Definitions
- This invention relates to a method and apparatus suitable for treating a surface, e.g. that of a road, and to the novel treated surface produced thereby.
- the friction level i.e. skid- resistance of the resulting road surface generally takes the following path: a) initially there is a high level of friction provided by the fine aggregates ("fines") used in the mix. These are worn away by the action of traffic, leaving a thin film of binder covering the aggregate surface b) this binder film masks the microtexture of the aggregate and thus results in a low level of friction. c) once this binder film has worn away, the microtexture of the aggregate is exposed and the friction level rises d) further traffic action polishes the aggregate, i.e. removes the microtexture, thereby causing the friction level to fall until eventually it will reach a stage where its friction level is too low for safety.
- the first is to apply to the road surface a layer of hot bitumen- coated aggregate particles, usually 14 to 19 mm in size, having first spray-coated the road surface with a tack coat of bitumen.
- This solution known as surface dressing, restores both microtexture and macrotexture but the resulting surface will follow the path outlined above with its two attendant disadvantageous stages "b" and "d".
- the adequate retention of the aggregate particles can be a problem; they will often have no mechanical interlock with the underlying surface and will therefore only be held by the binder film.
- the forces applied to these large aggregate particles by the action of traffic will often be sufficient to dislodge them from the surface, resulting in considerable damage to passing traffic usually in the form of chipped paintwork and broken windscreens.
- the second solution to the problem is to combine aggregate particles in an epoxy resin binder and apply this to the entire surface. Again, this improves both microtexture and macrotexture.
- the disadvantage of this system is the high cost involved.
- the present invention aims to overcome these disadvantages by providing a relatively cheap and simple method of improving the microtextural character of aggregate particles in a binder matrix.
- the invention is particularly useful both in the early life of a road surface (problem stage "b)" and when the road surface has been exposed to trafficking for a time (problem stage "d)".
- a composite suitable for use as the surface of a road, runway, pavement, sports surface or the like comprises at least one aggregate in a binder matrix bonded to particles, characterised in that the particles are fine abrasive particles each having a mean diameter of up to 500 microns and said particles are bonded substantially only to those portions of aggregate in the binder matrix which will be directly exposed to wear.
- a method suitable for treating the surface of a road, runway pavement, sports surface or the like comprising at least one aggregate in a binder matrix is characterised in that fine abrasive particles each having a mean diameter of up to 500 microns are applied to the surface so that said particles will be held substantially only by those portions of the surface which will be directly exposed to wear.
- an apparatus for treating the surface of at least one aggregate in a binder matrix characterised in that it comprises means for applying a binder to the surface and in tandem therewith means for applying to the resulting binder-coated surface fine abrasive particles each having a mean diameter of up to 500 microns.
- Aggregate materials suitable for use as the fine abrasive material are those derived from aggregates having a maximum aggregate crushing value as specified in BS 812:1975 of not more than 30.
- Materials derived other than from aggregates, e.g. metals, must be of an equal performance to this e.g. having a hardness of at least 1 and preferably at least 2 on the Moh scale of hardness.
- At least 50% by weight of the fine particles each have a mean diameter in the range 50 to 250 microns.
- suitable materials include crushed naturally occurring gritstones e.g. "Gilfach”, “Craig-yr-Hess” and “Millstone grit", artificial aggregates, e.g. crushed calcined bauxite, slags and emeries.
- an aggregate/binder matrix is to be coated according to the present invention and uncoated aggregate particles ,tre exposed to the surface it will be necessary to apply a fresh coating of the same or a different binder to the surface to which the fine particles will adhere.
- Examples of aggregate/binder matrices the surfaces of which may be treated according to the present invention include road, pavements, runways, sports surfaces and the like.
- the present invention can be used both to restore a worn or old surface and to provide a top-coat for a newly laid surface. This can be done by coating only the uppermost portions with binder as it is only where there is binder that the fine particles will remain.
- the apparatus of the present invention can be used to achieve this result by designing the means for applying the binder so that it is only applied to'the uppermost aggregate surfaces and/or by ensuring that the binder is sufficiently viscous not to flow over the entire surface and has sufficient tack to hold the fine particles applied thereto.
- This preferred method of treatment is intended to improve the microtexture, i.e. roughness, of the individual aggregate . particles.
- the abrasive material can be applied in dry form or in a binder.
- the proportion of binder must be sufficiently great to hold the abrasive particles to each other but not so great as to mask the microtexture of the abrasive particles. If desired further dry abrasive particles may be dusted onto the resulting surface.
- At least 160 g/m 2 of dry fine abrasive material is applied to the underlying substrate.
- the abrasive material is applied as a paste in a binder, e.g. 50/50 by weight, preferably at least 250 g/m2 is applied to give an average film thickness of 0.14 mm.
- the binder to which the fine material adheres may be selected from e.g. bitumen, tar, epoxy-bitumen, bitumen- polymer blend or an epoxy resin.
- the machine 1 which may or may not be self-propelled, includes a binder reservoir (not shown) provided with means for heating the binder to its working temperature, means (not shown) for controlling the flow rate of the binder and, in communication with the binder reservoir, a spreader bar 2 provided with an outlet 2b for applying binder to the uppermost surface of the road 3.
- a spreader bar 2 provided with an outlet 2b for applying binder to the uppermost surface of the road 3.
- dusting means 4 for applying fine abrasive material to the coated road surface.
- the dusting means may simply be (as shown) a tapered outlet 4 for the fine material in the reservoir 5.
- the outlet is usually provided with closure means (not shown) which would come into operation when the machine is not in use and means (not shown) for controlling the flow rate of the material.
- Suction means 7 may be provided to remove the excess fine material from the road surface and to transfer it back into the reservoir.
- the machine 1 In use, the machine 1 is moved over the road surface to be treated, binder is applied to the uppermost portion of the surface by means of the spreader bar 2 and immediately following this, fine material is dusted in excess from the tapered outlet 4 onto the binder-coated road surface.
- the viscosity of the binder is selected so that it is sufficiently viscous not to flow over the entire road surface but has sufficient tack to hold the fine particles.
- suction is applied through the suction means 7 and the excess material is thereby returned to the reservoir 5.
- the product of the method and apparatus described with reference to Figure I is a road surface comprising particles 8 coated with binder 9 and provided with a new coating of binder 10 on the uppermost portions, adhered to which are fine particles 11.
- each sample consists of a single layer of 35 to 50 polished aggregate particles packed as closely as possible and covering an area of 90.6 x 44.5 mm, set in a thin resin mortar so that the aggregate surfaces were exposed.
- the samples were subjected to a polishing action to simulate that which would occur in a road surface and then the residual frictional resistance was measured using a pendulum skid- tester. Samples tested in this way were then used as described in the Examples and the final "road surface” was tested in the same way to gauge the effect of the abrasive material applied.
- a paste consisting of about 50% by weight resin/50% by weight calcined bauxite was applied as a relatively thick coating to the uppermost surfaces of various types of aggregate. Dry bauxite particles were then dusted over the coatings. The uncoated aggregates had PSV's in the range 44 to 79 with a mean of 61. Twelve samples were tested in all. Table 2 summarises the mean skid resistances of the coated samples. The standard deviation of the result was only 3.9, thus indicating that the result was independent of the aggregates used in the substrates.
- Method of coating Thick coating of epoxy resin/bauxite paste followed by dusting with excess bauxite particles.
