Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to formulations of, and methods of making and using, recycled reclaimed asphalt pavement.

Claims (35)

1. A formulation of recycled reclaimed asphalt pavement comprising:

a reclaimed asphalt pavement;

an emulsion at less than 1.25% by weight of the reclaimed asphalt pavement; and

water.

2. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the reclaimed asphalt pavement is reprocessed asphalt paving materials.

3. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the reclaimed asphalt pavement and emulsion are combined to form an emulsion-coated reclaimed asphalt pavement.

4. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the emulsion is a polymer-modified cationic slow setting emulsified asphalt with a solvent-free rejuvenator.

5. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the water is 2-2.5% greater than surface saturation of the reclaimed asphalt pavement.

6. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the reclaimed asphalt pavement passes through a 1¼-inch sieve.

7. A method of making recycled reclaimed asphalt pavement comprising:

fractionating a reclaimed asphalt pavement to form a fractionated reclaimed asphalt pavement; and

combining the fractionated reclaimed asphalt pavement, an emulsion at less than 1.25% by weight of the reclaimed asphalt pavement, and water.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the reclaimed asphalt pavement is reprocessed asphalt paving materials.

9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the fractionated reclaimed asphalt pavement passes through a 1¼-inch sieve.

10. The method of claim 7 , wherein the combining of the fractionated reclaimed asphalt pavement and the emulsion forms an emulsion-coated fractionated reclaimed asphalt pavement.

11. The method of claim 7 , wherein the combining is in a pug mill.

12. The method of claim 7 , wherein the emulsion is a polymer-modified cationic slow setting emulsified asphalt with a solvent-free rejuvenator.

13. The method of claim 7 , wherein the water is 2-2.5% greater than surface saturation of the reclaimed asphalt pavement.

14. The method of claim 7 , further comprising storing the recycled reclaimed asphalt pavement in a stockpile for more than six months.

15. A method of using recycled reclaimed asphalt pavement comprising:

applying a recycled reclaimed asphalt pavement comprising a reclaimed asphalt pavement that has been fractionated, an emulsion at less than 1.25% by weight of the reclaimed asphalt pavement, and water to a surface; and

compacting the recycled reclaimed asphalt pavement on the surface.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the reclaimed asphalt pavement is reprocessed asphalt paving materials.

17. The method of claim 15 , wherein the reclaimed asphalt pavement passes through a 1¼-inch sieve.

18. The method of claim 15 , wherein the emulsion is a polymer-modified cationic slow setting emulsified asphalt with a solvent-free rejuvenator.

19. The method of claim 15 , wherein the water is 2-2.5% greater than surface saturation of the reclaimed asphalt pavement.

20. The method of claim 15 , further comprising storing the recycled reclaimed asphalt pavement for more than six months before applying it to a surface.

21. The method of claim 15 , wherein the recycled reclaimed asphalt pavement is applied as a wearing course.

22. The method of claim 15 , wherein the compacting is by a pneumatic roller.

23. The method of claim 15 , wherein the compacting is by a pneumatic roller followed by a finish roller.

24. The method of claim 15 , further comprising adding a fog seal emulsion.

25. A kit comprising:

a reclaimed asphalt pavement;

an emulsion at less than 1.25% by weight of the reclaimed asphalt pavement; and

instructions for combining or using the reclaimed asphalt pavement and emulsion.
