The effects of different types (red, black and blue color) and content (2% and 4%) of thermochromic powders on aging properties of styrene-butadiene-styrene copolymer (SBS) modified asphalt were investigated. Physical properties of the binders (ductility, penetration, viscosity and softening point) were tested before and after thermal-oxidative and ultraviolet radiation aging. The results showed thermochromic powders improved the deformability and weakened the high-temperature performance of SBS modified asphalt to some extent. Thermochromic powders could obviously improve the anti-aging properties of SBS modified asphalt. In addition, SBS modified asphalt with 2% thermochromic materials showed the best aging resistance under all aging modes.
