| Summary: | Tunnel water burst is among the common severe geological hazards in deep buried tunnel projects in China and throughout the world. Asphalt grouting is an effective method to block seepage channels in macroporous strata under the condition of flowing water, but it has defects such as a high heating temperature, complex high-temperature construction technology, and poor controllability during the grouting process. A type of “water-in-oil” low-thermal asphalt was developed in this study. It can cool and solidify and not be diluted when encountering water, and its construction temperature can be below 80°C. Experimental research on the physical and mechanical properties of the low-thermal asphalt leakage-blocking material was completed, including proportion experiments, fluidity, sensitivity to temperature, one- and two-dimensional indoor diffusion experiments, and impact experiments, which presented its physical and mechanical properties and can provide guidance for the application of the material in site projects. |
