Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of modified asphalt preparation technology. Background Technology

[0002] Globally, approximately 1.5 billion waste tires are generated annually, and this number continues to grow. Despite the development of various processing technologies, the overall resource utilization rate of waste tires remains low due to limitations in current process efficiency and cost. It is estimated that over 60% of waste tires are currently disposed of in landfills. These materials, due to their high calorific value (>30 MJ / kg), low thermal conductivity (approximately 0.14 W / m·K), and internal porosity that easily traps water, not only significantly increase the fire risk index (flash point >300℃) but also easily create a breeding ground for disease-carrying organisms, leading to serious secondary ecological pollution.

[0003] In the field of solid waste resource utilization, the application of waste tires in road engineering has formed a large-scale technological path. Waste rubber powder prepared by mechanical crushing can replace 10% to 20% of the base asphalt in the preparation of waste rubber powder modified asphalt. This technical route has dual environmental benefits: on the one hand, it reduces the consumption of non-renewable petroleum resources, and on the other hand, it improves the material recycling rate. Studies have shown that the incorporation of waste rubber powder can increase the fatigue life of asphalt mixtures by 35% to 50%, improve the rutting resistance of pavements by more than 40%, and significantly extend the service life of roads.

[0004] However, the inherent three-dimensional cross-linked network structure of waste rubber powder (mainly CS and SS bonds) results in weak interaction between it and the asphalt matrix, leading to significant phase separation during storage of waste rubber powder modified asphalt, which severely restricts its engineering application. Existing modification technologies are mainly divided into the following aspects: (1) Physical modification method: destroying the cross-linked structure through microwave radiation, but the electromagnetic induction discharge phenomenon caused by tire steel wire residue poses a safety hazard; (2) Microbial desulfurization method: utilizing the biological enzymatic hydrolysis of sulfur-loving bacteria, but there are technical bottlenecks such as long reaction cycle (>72h).

[0005] Therefore, exploring a safe and rapid desulfurization method has become a key research direction. Based on this desulfurization technology, the cross-linked structure of waste rubber powder is disrupted, the interaction between waste rubber powder and asphalt is enhanced, the storage stability of waste rubber powder-modified asphalt is improved, and the promotion of waste rubber powder-modified asphalt is facilitated. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present invention aims to address the lack of a safe and rapid desulfurization method to disrupt the cross-linking structure of waste rubber powder, enhance the interaction between waste rubber powder and asphalt, and improve the storage stability of waste rubber powder modified asphalt. Therefore, it provides a method for desulfurizing waste rubber powder modified asphalt using a ternary eutectic solvent.

[0007] A method for modifying asphalt using ternary eutectic solvent-desulfurized waste rubber powder comprises the following steps:

[0008] I. Preparation of ternary eutectic solvents:

[0009] Choline chloride, zinc salt, and amide compound are mixed and then reacted under constant temperature and stirring conditions until the mixture becomes a clear solution, yielding a ternary eutectic solvent.

[0010] II. Ternary eutectic solvent desulfurization waste rubber powder:

[0011] Waste rubber powder was dispersed in a ternary eutectic solvent and then reacted under constant temperature and stirring conditions. After the reaction was completed, the mixture was washed and dried to obtain desulfurized waste rubber powder.

[0012] III. Preparation of Modified Asphalt:

[0013] The desulfurized waste rubber powder is sieved and added to the base asphalt. Then, under constant temperature and stirring conditions, the desulfurized waste rubber powder is evenly dispersed in the base asphalt. Finally, under constant temperature and shear conditions, the particle size of the desulfurized waste rubber powder is reduced to obtain ternary eutectic solvent-modified asphalt.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0015] (1) The ternary eutectic solvent in this invention is obtained by blending choline chloride (hydrogen bond donor), an amide compound (hydrogen bond acceptor), and a zinc Lewis acid salt. The amino group (-NH2) of the amide compound acts as the hydrogen bond donor, transferring protons (H+) to the amide group. + ) provides chloride ions (Cl - ), forming NH···Cl - Hydrogen bonding. Zinc salts act as Lewis acids, where Zn... 2+ It can form coordinate bonds with carbonyl oxygen (C=O) or amino (NH2) in amide compounds, jointly destroying the original crystal structure of the system, resulting in a further decrease in melting point, which is beneficial for subsequent full contact with waste rubber powder and improves the desulfurization modification effect;

[0016] (2) In this invention, waste rubber powder is desulfurized and modified based on a ternary eutectic solvent. On the one hand, Zn 2+ As a Lewis acid, it coordinates with sulfur atoms in sulfur crosslinking bonds (such as SS and SC bonds), polarizing and weakening the bond energy, thus promoting the pyrolysis or oxidative breakage of sulfur bonds. On the other hand, under high-temperature conditions, the amide group can accelerate the reaction with the CS and SS bonds of waste rubber powder, leading to the breakage of crosslinking bonds. Through the combined effect of these two aspects, the crosslinking network structure of waste rubber powder is destroyed to the greatest extent, improving the compatibility of waste rubber powder with asphalt.

