Description

  The present invention relates to a paving asphalt regeneration additive. Specifically, asphalt regeneration is excellent in safety to the environment and the human body, and has the ability to recover the hardened asphalt contained in pavement waste materials to the initial softness, that is, the ability to restore reduced penetration and elongation. It relates to an additive composition.

  To recycle pavement waste, mix pavement waste, new aggregate, and new asphalt with a mixer in the asphalt mixture factory, and the penetration and elongation of the asphalt hardened by the deterioration contained in the pavement waste. In order to restore the initial softness, a method for regenerating degraded asphalt by adding an asphalt regeneration additive has been performed. This asphalt regeneration additive uses mineral oil with high aromaticity, for example, extract oil obtained from the solvent extraction process of petroleum refining, for the purpose of supplementing aromatic components in asphalt lost due to deterioration. Is the current situation (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2).

Such mineral oil with high aromaticity compensates for the aromatic component in the deteriorated asphalt, and therefore has a high ability to recover the penetration and elongation greatly reduced due to deterioration. In particular, in order to greatly recover the elongation, the added mineral oil is required to have high aromaticity. However, since mineral oils with high aromaticity contain a large amount of polycyclic aromatics (PCA), there is a heavy burden on the environment and the human body, and there is a demand for the development of an asphalt regeneration additive that is currently highly safe for the environment and the human body. Is high.

That is, the first of the present invention is a composition obtained by blending mineral oil and fat with a kinematic viscosity at 40 ° C. of 300 to 900 mm ² / s and a polycyclic aromatic content (PCA) of less than 3% by mass. And an asphalt regeneration additive composition having a kinematic viscosity at 40 ° C. of 40 to 400 mm ² / s, a polycyclic aromatic content (PCA) of less than 3% by mass, and a flash point of 220 ° C. or more.

Can be recovered.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
(Kinematic viscosity of mineral oil)
The kinematic viscosity at 40 ° C. of the mineral oil according to the present invention needs to be 300 to 900 mm ² / s. When the kinematic viscosity at 40 ° C. is lower than 300 mm ² / s, the light fraction is increased. Therefore, when making an asphalt pavement mixture, white smoke is undesirably generated when it comes into contact with high-temperature aggregate. On the other hand, when the kinematic viscosity at 40 ° C. exceeds 900 mm ² / s, the fluidity is lowered and handling properties are deteriorated, and a large amount of mineral oil is required to recover the penetration and elongation. It is not preferable. For this reason, the lower limit of the kinematic viscosity at 40 ° C. is preferably 350 mm ² / s or more, and more preferably 400 mm ² / s or more. The upper limit is preferably 800 mm ² / s or less, more preferably 700 mm ² / s.

(Polycyclic aromatic content of mineral oil)
The polycyclic aromatic content (PCA) in the mineral oil according to the present invention needs to be less than 3% by mass. If the PCA in the mineral oil is 3% by mass or more, the load on the environment and the human body may increase, such being undesirable. For this reason, PCA is preferably less than 2.8% by mass, more preferably less than 2% by mass, and even more preferably less than 1% by mass. If it says further, less than 0.3 mass% is especially preferable.
The polycyclic aromatics (PCA) here refers to “The Institute of Petroleum” IP346 / 92 “Determination of polycyclic aromatics in unused lubricant base oils and asphaltene free petroleum fractions-Dimethyl sulphoxide extraction refractive index method”. It means the content (% by mass) of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon compound obtained according to the method.

(The flash point of mineral oil)
The flash point of the mineral oil according to the present invention is preferably 220 ° C. or higher. When the flash point of mineral oil is less than 220 ° C., the safety during production of the asphalt pavement mixture decreases, which is not preferable. For this reason, the flash point is more preferably 230 ° C. or higher, and further preferably 250 ° C. or higher. The flash point here means the flash point (° C.) measured by the Cleveland open-type flash point test method of JIS K2265 “Crude oil and petroleum products—Flash point test method”.

