Preparation and Macro-Micro Properties of SBS/REOB Modified-Rejuvenated Asphalt

Abstract

To solve the problem that waste oil residues cannot be utilized and to reuse the aged asphalt, suitable modifiers were selected to compound the aged asphalt with waste oil residues to study its performance. SBS/REOB modified-rejuvenated asphalt was prepared by a high-speed shearing mechanism with aged asphalt, Recycled Engine Oil Bottom (REOB), Styrenic Block Copolymers (SBS) modifier, and stabilizer. The effects of SBS content, REOB content, shear time, and shear rate on the conventional physical properties of asphalt were studied by orthogonal grey correlation analysis, and the optimum preparation scheme of SBS/REOB modified-rejuvenated asphalt was determined. The high and low temperature rheological properties of SBS/REOB modified-rejuvenated asphalt were studied using the Multiple Stress Creep Recover (MSCR) test and bending beam rheological (BBR) test. The mechanism of SBS/REOB on the modification and regeneration of aged asphalt was explored through four component tests and Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy. The results show that the optimum preparation scheme is 4.5% SBS dosage, 9% REOB dosage, 50 min~60 min shear time, and 4500 r/min shear rate. The addition of SBS improves the elastic recovery performance and high temperature deformation resistance of REOB rejuvenated asphalt. At the same time, the S-value decreases and the m-value increases, which significantly improves the low temperature cracking resistance of REOB rejuvenated asphalt. The addition of REOB achieves component blending and regeneration of aged asphalt by supplementing the light components. After the addition of SBS absorbs the light component and swelling reaction occurs, the whole modification-regeneration process is mainly physical co-mixing and co-compatibility.
