Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of asphalt mixing, in particular to a composite warm asphalt agent, a preparation method and application thereof, and asphalt and asphalt mixture. BACKGROUND

[0002] Warm mix asphalt (WMA) technology originated in Europe in the 1990s, and its processing temperature is between that of hot mix asphalt (150-180℃) and cold mix asphalt (10-40℃), and its performance is similar to that of hot mix asphalt. The reduced mixing, paving and compaction temperature of warm mix asphalt not only reduces the energy consumption in the production process of asphalt mixture, but also reduces the emission of harmful gases and dust, and at the same time, it has basically the same road performance and construction workability as hot mix asphalt, which meets the strategy of green road construction and low-carbon environmental protection development in China.

[0003] At present, WMA can be divided into three categories according to the mechanism: 1) foaming type, 2) surfactant type, and 3) organic viscosity reduction type. The first foaming type warm agent sprays micro water bubbles into the molten asphalt, forms a lubricating structure on the surface of the asphalt, reduces the viscosity of the asphalt, and thus achieves the effect of warm mixing; the second surfactant type warm agent forms a large number of structural water films inside the asphalt to act as a lubricating structure, reduces the cohesion of the asphalt, and thus enhances the flowability of the asphalt mixture at a lower temperature, achieving the effect of warm mixing. The most typical product is warm agent Zytel. After the addition of the warm agent, the compaction of the asphalt mixture test piece is improved, the void ratio is reduced, the risk of rutting of the mixture is reduced, the modulus of resilience is improved, and at the same time, the adhesion between the asphalt and the aggregate is also improved, and the low-temperature performance is less affected; the third organic viscosity reduction type warm agent can separate the originally closely acting asphalt macromolecules from each other after melting, form a lubricating effect inside the asphalt, reduce the cohesion of the asphalt, and thus enhance the flowability of the asphalt chain segment at high temperature, achieving the purpose of reducing the viscous flow temperature. The most typical product is Sasobit. After the addition of Sasobit, the risk of rutting of the asphalt mixture is reduced, and the modulus of resilience of the asphalt mixture is slightly affected.

[0004] However, each warm agent with different mechanisms has defects, such as the first foaming type warm agent, if the water amount is too large, not only a large amount of water vapor will be produced to cause boiling and equipment corrosion, which brings inconvenience to production, and the remaining water will also change the properties of the asphalt; if the water amount is too small, the foaming effect will be poor and the viscosity reduction effect will be poor; at the same time, the foaming type warm asphalt needs special foaming equipment, which is expensive and has general prospects for promotion; the second surfactant type warm agent can reduce the processing temperature of the asphalt mixture by 30-50℃, but the imported Warm mix agent can reduce the softening point of asphalt, resulting in more rutting disease of asphalt mixture; at the same time, it is expensive and not suitable for large-scale application; the third kind of organic viscosity-reducing warm mix agent significantly reduces the penetration and 10℃ ductility of asphalt, making asphalt brittle and hard, and reducing the maximum bending strain of asphalt mixture; at the same time, most organic viscosity-reducing agents reduce the adhesion between asphalt and aggregate due to their low surface energy characteristics, which easily leads to the reduction of water resistance; in addition, although Sasobit has a lower price than Sasol, the price is still high and not suitable for large-scale use in China.

[0005] It is a difficult problem to be solved urgently to invent a warm mix agent which can realize warm mix, does not affect the high and low temperature performance of asphalt and asphalt mixture, and has low cost, stable performance and simple preparation method. However, there are few studies on this problem at present. The only solution is to physically mix organic viscosity-reducing agent with cationic surfactant and / or other additives, although the obtained products can reduce the mixing temperature of mixture, but due to the poor compatibility between components, the influence on the cohesion of asphalt is still great, resulting in different degrees of reduction of the performance of asphalt and mixture.

[0006] ​CN103204644A discloses a warm mix asphalt modifier, which is composed of the following raw materials in parts by weight: amide substance 60-90 parts, aromatic oil 10-35 parts, asphalt binder 2-5 parts; the preparation method thereof is as follows: 1) heating the amide substance to make it into liquid state; 2) heating the aromatic oil to make it into liquid or fluid state; 3) mixing and stirring the substances obtained in steps 1) and 2) uniformly to obtain a mixture a; 4) adding the asphalt binder to the mixture a obtained in step 3) and stirring uniformly to obtain a mixture b; 5) granulating the mixture b obtained in step 4) after cooling to viscous state, drying at normal temperature, then crushing, passing through a 20-mesh sieve, and taking the undersize to obtain the warm mix asphalt modifier. The amide wax in the present application is one or both of ethylene bis-oleic acid amide and erucic acid amide, which plays a role in high-temperature viscosity reduction and lubrication; the binder is one or several of dimethylaminopropylamine, N-aminoethylpiperazine, diethylenetriamine, triethylenetetramine and tetraethylenepentamine, which is an amine cationic surfactant, and which improves the adhesion of asphalt and stone or eliminates the adverse effect of the amide substance on the adhesion of asphalt and stone. However, the method only physically mixes the binder and the amide wax without chemical reaction, so that segregation is easily caused, the cohesion of asphalt is affected, and then the low-temperature ductility of asphalt and the adhesion to stone are affected; meanwhile, the warm mix agent does not have universality, needs to be adjusted according to different types of asphalt, is not suitable for large-scale promotion; in addition, the binder has a high heating temperature in use, a large amount of toxic steam is generated, the smell is bad, the environment is affected, and the health of the operator is damaged.