[0017] (3) In this invention, the waste rubber powder is desulfurized based on ternary eutectic solvent, which destroys the dense three-dimensional network structure of the waste rubber powder, enhances its interaction with asphalt, and promotes the swelling-degradation process of the waste rubber powder in asphalt. While ensuring the road performance of modified asphalt, it improves the stability of waste rubber powder in asphalt and solves the problem that waste rubber powder is prone to sinking during hot storage, causing equipment damage and a decline in the road performance of waste rubber powder modified asphalt.

[0105] The base asphalt is No. 90 Liaohe Petrochemical asphalt.

[0106] Comparative Example 1: Undesulfurized waste rubber powder was added to this comparative example. The difference between this comparative example and Example 4 is that steps 1 and 2 are omitted, and in step 3, the desulfurized waste rubber powder is replaced with waste rubber powder. Everything else is the same as Example 4.

[0107] Comparative Example 2: This comparative example includes commercially available desulfurization waste rubber powder. The difference between this comparative example and Example 4 is that steps 1 and 2 are omitted, and in step 3, the desulfurization waste rubber powder is replaced with commercially available desulfurization waste rubber powder (model TL-800). Everything else is the same as in Example 4.

[0108] The desulfurized waste rubber powder prepared in step two of Examples 1 to 5, the waste rubber powder in Comparative Example 1, and the commercially available desulfurized waste rubber powder in Comparative Example 2 were soaked in toluene solution (25°C). Based on the principle of equilibrium swelling, their crosslinking density was calculated, and the test results are shown in Table 1.

[0109] Table 1 Crosslinking density of waste rubber powder and desulfurization waste rubber powder

[0110] Comparative Example 1 2.52 Comparative Example 2 1.63 Example 1 1.55 Example 2 1.42 Example 3 1.36 Example 4 1.15 Example 5 1.10

[0111] As shown in Table 1, the crosslinking density of desulfurized waste rubber powder based on ternary eutectic solvent is significantly lower than that of undesulfurized waste rubber powder and commercially available desulfurized waste rubber powder. This is because Zn 2+ As a Lewis acid, it coordinates with sulfur atoms in sulfur crosslinking bonds (such as SS and SC bonds), polarizing and weakening the bond energy, thus promoting the pyrolysis or oxidative breakage of sulfur bonds. Simultaneously, under high-temperature conditions, the amide group can accelerate the reaction with the CS and SS bonds of waste rubber powder, leading to the breakage of crosslinking bonds. Through the combined effect of these two aspects, the crosslinking network structure of waste rubber powder is destroyed to the greatest extent, resulting in a decrease in crosslinking density, which is beneficial for its interaction with asphalt.

[0112] The ternary eutectic solvent-modified waste rubber powder modified asphalt prepared in Examples 1 to 5, and the modified asphalt prepared in Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were placed in segregation tubes, and then tested in a constant temperature environment of 163℃ for 48 hours. The difference in softening points at the upper and lower ends of the tubes, i.e., the segregation softening point difference, was measured. The creep rate and ductility at 5℃ of the modified asphalt were also tested. The test results are shown in Table 2.

[0113] Table 2 Test results of modified asphalt

[0114]

[0115] As shown in Table 2, the waste rubber powder modified asphalt based on ternary eutectic solvent desulfurization exhibits improved performance compared to commercially available desulfurized waste rubber powder modified asphalt. The waste rubber powder modified asphalt based on ternary eutectic solvent desulfurization shows significant improvements in 5℃ ductility, creep rate, and stability in asphalt (differentiated softening point) compared to waste rubber powder modified asphalt. This is because the three-dimensional network structure of the waste rubber powder is disrupted, accelerating the swelling-degradation process in asphalt and leading to a greater degree of degradation. Therefore, the low-temperature crack resistance of the desulfurized waste rubber powder modified asphalt is significantly improved, and the softening point is significantly reduced, making it more conducive to the widespread application of waste rubber powder modified asphalt.

[0116] Figure 1 The image shows the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) spectrum of the ternary eutectic solvent prepared in step one of Example 5. As can be seen from the image, the upward peak on the DSC curve is an endothermic peak, indicating that the sample underwent a phase transition from solid to liquid. Therefore, the melting point of the obtained ternary eutectic solvent is 16°C, which is lower than that of choline chloride (305°C), a decrease of 289°C.
