Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of asphalt modification, specifically relating to a modified emulsified asphalt and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Emulsified asphalt is widely used in road construction and maintenance due to its advantages of normal-temperature construction and environmental safety. Based on this, modified emulsified asphalt, compared to ordinary emulsified asphalt, is seeing increasing demand due to its targeted improvements in high and low temperature performance and adhesion. Modified emulsified asphalt mainly includes SBR modified emulsified asphalt, rubber powder modified emulsified asphalt, and SBS modified emulsified asphalt, among others. However, each of these modified emulsified asphalts has its own shortcomings. SBR modified emulsified asphalt does not significantly improve high-temperature performance; rubber powder modified emulsified asphalt has strict requirements for the quality of the rubber powder and is prone to segregation, resulting in insufficient storage stability; SBS modified emulsified asphalt, due to its excellent high and low temperature performance, waterproof performance, rutting resistance, and ease of construction, is increasingly used in tack coats, bridge deck waterproofing tack coats, micro-surfacing, cold recycling, and cold-mix paving. However, SBS modified emulsified asphalt still faces some difficult problems, mainly high emulsification difficulty and poor storage stability. These factors restrict the large-scale promotion and application of SBS modified emulsified asphalt.

[0003] The difficulty in emulsifying SBS-modified emulsified asphalt stems primarily from the increased viscosity of the base asphalt after SBS modification compared to ordinary emulsified asphalt. This necessitates raising the temperature of the asphalt phase during emulsification, potentially resulting in the temperature of the emulsified asphalt after passing through a colloid mill exceeding the boiling point of water. Consequently, pressure must be applied at the colloid mill outlet to prevent aqueous evaporation from negatively impacting emulsification. Furthermore, the SBS particles within the asphalt must possess a sufficiently small particle size and be uniformly dispersed to reduce demulsification and improve storage stability. Currently, the common method involves preparing SBS into a latex before modifying and emulsifying the asphalt. While this method requires less sophisticated equipment, the process of preparing the SBS latex is complex and its quality is inconsistent.

[0004] To overcome the above problems, chemical grafting modification of polymers or base asphalt can be considered. This involves crosslinking and / or chemically bonding compounds with asphalt containing active functional groups, giving the asphalt surface active functional groups to facilitate subsequent SBS modification and emulsification. Currently, two methods for chemical grafting asphalt have been reported: one utilizes the -NH2 and -OH groups in the asphalt for grafting; the other utilizes the conjugated diene structure in the asphalt for DA addition to further graft. The latter generally requires a catalyst and a high-temperature, high-pressure environment.

[0005] Besides reactive polymers being used for the chemical grafting of asphalt, small molecules with active groups are also used for asphalt modification, such as dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, thiourea dioxide, and dodecenyl succinic anhydride (DSA). Because asphaltene contains heteroatomic groups, these groups can form strongly bonded ion pairs with dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, effectively improving the rheological and thermodynamic properties of asphalt.

[0006] Grafting asphalt with organic compounds is an effective method to improve its properties. Currently, there are two common methods for crosslinking / dispersion modification of asphalt: polymer modification, which involves mechanically dispersing a polymer modifier in molten asphalt without any chemical reaction; and bio-oil modification, which utilizes bio-oil due to its low viscosity and good compatibility with asphalt. The former requires the most vigorous dispersion conditions to achieve a homogeneous mixture, and the selected polymer should have sufficient compatibility with the asphalt binder to minimize phase separation problems during storage, transportation, application, and use. The latter method requires modification before adding most types of bio-oil to asphalt, as most types cannot be directly used as asphalt modifiers. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the above issues, this invention provides a modified emulsified asphalt and its preparation method. This invention solves the problems of difficulty in emulsifying and unstable storage of polymer-modified asphalt.

[0008] The first aspect of this invention provides a modified emulsified asphalt, comprising the following components by weight:

[0009]

[0010] The modified asphalt, by weight, comprises the following components:

[0011]

[0012] The cationic matrix asphalt is obtained by chemical grafting a modifier with the matrix asphalt.

[0013] Furthermore, the modifier includes modifier I and / or modifier II, and the general formulas of modifier I and modifier II are as follows:

[0014]

[0015] R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 represent organic groups.

[0016] Furthermore, each of R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 is independently selected from alkyl groups, preferably from C1 to C6. 10 Alkyl groups, more preferably selected from C1 to C5 alkyl groups.

[0017] Furthermore, based on the weight of the cationized matrix asphalt, the content of the matrix asphalt is 90wt% to 99.9wt%, and the content of the modifier is 0.1wt% to 10wt%.

[0018] Furthermore, the base asphalt is selected from one or more of vacuum residue, oxidized asphalt, and solvent-desorbed asphalt. The softening point of the base asphalt is 40–80°C.

[0019] Furthermore, the polymer is SBS and / or SIS, preferably SBS.

[0020] Furthermore, the plasticizer is one or a mixture of several of the following: extracted oil, naphthenic oil, and bio-oil.

[0021] Furthermore, the crosslinking agent is a sulfur-containing organic or inorganic compound, preferably one or more of elemental sulfur and thiamethoxam derivative compounds. The thiamethoxam derivative compounds are preferably one or more of tetramethylthiamethoxam monosulfide, tetramethylthiamethoxam disulfide, etc.

[0022] Furthermore, the emulsifier is a long-chain fatty amine cationic emulsifier, such as one or more of tallow propylene diamine, octadecyl diallyl triamine, and octadecyl propene triamine.

[0023] Furthermore, the stabilizer is one or more of calcium chloride, sodium chloride, and ammonium chloride.

