Correlation between thermal and rheological studies to characterize the behavior of bitumen

Résumé

The objective of this work is a comprehensive thermo-rheological study of pure bitumen. The bitumen is a complex material consisting of asphaltenes dispersed in a maltene matrix. As a consequence, its flow behavior is characterized by the presence of a yield stress, which depends on temperature below 50°C. Applying the Cox-Merz rule, a master curve of viscosity can be obtained over a wide range of shear rates for temperatures above 50°C. It can be accurately modeled by a Carreau-Yasuda law with a yield stress. This specific rheological behavior can be explained by the changes induced by the temperature on the microstructure, evidenced by modulated differential scanning calorimetry measurements.
