The invention discloses a warm mixing type bio-based
asphalt regenerant and a preparation method thereof. The bio-based
asphalt regenerant comprises the following substances: 47-55 wt% of
vegetable oil, 12-15 wt% of
terpene phenolic resin, 5-8 wt% of an
antioxidant, 3-5 wt% of a surfactant, 6-8 wt% of a
plasticizer, 6-8 wt% of a stabilizer and 8-12 wt% of a bio-based modifier. The preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing a stabilizer and an
algae extract; putting the
vegetable oil into a reaction kettle and heating; adding the surfactant into the reaction kettle and stirring; adding
terpene phenolic resin into the reaction kettle and stirring; the preparation method comprises the following steps: adding dilauryl thiodipropionate and
vitamin E into a reaction kettle, stirring, adding
furfural, and stirring; after raising the temperature, firstly adding
chitin and sulfonated
lignin into the reaction kettle, stirring, then adding the
algae extract, and stirring; and adding the
plasticizer and the stabilizer into the reaction kettle, and stirring to obtain the bio-based
asphalt regenerant. According to the present invention, the missing components in the aged asphalt can be recovered and supplemented, the original chemical components can be re-balanced, and the performance of the aged asphalt can be recovered.
