Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a method for preparing a polymer composite material for asphalt modification, particularly to a method for preparing a multi-grafted comb copolymer and the resulting product, and also to a method for preparing a modifier that can rapidly melt in asphalt and significantly improve asphalt viscosity and overall road performance, and its application. It belongs to the fields of polymer materials and road engineering technology. Background Technology

[0002] In road engineering, to improve the rutting resistance, water damage resistance, and durability of asphalt pavements, especially drainage asphalt pavements, bridge deck paving, and heavy-duty traffic pavements, high-viscosity modified asphalt must be used as the key binder. Traditional technology mainly relies on adding high doses of elastomers such as SBS (styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer) to the base asphalt and compounding it with other resins, then preparing it under high-temperature conditions through a long-term high-shear and incubation process. However, this traditional route has several prominent drawbacks: First, the production process is complex and inefficient. The melting and dispersion of the modifier depends on a long period (usually exceeding 1 hour) of high-intensity shear and a long-term high-temperature development process, resulting in huge energy consumption, high equipment requirements, and long production cycles. Second, there is a significant contradiction between product storage stability and workability during construction. High polymer content easily leads to phase separation during storage, and further temperature increases are often required to ensure workability during construction, which accelerates asphalt aging and increases harmful emissions. Third, the melting and dispersion rate of the traditional modifier itself has become one of the bottlenecks restricting the acceleration of the entire production process. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the common challenges in the aforementioned industries, this invention aims to provide a method for preparing a multi-grafted comb copolymer and the resulting product. This invention modifies SBS or SIS elastomers through optimized molecular design to obtain a multi-grafted comb copolymer. This copolymer can achieve rapid and uniform melting and dispersion in asphalt at a relatively mild temperature through conventional stirring or short-time shearing, overcoming the problems of low efficiency, high energy consumption, and long production cycle in the current modification of asphalt using elastomers such as SBS.

[0004] The specific technical solution of this invention is as follows: A method for preparing a multi-grafted comb copolymer includes the following steps: mixing a functionalized elastomer, a hydroxyl-terminated compound, or an amino-terminated compound, and performing melt extrusion in a twin-screw extruder to obtain a multi-grafted comb copolymer.

[0005] Furthermore, the elastomer is a linear triblock copolymer, such as SBS (styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer) or SIS (styrene-isoprene-styrene block copolymer). Functionalized elastomers are elastomers with functional groups, obtained by modifying an elastomer with a compound containing functional groups. The functional groups are anhydride groups, carboxylic acid groups, or epoxy groups, and the functional groups modify the elastomer through grafting. The mass ratio of the elastomer to the compound containing the functional groups can be 100:1-5, for example, 100:1, 100:2, 100:3, 100:4, or 100:5.

[0006] Furthermore, the molecular weight of the functionalized elastomer is 80,000 to 150,000.

[0007] Furthermore, the hydroxyl-terminated compound is at least one of low molecular weight polyether polyols, hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB), etc. The molecular weight of the polyether polyol is 200-600, and for example, it can be at least one of polyethylene glycol (PEG), polypropylene glycol (PPG), polycaprolactone polyol (PCL), etc.

[0008] Furthermore, the amino-terminated compound is at least one selected from the following: aliphatic amines containing long alkyl chains, amides containing long alkyl chains, polyether amines, amino-terminated polyisoprene, amino-terminated polybutadiene, etc. The aliphatic amine can be a C12-C18 aliphatic amine, cocoamine, etc., and the amide can be a C12-C18 amide, etc. Preferably, the amino-terminated compound is at least one selected from the following: a C12-C18 aliphatic amine, cocoamine, amino-terminated polyisoprene, amino-terminated polybutadiene, etc.

[0009] Furthermore, when the compound is terminally hydroxyl-terminated, the reaction requires a catalyst, which is one or more of dibutyltin dilaurate, dimethylaminoethyl ether, N-ethylmorpholine, etc. The mass ratio of the functionalized elastomer to the catalyst is 100:0.005-0.02, for example 100:0.005, 100:0.01, 100:0.015, 100:0.02.

[0010] Furthermore, the mass ratio of the functionalized elastomer to the hydroxyl-terminated compound or the amino-terminated compound is 100:1 to 10, for example, 100:1, 100:2, 100:3, 100:4, 100:5, 100:6, 100:7, 100:8, 100:9, 100:10.

