Investigating the ageing process of polymer modified bitumen using a modified Thin-Film Oven Test in the aspect of recycling purpose within Weave-UNISONO 2021 project, NCN project No 2021/03/Y/ST8/00079

Summary: One polymer-modified bitumen PMB 25/55-60 was tested in two stages: original and after the modified Thin-Film Oven Test (TFOT). The time ranges from 1h-5h, and temperatures from 120°C-200°C were used. The Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy and Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) with parallel plates were conducted. Test temperatures range from 30–70°C for a 25 mm diameter plate and 0–30°C for an 8 mm plate with 10°C intervals and angular frequency range of 0.1, 1.0, and 10 Hz. The dataset includes: Basic characteristics of bituminous binder (R&B Temperatur, Penetration), CSV raw data: 01 - SP Pen.csv Dynamic shear rheometer (Temperatures 0-70 °C, Angular Frequency 0.1Hz, 1.0Hz, 10 Hz, Complex Shear Modulus, Phase Angle): 02.1 - DSR Rheology_Unaged.csv 02.2 - DSR Rheology_2h_140C.csv 02.3 - DSR Rheology_2h_200C.csv 02.4 - DSR Rheology_5h_140C.csv 02.5 - DSR Rheology_5h_200C.csv FTIR - Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy OPUS Spectroscopy files.zip --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- to open the OPUS files, please go to the © Bruker webpage and download the free OPUS Viewer. https://www.bruker.com/en/products-and-solutions/infrared-and-raman/opus-spectroscopy-software/downloads.html --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
