The rheological study of asphalt binders is of great importance for determining its performance in paving construction. Usually, rheological parameters are obtained by a Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR). The aim of this work is to study the rheological properties of bitumen using an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM). So, a computational tool caled FVLOAD was used for imaging processing. Five kinds of mathematical models were used in order to analise the force curves colected through AFM: the slope analysis, the Young´s model, the adesion model, the FIEL model (Force Integration to Equal Limits) and the work difference model. Three samples were studied: pure bitumen 50/70, bitumem 50/70 doped with 4% of EVA and bitumem 50/70 doped with 4,5% of SBS....