[0011] Furthermore, the raw materials react during the extrusion process in a twin-screw extruder to obtain a multi-grafted comb copolymer. The extruder is divided into five temperature zones along the material flow direction: a solid conveying zone, a melting zone, a mixing zone, a devolatilization and venting zone, and a melt conveying zone. The temperatures in each zone are 85-95℃, 100-140℃, 130-160℃, 140-160℃, and 140-155℃, respectively, with the die head temperature at 140-155℃. The screw speed is 160-200 rpm.

[0012] Furthermore, Figure 1 The reaction mechanism diagram is shown for a multi-grafted comb copolymer with SBS as the elastomer, epoxy groups as the functionalized groups, and aliphatic amines as the amino-terminated compounds. The structural schematic diagram of the resulting multi-grafted comb copolymer is shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the main chain is an elastomer with multiple grafted side chains attached to it. The side chains also contain groups such as amine, hydroxyl, and amide.

[0013] The present invention also provides a direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier, which comprises a multi-grafted comb copolymer prepared according to the above preparation method.

[0014] Furthermore, the direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier is composed of the following components in parts by weight: 100 parts of multi-grafted comb copolymer 20-50 parts of oily substances 10-20 parts plasticizer 0.1 to 0.5 parts of coupling agent 5-20 parts of petroleum resin.

[0015] Furthermore, in the aforementioned direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier, the oily substance is one or more of naphthenic oil, aromatic oil, furfural extract oil, reduced-density oil, reduced-density oil, and castor oil. The amount of the oily substance used is 20-50 parts, for example, 20 parts, 25 parts, 30 parts, 35 parts, 40 parts, 45 parts, and 50 parts.

[0016] Furthermore, in the aforementioned direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier, the plasticizer is one or more of dioctyl phthalate (DOP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), environmentally friendly plasticizer T60, epoxidized soybean oil, etc. The amount of plasticizer used is 10-20 parts, for example, 10 parts, 11 parts, 12 parts, 13 parts, 14 parts, 15 parts, 16 parts, 17 parts, 18 parts, 19 parts, or 20 parts.

[0017] Furthermore, in the aforementioned direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier, the coupling agent is one or more silane coupling agents. The silane coupling agent can be at least one of KH550, KH560, or KH570. The amount of coupling agent used is 0.1 to 0.5 parts, for example, 0.1 parts, 0.2 parts, 0.3 parts, 0.4 parts, or 0.5 parts.

[0018] Furthermore, in the aforementioned direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier, the molecular weight of the petroleum resin is 500-3000, and the petroleum resin can be one or more of C5 resin, C9 resin, C5 / C9 copolymer resin, rosin resin, terpene resin, and coumarone resin. The amount of petroleum resin used is 5-20 parts, for example, 5 parts, 6 parts, 7 parts, 8 parts, 9 parts, 10 parts, 11 parts, 12 parts, 13 parts, 14 parts, 15 parts, 16 parts, 17 parts, 18 parts, 19 parts, and 20 parts.

[0019] This invention relates to a direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier with excellent road performance. Its preparation method is simple and can be carried out in two steps: first, a multi-grafted comb copolymer is prepared; then, the multi-grafted comb copolymer, plasticizer, oil, coupling agent, and petroleum resin are pre-blended; and finally, the resulting pre-blended material is melted, extruded, and granulated in a twin-screw extruder to obtain the direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier. Alternatively, it can be formed in one step: the raw materials of the multi-grafted comb copolymer (SBS, functional modifiers, hydroxyl-terminated compounds, amino-terminated compounds, etc.) are first added to a twin-screw extruder for melt reaction to form the multi-grafted comb copolymer; then, a pre-mixed material of plasticizer, oil, coupling agent, and petroleum resin is added, melt-extruded, and granulated to obtain the direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier.

[0020] Furthermore, when the raw material is the multi-grafted comb copolymer prepared above, the multi-grafted comb copolymer plasticizer, oily substances, coupling agent, and petroleum resin are first pre-blended, and then added to a twin-screw extruder. The mixture is extruded and granulated at barrel temperatures of 85-95°C, 100-120°C, 120-140°C, 120-140°C, and 130-140°C, with a die head temperature of 120-140°C, to obtain a direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier. The screw speed is 160-200 rpm.