(Mineral oil density)
The density of the mineral oil according to the present invention at 15 ° C. is preferably 0.88 to 0.95 / cm ³ . If the density of the mineral oil at 15 ° C. is less than 0.88 g / cm ³ , since it contains a lot of light components, white smoke is likely to be generated during the regeneration of the paving waste, which is not preferable. Therefore, the lower limit of the density is more preferably 0.90 g / cm ³ or more. On the other hand, if the upper limit of the density exceeds 0.95 g / cm ³ , the ratio of the aromatic component is high, PCA may be 3% by mass or more, and the load on the environment and the human body increases. For this reason, 0.94 g / cm ³ or less is more preferable.
In addition, the density here means the density (g / cm ³ ) at 15 ° C. measured by JIS K2249 “Crude oil and petroleum products—density test method”.

(% CA of mineral oil)
The% CA of the mineral oil according to the present invention is preferably less than 20%. If% CA is 20% or more, PCA may be 3% by mass or more, which increases the load on the environment and the human body. For this reason, it is more preferably 18% or less, and further preferably 15% or less.
In addition,% CA here refers to the percentage of the number of aromatic ring carbons to the total number of carbons measured by ASTM D3238 “Standard Test Method for Calculation of Carbon Distribution and Structural Group Analysis of Petroleum Oils by the ndM Method” (% ).

(Aniline point of mineral oil)
The aniline point of the mineral oil according to the present invention is preferably 70 ° C. or higher. If the aniline point is less than 70 ° C., the PCA may be 3% by mass or more, which increases the load on the environment and the human body. For this reason, 80 ° C. or higher is more preferable, and 85 ° C. or higher is more preferable.
Here, the aniline point means an aniline point (° C.) measured by JIS K2256 “Petroleum product aniline point and mixed aniline point test method”.

(Change rate of heating mass of mineral oil)
The thin film heating mass change rate of the mineral oil according to the present invention is preferably −3.0 mass% or less (thin film heating loss is 3.0 mass% or less). When the thin film heating mass change rate exceeds −3.0 mass% (thin film heating loss exceeds 3.0 mass%), since it contains a large amount of light components, white smoke is likely to be generated during the regeneration of paving waste, which is not preferable. For this reason, −2.0 mass% or less (thin film heating loss is 2.0 mass% or less) is more preferable, and −1.0 mass% or less (thin film heating loss is 1.0 mass% or less) is more preferable. If it says further, -0.5 mass% or less (a thin film heating loss will be 0.5 mass% or less) is more preferable.
The thin film heating mass change rate here refers to the thin film heating mass change rate (mass%) measured by JIS K2207 “Petroleum Asphalt—Thin Film Heating Test Method”, and a negative value means a weight loss. .

The crude oil used in producing the mineral oil of the present invention is not particularly limited. Preferred are crude crude oil, mid-continuous crude oil, Arabic crude oil, Gucci Saran crude oil, Kafuji crude oil, Maya crude oil, neutral zone special crude oil, Foot crude oil, Kuwait crude oil, Rataway crude oil, Allian crude oil, Eosin crude oil, Solish crude oil and the like. Of these, mixed base crude oil and naphthene base crude oil are preferable.

  The mineral oil of the present invention has a kinematic viscosity of 40 ° C. and a PCA content within the above-mentioned ranges, and is particularly limited if the asphalt regeneration additive composition obtained by blending this with oils and fats satisfies predetermined properties. However, it is possible to use a fraction that has been purified by a suitable combination of solvent removal, solvent extraction, hydrocracking solvent dewaxing, catalytic dewaxing, hydrorefining, sulfuric acid washing, clay treatment, and the like. In particular, the oil fraction obtained by distilling crude oil under reduced pressure is extracted with a solvent extraction such as furfural extraction using a furfural to remove aromatics and resin in the oil fraction, and liquid propane is used from the oil obtained by distillation under reduced pressure. Solvent dewaxing, such as MEK dewaxing, which removes wax using a solvent such as MEK, and hydrorefining A high-viscosity high-grade lubricating oil component (bright stock) or the like obtained by combining these is preferably used.

