Abstract:

Using the Box⁃Behnken’s response surface method and taking the dosages of silane⁃coupling⁃agent⁃modified montmorillonite, SBS, and high viscosity agent (HVA) as influence factors for asphalt, a model was established to determine the optimal dosages of three types of raw materials in the asphalt based on the Brinell viscosity at 170 ℃ as an evaluation criterion. The results indicated that the high⁃viscosity⁃modified asphalt containing 5 wt% SBS, 9 wt% HVA, and 8 wt% modified montmorillonite exhibited the best performance, and its penetration, ductility, softening point, and Brinell's viscosity at 170 ℃ were determined to be 4.52 mm, 42.9 cm, 86.1 ℃, and 2.371 Pa·s, respectively. Dynamic shear and Brinell's viscosity tests show that, compared to the pristine asphalt and the high⁃viscosity⁃modified asphalt TPS, the addition of modified montmorillonite greatly improved the high⁃temperature performance and rutting resistance of asphalt, resulting in a significant improvement in the viscosity. The functional groups were analyzed by Fourier⁃transmission infrared spectroscopy. The disappearance of the vibration peaks indicated that the silane coupling agent involved a chemical reaction with montmorillonite in the modification process.
