To master the regeneration performance of reclaimed asphalt adequately, the conventional mechanics properties test, fatigue properties test and fatigue-healing-fatigue properties test were carried out respectively, and the waste matrix asphalt and waste SBS modified asphalt with different aging degree were evaluated by adding 4%~12% regenerant. And the regeneration laws of different evaluation methods and their characteristic indexes were compared and discussed. The results show that when the amount of rejuvenation agent is increased by 2%, each conventional mechanical performance indes of reclaimed matrix asphalt and SBS modified asphalt is restored gradually by linear equation or polynomial function, while the complex shear modulus G* and fatigue life Nf are attenuated by equal range, and the healing index HI is increased by 10%~30% remarkably. Moreover, the improvement effect of rejuvenation agent on waste matrix asphalt and long-term aging asphalt are significantly higher than that of waste SBS modified asphalt and short-term aging asphalt, and the change rule of each behavior result under the stress control mode is clearer than that under the strain control mode. Taking the original asphalt as the performance recovery benchmark, when the fatigue performance test is used for evaluation, the amount of rejuvenation agent required is the most, which is 12% or more. When the conventional mechanics test is used for evaluation, the amount of rejuvenation agent required is the modest, which is 10%~12% or more, and the lower limit value is taken when the high temperature performance indexes are used. When the fatigue-healing-fatigue performance test is used for evaluation, the amount of rejuvenation agent required is the least, which is usually in the range of 8%~12%. It is recommended to apply the fatigue-healing-fatigue test and healing index HI instead of the fatigue test and complex shear modulus G* and fatigue life Nf to judge the recovery of rheological mechanical properties of reclaimed asphalt.
