Preparation and Properties of Waterborne Epoxy-Resin-Emulsified Asphalt Modified by Oxidized Extraction Oil

Waterborne epoxy-resin-emulsified asphalt (WEREA) has excellent adhesion and can be used as a good waterproofing tack coat; however, there are some problems such as the poor compatibility between the waterborne epoxy and the emulsified asphalt, and the brittleness of the cured material. In the present work, oxidized furfural extract oil was used as a compatibilizer to prepare the waterborne epoxy emulsion and waterborne epoxy-resin-emulsified asphalt, and their modification effects were studied. The extraction oil was oxidized with potassium permanganate. The effects of oxidized extraction oil on the waterborne epoxy-resin-emulsified asphalt performance were investigated through experiments on viscosity, mechanical properties, and aging resistance. Combined with infrared spectroscopy and fluorescence microscopy, the compatibility and microstructure of the oxidized extraction oil modified WEREA were observed and analyzed. The result showed that the carboxyl group was introduced into the chemical structure of the extraction oil after oxidation. Oxidized extraction oil (OEO) and waterborne epoxy resin (WER) had good compatibility. When the content of OEO in the WER is 21%, the elongation at break of the WER can reach up to a maximum of 91.5%, and has a significant increase of 33.2%. OEO can significantly improve the elongation at the break and aging resistance of WEREA, especially when the mix ratio of oxidized extraction oil and epoxy resin was 6:5, when the breaking elongation of WEREA can be increased by 69%, and the compatibility between the epoxy resin and emulsified asphalt was the best. Moreover, the loss in elongation at the break of aged WEREA decreased from 13.7% to 4.9%.
