REOB/SBS Composite-Modified Bitumen Preparation and Modification Mechanism Analysis

To investigate the effect of recycled engine oil bottoms (REOB) as a compatibilizer on the properties of styrene–butadiene–styrene-modified bitumen (SBS-PMB), this paper studied the preparation method, properties, and micro-mechanism of composite modification of matrix bitumen with SBS and REOB. Firstly, a multi-factor orthogonal experiment determined the optimal preparation scheme of REOB/SBS composite-modified bitumen (REOB/SBS-PMB). Then, the high-temperature stability rheological properties, and anti-aging performance of REOB-PMB were studied by testing Brookfield viscosity, elasticity recovery, and dynamic shear rheology (DSR) and by short_term aging simulation (TFOT). Finally, the microstructure, fraction content, and SBS particle dispersion of 70# matrix bitumen (70-MB), SBS-PMB, and REOB/SBS-PMB were compared and analyzed by tests of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), rod-shaped thin-layer chromatography, and fluorescence microscopy to reveal the micro-mechanism of REOB improving SBS and bitumen compatibility. The research results showed that the mixing form of SBS and REOB in bitumen was mainly physical swelling and blending, with chemical changes also present that have a minor impact. The light fraction in REOB increased the flowability of bitumen, promoted the swelling of SBS, improved the compatibility between SBS and bitumen, and improved the high-temperature stability and rheological properties while reducing the impact of aging.
