| Zusammenfassung: | Aging resistant asphalt compositions and related methods of preparing and applying the same are provided. The aging resistant asphalt compositions can include a base asphalt with specified properties combined with an aging resistance additive, to produce modified asphalt compositions having a colloidal index within the range of about 3.7 to about 8.0, a saturates content of less than about 10% by weight, and measurable age-resistant properties. The aging resistant asphalt compositions are useable in a variety of asphalt paving and non-paving applications. The aging resistant asphalt compositions provide improved resistance to both moderate and low failure temperatures of conventional paving asphalts throughout its service life by reducing age-related failures. |
