Abstract

The frictional performance of aggregates is crucial in the skid resistance of asphalt mixtures. Conventional methods for quantifying aggregate frictional resistance by the process of sample preparation and polishing are time-consuming. This study investigates the potential of aggregate mineralogical (e.g., average hardness value (AHV) and contrast of hardness (COH)) and morphological parameters (e.g., angularity and texture) in estimating aggregate frictional performance. A total of twenty-eight aggregate sources from quarries in different locations within Texas were sampled and subjected to mineralogical and morphological evaluation using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and aggregate image measurement system (AIMS), respectively. The frictional performance was evaluated after polishing using a three-wheel polishing device with a dynamic friction tester device. The contributions of mineralogical and morphological parameters on aggregate frictional performance were assessed based on pairwise correlation and multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that aggregate frictional performance is controlled by AHV and COH and, to a lesser extent, by the angularity and texture of aggregates. The study suggests that powder XRD can be used as a faster alternative to conventional test methods for assessing aggregate frictional resistance.

骨料矿物学和形态参数对骨料摩擦性能的贡献

集料的摩擦性能对沥青混合料的抗滑性至关重要。通过样品制备和抛光过程来量化集料摩擦阻力的传统方法非常耗时。本研究调查了集料矿物学参数（如平均硬度值 (AHV) 和硬度对比度 (COH)）和形态参数（如棱角度和纹理）在估算集料摩擦性能方面的潜力。我们从得克萨斯州不同地点的采石场共采集了 28 个骨料样本，并分别使用粉末 X 射线衍射 (XRD) 和骨料图像测量系统 (AIMS) 对其进行了矿物学和形态学评估。使用带有动态摩擦试验装置的三轮抛光设备对抛光后的摩擦性能进行了评估。根据成对相关分析和多元线性回归分析，评估了矿物学和形态学参数对骨料摩擦性能的贡献。结果表明，骨料摩擦性能受 AHV 和 COH 控制，其次受骨料的棱角和质地控制。该研究表明，粉末 XRD 可作为传统测试方法的一种更快的替代方法，用于评估集料的摩擦阻力。

期刊介绍： Construction and Building Materials offers an international platform for sharing innovative and original research and development in the realm of construction and building materials, along with their practical applications in new projects and repair practices. The journal publishes a diverse array of pioneering research and application papers, detailing laboratory investigations and, to a limited extent, numerical analyses or reports on full-scale projects. Multi-part papers are discouraged. Additionally, Construction and Building Materials features comprehensive case studies and insightful review articles that contribute to new insights in the field. Our focus is on papers related to construction materials, excluding those on structural engineering, geotechnics, and unbound highway layers. Covered materials and technologies encompass cement, concrete reinforcement, bricks and mortars, additives, corrosion technology, ceramics, timber, steel, polymers, glass fibers, recycled materials, bamboo, rammed earth, non-conventional building materials, bituminous materials, and applications in railway materials.
