Name one consequence of poor adhesion.
What happens when water interacts with the bitumen-aggregate bond?
What is the main concern if aggregates have high affinity for water?
Think about the interaction between water and bitumen.
True or False: Increasing the mixing temperature can enhance the adhesion of bitumen to aggregates.
Consider how temperature affects material behavior.
Design a procedure for testing the adhesion of aggregates to bitumen in a lab setting. Include steps for the static immersion test and analysis of results.
