Application of Atomic Force Microscope to Investigate the Surface Micro-Adhesion Properties of Asphalt

The surface energy and bonding coefficient of asphalt are important factors that affect the adhesion performance of asphalt/aggregate. In this study, the micro-bee-like-structure of asphalt and force curves between the microscope-probe and asphalt were measured via atomic force microscopy (AFM). To...
