Abstract
Microstructures of bitumen surfaces (both air-cooled and fractured) were imaged by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and chemically characterised by time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS). For certain air-cooled bitumen surfaces, bee structures were observed by AFM, and chemical explanation by wax crystallisation was confirmed by TOF-SIMS analysis. Unlike the air-cooled surfaces, the fracture surfaces generally did not show clear...
