Abstract:
With the continuous development of road construction and maintenance, SBS(Styrene-butadiene-styrene)-modified asphalt is widely used. However, there is no mature method for restoring aged SBS-modified asphalt. This study proposes the use of SBR(polymerized styrene butadiene rubber) and bio-oil for the restoration of aged SBS. In this study, five kinds of recycled asphalt were prepared by adding 5% bio-oil, 10% bio-oil, 6% SBR, 6% SBR + 5% bio-oil, and 6% SBR + 10% bio-oil to long-term aged SBS-modified asphalt. Softening point, penetration, and rotational viscosity experiments were tested to evaluate the conventional properties. Rheological tests revealed the performance of asphalt. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and atomic force microscope (AFM) tests were tested to demonstrate the microscopic characteristics of asphalt. Conventional tests investigated that aged asphalt viscosity will increase. Bio-oil could well recycle the asphalt viscosity. SBR could also soften aged asphalt, but its modification effect is limited compared with bio-oil. Rheological tests presented that the SBR and bio-oil have little impact on the temperature sensitivity of SBS-modified asphalt. SBR and bio-oil could decrease the asphalt stiffness. However, SBR and bio-oil could ameliorate the anti-cracking behavior of aged asphalt. The microscopic tests exhibited that SBR and bio-oil could decrease the asphaltene and colloid. Meanwhile, bio-oil could supplement alcohols and ethers at wave number 1000 cm−1–1270 cm−1. Alcohols and ethers are hard to oxidize, something which has a beneficial role in the anti-aged of recycled asphalt.
