Further Thoughts on Fatigue and Moisture Damage, Rutting, and Thermal Cracking
A Bottom-line Opinion?
Performance properties of asphalt at higher temperatures, like rutting, may be more influenced by the compositional properties of the asphaltenes, the asphaltenes coupling to resins, and the maltenes’viscosity

Performance properties of asphalt at higher temperatures, like rutting, may be more influenced by the compositional properties of the asphaltenes, the asphaltenes coupling to resins, and the maltenes’viscosity
whereas
At lower temperatures, wax and neutral-fraction properties (compositional and physical) are more likely to affect pavement failure such as thermal cracking.

Finally, knowledge of synergy between wax, asphaltenes, and resins at midrange temperatures, especially at the surface, may help to explain pavement failure such as fatigue cracking and moisture damage, both of which are compounded by oxidative age-hardening.
