Influence of storage conditions on the stability of asphalt emulsion

摘要

The influence of storage temperature, environment, and containers on the stability and particle size distribution of asphalt emulsion is studied. The results indicate that the stability of asphalt emulsion decreases with the storage time. At the same storage time, the higher the storage temperature, the worse the stability of asphalt emulsion, and the stability of asphalt emulsion stored in the laboratory is better than that stored in the car. The stability of asphalt emulsion stored in an aluminum container is same as that stored in a plastic container, but the stability of asphalt emulsion stored in a iron container is worse. Among the three factors, storage temperature, environment, and container, the maximum influence is of iron container, and the minimum influence is of storage temperature of 40 degrees C.
