging themass loss of the two kinds of asphalt are lower during the aging course Themain reason of the aging was the intervention of oxygen at hightemperature which changed the composition and structure of the asphaltand caused the change of the properties Author another experiment(Huo 2000) proved after aging both the composition and the structure ofthis two penetration-grade asphalts did change
Ductility decreased with the time extending Figure 6 showed thatductility changed abruptly between 15 and 20 hours and the serviceperformance of asphalt went to the bad sharply Comparing asphalt to acolloid system and resin as dispersant resin is sensitive to thermal agingAuthor another experiment (Huo 2000) proved the resin content decreased
