Oxidation is what causes your asphalt to turn from black to grey. As the sun hits your asphalt, it slowly bakes the oils out of the surface. If left unsealed, your oils will continue baking. Causing your pavement to become less flexible, making it more susceptible to failures like cracks.
Typically the first defect to occur, as the seasons change your asphalt expands and contracts causing it to crack. If cracks are left unsealed, water can penetrate the base material, which will lead to major problems down the road.
Raveling occurs when asphalt has been left unsealed. Over a period of time, factors like water, traffic and sunlight can all contribute to increased raveling of the surface. In as little as 1 year, your surface can go from nice and smooth to pitted and rough.
Settling occurs when water seeps into unsealed cracks, causing the base to become saturated and unable to support the weight of vehicle traffic. Thus, as the cracks are driven on, they slowly sink creating smaller cracks.
Alligatoring refers to an area of asphalt with many interconnected cracks. This is typically caused by either water penetration into a large area of base material, or heavy traffic on the same area over a long period of time.
Potholes are caused by base failure from water penetration, freeze/thaw cycles and vehicle weight. When alligatoring, raveling and other failures are not immediately repaired, potholes will begin to form.
