Investigation on Properties of Cement Bitumen Emulsion Mortars (CBEM)‎ in Consideration of Emulsifier Types

الملخص EN

In order to investigate the influences of emulsifier types on properties of cement bitumen emulsion mortars (CBEM), anionic and cationic emulsifiers were used to prepare CBEM in this work.

Influences of anionic and cationic bitumen emulsions on workability, mechanical properties, and viscoelastic property of CBEM were studied.

The workability of CBEM was evaluated by fluidity and extensibility tests.

The mechanical properties were assessed by compressive strength and flexural strength tests.

XRD was used to analyze the phase before and after bitumen emulsion was added.

The viscoelastic property was studied by a dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA).

The results show that CBEM prepared by cationic bitumen emulsion (CBE) has better workability.

The mechanical properties of CBEM are negatively affected by bitumen emulsion.

The impact on the compressive strength of CBEM prepared by CBE is higher.

Bitumen emulsion can significantly improve the viscoelastic property of CBEM.

With the increase of bitumen emulsion dosage, the loss factor of CBEM increases.

The viscoelastic property at low frequency is better than that at high frequency.

In contrast to CBEM prepared by CBE, CBEM prepared with anionic bitumen emulsion (ABE) possesses better viscoelastic property.