[0021] Furthermore, when the raw material used is a multi-grafted comb copolymer, the steps are as follows: (S1) The elastomer, functionalized additives and initiator are premixed to obtain mixture 1; (S2) Premix hydroxyl-terminated compounds or amino-terminated compounds, plasticizers, oils, coupling agents, and petroleum resins to obtain mixture 2; (S3) Mixture 1 and mixture 2 are added to a twin-screw extruder for extrusion granulation to obtain a direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier. The temperature zones of the twin-screw extruder are 85-95℃, 100-140℃, 130-160℃, 140-160℃, and 130-155℃, with a die head temperature of 130-155℃. Mixture 1 is added in the first temperature zone, while mixture 2 is added during extrusion in the second temperature zone.

[0022] Furthermore, in step S1, the functionalized auxiliary agent is a compound containing functional groups such as anhydride groups, carboxylic acid groups, and epoxy groups. Functionalized auxiliary agents containing anhydride groups can be maleic anhydride, fumaric anhydride, dodecenyl succinic anhydride, octenyl succinic anhydride, etc. Functionalized auxiliary agents containing carboxylic acid groups can be acrylic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, etc. Functionalized auxiliary agents containing epoxy groups can be GMA (glycidyl methacrylate), allyl glycidyl ether (AGE), vinyl phenyl glycidyl ether, etc.

[0023] Furthermore, in step S1, the initiator is DCP (dicumyl peroxide), benzoyl peroxide (BPO), azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN), etc.

[0024] Furthermore, in step S1, the mass ratio of the elastomer to the functionalized additive is 100:1~5.

[0025] Furthermore, in step S1, the mass ratio of elastomer to initiator is 100:0.05~0.1.

[0026] Furthermore, the present invention also provides a high-viscosity asphalt, comprising a base asphalt and the aforementioned direct-injection, fast-dissolving high-viscosity asphalt modifier. The mass ratio of the base asphalt to the direct-injection, fast-dissolving high-viscosity asphalt modifier is 100:10-30, for example, 100:10, 100:15, 100:20, 100:25, or 100:30.

[0027] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This invention functionalizes the elastomer SBS (styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer) or SIS (styrene-isoprene-styrene block copolymer) by introducing anhydride groups, carboxylic acid groups, epoxy groups, etc., into the SBS or SIS molecular chain. Then, the functionalized SBS or SIS is reacted with hydroxyl-terminated compounds or amine-terminated compounds to obtain a multi-grafted comb-type copolymer. This copolymer has a short-branched branched structure, and the branches contain polar groups such as polyether structures, hydroxyl groups, amide groups, and amine groups, increasing the polarity and free volume of the copolymer. During the copolymer melting process, it acts as a plasticizer, thereby accelerating the melting of the copolymer.

[0028] 2. The multi-grafted comb copolymer prepared in this invention, when combined with other additives, yields a direct-application, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier. The added oily substances and the non-polar and polar components of the plasticizer simultaneously solubilize the main chain and branches of SBS or SIS, achieving a synergistic effect of internal and external plasticization. This allows SBS or SIS to fully swell, transforming the molecular chains from a coiled state to a highly extended state, thereby lowering the melting temperature of the elastomer. During mixing with hot asphalt, it can quickly melt and disperse into the base asphalt under stirring. Furthermore, the polar groups such as amine groups introduced on the side chains of the grafted comb copolymer can interact with the polar groups on the resins or asphaltenes in the asphalt, improving its compatibility. The amine groups can also increase the adhesion between asphalt and aggregates, further improving road performance.

[0029] 3. This invention mixes multi-grafted comb copolymers with oils, plasticizers, coupling agents, and petroleum resins to prepare a direct-injection, fast-dissolving, high-viscosity asphalt modifier. This modifier is a direct-injection modifier with "fast-melting" characteristics. It can achieve rapid and uniform melting and dispersion in asphalt under relatively mild temperature conditions through conventional stirring or short-time shearing, thereby greatly simplifying the production process, reducing energy consumption and equipment dependence, and exhibiting good road performance.

[0030] 4. The modifier of this invention, through optimized molecular design and composite technology, can form a stable and uniform network structure with the asphalt matrix. Modified asphalt obtained using this modifier not only maintains excellent dynamic viscosity at 60℃ but also significantly improves storage stability and is expected to reduce construction temperature, enabling green and environmentally friendly construction. Therefore, developing this fast-melting, high-viscosity asphalt modifier is an effective way to solve key problems such as "high energy consumption, low efficiency, and poor storage stability" in the production and application of high-performance asphalt binders, starting from the material itself, and has significant value in promoting the upgrading of road material technology.