[0024] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing modified emulsified asphalt, comprising:

[0025] (1) Preparation of modified asphalt;

[0026] (2) Mix the emulsifier, stabilizer and water, and adjust the pH value to obtain soap solution;

[0027] (3) The modified asphalt prepared in step (1) is mixed and emulsified with the soap solution obtained in step (2) to obtain modified emulsified asphalt.

[0028] Further, the method for preparing modified asphalt in step (1) includes:

[0029] (a) Preparation of the modifier;

[0030] (b) The base asphalt is heated and melted, mixed with the modifier, and reacted under stirring. After the reaction is completed, a halohydrocarbon is added to continue the reaction to obtain cationic base asphalt.

[0031] (c) The polymer is mixed with a plasticizer and then extruded.

[0032] (d) Mix the material formed in step (c) with the cationic matrix asphalt, add a crosslinking agent, and stir to obtain modified asphalt.

[0033] Further, in step (a), the method for preparing the modifier includes: adding a primary amine compound with a tertiary amine structure and carbon disulfide to an alkaline solution for reaction; then adding a desulfurizing agent to carry out a desulfurization reaction, and obtaining the modifier after post-treatment.

[0034] Furthermore, the primary amine compounds having a tertiary amine structure include, but are not limited to, one or more of N,N-dimethylethylenediamine, 3-(dibutylamino)propylamine, and N,N-bis(3-aminopropyl)methylamine.

[0035] Furthermore, the alkaline solution is an organic alkaline solution and / or an inorganic alkaline solution, including but not limited to one or more of triethylamine solution and K2CO3 solution.

[0036] Furthermore, the mass concentration of the alkaline solution is 5 wt% to 35 wt%. The mass-to-volume ratio of the primary ammonium compound to the alkaline solution is 1:5 to 1:45 g / mL.

[0037] Furthermore, the primary amine compound reacts with carbon disulfide at room temperature, such as 20–30°C, for 1–6 h, wherein the molar ratio of the primary amine compound to carbon disulfide is 1:1 to 1:10.

[0038] Furthermore, the desulfurizing agent is one or more of di-tert-butyl dicarbonate, sodium persulfate, and copper sulfate pentahydrate. The molar ratio of primary amine compound to desulfurizing agent is 1:1 to 1:4.

[0039] Furthermore, the temperature of the desulfurization reaction is 4℃~25℃, and the reaction time is 0.5~2h.

[0040] Furthermore, after the desulfurization reaction is completed, a modifier is obtained through post-processing. The post-processing includes washing, extraction, drying, and rotary evaporation.

[0041] The washing process can be performed using a saturated sodium chloride solution or water to remove impurities. The washing can be carried out in centrifuge tubes, with centrifugation for 5–30 minutes followed by washing. The extraction is preferably performed using ethyl acetate 2–4 times. The drying is preferably performed using anhydrous sodium sulfate. The rotary evaporation yields the modifier product.

[0042] Further, the base asphalt in step (b) is heated and melted at a temperature of 100–150°C. When the modifier is mixed with the molten base asphalt, the reaction is carried out at a temperature of 90–120°C with stirring, and the reaction time is 1–4 hours.

[0043] Further, in step (b), the haloalkane is benzyl chloride and / or hexadecane bromo.

[0044] Furthermore, the molar ratio of the modifier to the haloalkane is 1:1 to 1:5.

[0045] Furthermore, in step (b), the conditions for continuing the reaction are: reacting at 80–140°C for 1–4 hours, preferably at 100–120°C for 2–3 hours.

[0046] Furthermore, in step (c), the extrusion molding can be performed using methods conventional in the art. For example, at 150–180°C, a polymer and a plasticizer are added to the two feed ports of an extruder, respectively, followed by high-temperature extrusion, cooling, and then cutting into small particles.

[0047] Further, in step (d), after adding the crosslinking agent, the stirring conditions are: stirring at 140-180℃ for 1-5 hours to obtain modified asphalt.

[0048] Furthermore, in step (2), when preparing the soap solution, it is preferable to control the system temperature at 70–90°C. The pH value is adjusted to 2–4, and dilute hydrochloric acid is generally used to adjust the pH.

[0049] A third aspect of the present invention provides an application of modified emulsified asphalt in road construction.

[0050] Furthermore, the application specifically involves mixing the modified emulsified asphalt with aggregate for use in road construction.

[0051] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0052] (1) The modified emulsified asphalt of the present invention is a polymer-modified emulsified asphalt that can meet the requirements of complex traffic roads.

[0053] (2) The modified emulsified asphalt of the present invention, wherein the cationic matrix asphalt is obtained by chemical grafting reaction between the modifier and the matrix asphalt. A specific modifier is used, which contains isothiocyanate groups and also contains tertiary amine structures. The modifier can achieve cross-linking / dispersion between components in the asphalt, has strong controllability, and can moderately increase the softening point of the asphalt.

[0054] (3) In the preparation method of the present invention, before preparing the modified asphalt, a suitable cationic monomer modifier is first prepared to graft the base asphalt. The modifier of the present invention contains tertiary amine and isothiocyanate groups, which makes the base asphalt more surface active, which is beneficial to crosslinking with polymers and to dispersion during subsequent preparation of emulsified asphalt, thus solving the problems of SBS modified asphalt being difficult to emulsify and unstable in storage.

[0055] (4) The modified emulsified asphalt of this invention has cationic groups grafted onto its surface, making it positively charged, while the aggregates used for paving roads are mostly negatively charged. This makes it easier for the modified emulsified asphalt to combine with the aggregates after demulsification when it is applied to cold-mixed road paving materials, increasing adhesion and anti-stripping ability, thus improving the overall performance of the mixture.
