Abstract:Microcapsule technology actively repairs microcracks in asphalt pavement, extending its service life. This study develops multi-healing core-shell microcapsules consisting of a core (polyurea formaldehyde sub-capsules containing sunflower oil) and a shell (calcium alginate capsule) that provides protection and enables delayed release. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results show the microcapsules have evenly distributed chambers with an average diameter of approximately 2 mm. The core content and encapsulation efficiency are measured at 65.38 % and 78.52 %, respectively, while the shell exhibits an average hardness of 0.27 GPa. Thermogravimetric analysis indicates the microcapsules can withstand high temperatures up to 230℃. Through multiple self-healing tests, the study demonstrates that the core-shell microcapsules provide sustainable and repeated repair effects on asphalt, with an optimal dosage of 1.5 wt% in asphalt mortar. The self-healing effect improves with increasing dosage, healing time, and healing temperature. The microcapsules continuously release rejuvenator, repairing cracks and enhancing asphalt performance.
