Resumen
Salt storage asphalt pavement has been considered as a functional pavement that could effectively and actively melt snow on the road. Based on the previous studies, the macro melting snow and ice mechanism on the salt storage road is studied, high performance salt storage materials have been developed, as well as to analyze pavement and anti-freezing performance of salt storage asphalt mixture. Although some studies have evaluated salt storage asphalt mixtures and salt storage materials, there still remains many issues related to the slow-release effect of salt storage materials and road performance. Therefore, the article tries to review the key contents: mechanism for ice-snow melting of salt storage asphalt pavement, salt-storage materials design, salt-storage asphalt mixture-mix design. Additionally, key points concerning the road and anti-freezing performance of salt storage asphalt pavement were assessed. Finally, a series of important proposes for further investigations in this field have been presented.
