The invention discloses modified
asphalt, a method for preparing the modified
asphalt by using direct liquefied
coal residues in a normal pressure
continuous mode, and an application of the modified
asphalt. The method comprises the following steps: 1, adding an extracting
solvent into the direct liquefied
coal residues for performing
thermal dissolution extraction,
solid-liquid separation and
solvent recycling treatment in sequence so as to obtain a heavy dope with the extracting
solvent; 2, adding a cross-linking agent into the heavy dope, stirring and mixing so as to obtain a first mixture; 3, adding a catalyst into the first mixture, heating at normal pressure to perform cross-linking
polymerization so as to obtain the modified asphalt. According to the method, the
modes that in the prior art, the direct liquefied
coal residues are directly prepared into high-temperature asphalt firstly and subsequently heavy oil is added to perform cross-linking
polymerization to modify the asphalt are abandoned, but the cross-linking agent is directly added into the heavy dope with the extracting solvent after
distillation to polymerize at normal pressure so as to obtain a modified asphalt product with a low
softening point and high beta resin content, and the modified asphalt is suitable for being used as middle / high-temperature binding asphalt and a
raw material of dipping asphalt.