[0007] Therefore, it has become a difficulty in the development of warm mix asphalt to develop a warm mix agent which has simple process, can reduce the high-temperature viscosity of asphalt, does not affect or even improves the high-temperature and low-temperature performance, and has sufficient chemical action between components to avoid segregation. SUMMARY

[0009] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present application adopts the following technical scheme:

[0010] A composite warm mix asphalt agent, comprising long-chain hydrocarbon compound, zwitterionic surfactant, non-ionic surfactant and catalyst.

The ionic part of the intermediate can be combined with the non-ionic surfactant by hydrogen bond / dipole interaction, reducing the phase separation between the components of the warm modifier. The long-chain part also interacts with the asphalt components, improving the compatibility of the warm modifier with the asphalt and reducing the occurrence of segregation.

[0016] Preferably, the long-chain hydrocarbon compound accounts for 40%-90% of the composite warm asphalt modifier by weight; further preferably 50%-80%.

[0017] Preferably, the weight percentage of the amphoteric surfactant in the complex asphalt warm agent is 5-30%, and further preferably 10-20%.

[0019] Preferably, the weight percentage of the catalyst in the complex asphalt warm agent is 0.1-1%.

[0020] The complex asphalt warm agent can be added with other additives such as aromatic oil and anti-aging agent in a weight percentage of 0.1-9% according to actual application needs without affecting the performance of the complex asphalt warm agent.

[0021] The application also provides a preparation method of the complex asphalt warm agent.

[0029] The application also provides an asphalt comprising the complex asphalt warm agent.

[0030] Preferably, the asphalt is base asphalt and / or SBS modified asphalt.

[0031] The application also provides a preparation method of the asphalt, comprising mixing the complex asphalt warm agent and the asphalt and stirring uniformly.

[0034] Preferably, the asphalt is base asphalt and / or SBS modified asphalt.

[0035] The application also provides the application of the above-mentioned asphalt and / or asphalt mixture in engineering construction.

[0036] The application has the following advantages:

[0037] 1) The addition polymerization reaction of the zwitterionic surfactant and the unsaturated double bond of the long-chain hydrocarbon compound occurs under heating and catalytic conditions to prepare a new long-chain alkane-zwitterionic surfactant intermediate. The ionic part of the intermediate can be combined with the non-ionic surfactant component by hydrogen bond / dipole interaction to reduce the phase separation between the components of the warm mix additive. The long-chain part also interacts with the asphalt component to improve the compatibility of the warm mix additive with the asphalt and reduce the occurrence of segregation.

[0038] 2) The prepared warm mix additive has the functions of the components and improves the shortcomings of the components: the alkane branches of the prepared warm mix additive reduce the viscosity of the asphalt, improve the flowability of the asphalt at the mixing and compaction temperature, and reduce the surface tension of the asphalt at the mixing temperature, while the ionic chain segment increases the cohesive energy of the asphalt and the wrapping capacity of the asphalt, thereby improving the cohesive force of the asphalt and the adhesion to the mineral aggregate, so that the asphalt can better resist moisture damage.

[0039] 3) The obtained warm mix additive is solid at room temperature, changes into a viscous state when heated, and changes into a liquid state when the temperature exceeds the melting point. Therefore, the molten liquid warm mix additive has good flow performance at the mixing and compaction time, can penetrate into the asphalt to mix uniformly with the asphalt, and reduces the viscosity of the asphalt, thereby reducing the mixing temperature of the asphalt to achieve the effect of warm mixing. After the temperature is reduced, the original crystal structure of the long-chain hydrocarbon branch is destroyed by the ionic chain segment to form a microcrystalline structure, thereby reducing the influence on various properties of the asphalt. At low temperature, the non-ionic surfactant component of the warm mix additive can play the effect of antifreeze to improve the low-temperature ductility of the asphalt.

[0040] 4) The obtained warm mix additive not only reduces the rotary viscosity of the asphalt at 135℃ by >30%, but also reduces the mixing temperature of the asphalt mixture by 20-30℃, and improves the softening point of the asphalt, the low-temperature ductility of the asphalt, the adhesion of the asphalt to the aggregate, and the air void ratio and rutting risk of the mixture. At the same time, the warm mix additive of the application can achieve the purpose of warm mixing of various asphalts such as base asphalt and modified asphalt.

[0041] 5) The prepared warm mix agent is solid at room temperature, used as a single composite warm mix agent, easy to add, transport and store, and conducive to large-scale promotion.

[0042] 6) The obtained warm mix agent is suitable for various asphalts, has universality, and also has the advantages of good stability, high temperature resistance, simple preparation method, low production cost, and simple use method. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