  It is preferable that the fatty acid part of the glyceride constituting these fats and oils is a saturated fatty acid having 3 to 18 carbon atoms, an unsaturated fatty acid having one or more unsaturated bonds, or a mixture thereof. Further, the freezing point of these fats and oils is desirably 20 ° C. or less, and more desirably 0 ° C. or less. Moreover, it is still more preferable if it is -10 degrees C or less. Further, the lower the freezing point of these fats and oils, the lower the freezing point of the resulting asphalt regeneration additive composition, and the better the handling properties at low temperatures. However, even when fats and oils having a freezing point exceeding 20 ° C. are blended, they can be easily liquefied by heating above the freezing point, so that they can be used as fats and oils used in the present asphalt regeneration additive composition.

Examples of saturated fatty acids having 3 to 18 carbon atoms include butyric acid (C ₃ H ₇ COOH), caproic acid (C ₅ H ₁₁ COOH), caprylic acid (C ₇ H ₁₅ COOH), capric acid (C ₉ H ₁₉ COOH) ), Lauric acid (C ₁₁ H ₂₃ COOH), myristic acid (C ₁₃ H ₂₇ COOH), palmitic acid (C ₁₅ H ₃₁ COOH), stearic acid (C ₁₇ H ₃₅ COOH), and the like. Examples of unsaturated fatty acids having 3 to 18 carbon atoms include oleic acid (C ₁₇ H ₃₃ COOH), linoleic acid (C ₁₇ H ₃₁ COOH), linolenic acid (C ₁₇ H ₂₉ COOH), and ricinolenic acid (C ₁₇ H ₃₂ (OH) COOH) and the like.

Moreover, the position of the unsaturated bond in the molecule of the unsaturated fatty acid is not limited to those generally confirmed in nature in the present invention, but can also be used at any position set by chemical synthesis. .
The above-mentioned fats and oils (animal oil, vegetable oil) have one or more of these fatty acid groups, and the fatty acids they have vary depending on the type of fat. For example, coconut oil has a relatively large amount of saturated fatty acids such as lauric acid and myristic acid, while rapeseed oil and soybean oil have a large amount of unsaturated fatty acids such as oleic acid and linoleic acid.

The fatty acid composition in these fats and oils can be quantified using a gas chromatograph. Analytical conditions are shown below. By using a free fatty acid type column (FFAP), these substances can be easily and accurately quantified.

Here, the sum total of mineral oil and fats and oils is 100 mass%. When the blending ratio of fats and oils is less than 10% by mass, the elongation of the deteriorated asphalt in the pavement waste material cannot be sufficiently recovered depending on the mineral oil used, preferably 10% by mass or more, more preferably 20% by mass or more. 30% by mass or more is more preferable. On the other hand, when the blending ratio of fats and oils exceeds 90% by weight, the amount of addition necessary to recover the penetration and elongation is extremely reduced, so that the regenerated additive is uniformly applied to the deteriorated asphalt in the paving waste material. 90% by mass or less is preferable, 85% by mass or less is more preferable, and 80% by mass or less is more preferable because there is a concern that the asphalt pavement mixture is not spread and is regenerated unevenly.

(Kinematic viscosity of regenerated additive composition)
The kinematic viscosity (40 ° C.) of the asphalt regeneration additive composition of the present invention needs to be 40 to 400 mm ² / s.

On the other hand, when the kinematic viscosity (40 ° C.) is 40 mm ² / s or less, the amount of addition required for recovering the penetration and elongation of deteriorated asphalt in the paving waste material is extremely reduced. There is a concern that the regenerated additive does not spread uniformly over the deteriorated asphalt, resulting in a non-uniformly regenerated asphalt pavement mixture. For this reason, the kinematic viscosity (40 ° C.) of the asphalt regeneration additive composition of the present invention is preferably 50 mm ² / s or more, and more preferably 80 mm ² / s or more. On the other hand, the upper limit is preferably at most 350 mm ² / s, more preferably at most 300 mm ² / s.

(Flash point of regenerated additive composition)

(Polycyclic aromatic content in the regenerative additive composition)
The polycyclic aromatic content (PCA) of the asphalt regeneration additive composition of the present invention needs to be less than 3% by mass. If the PCA in the mineral oil is 3% by mass or more, the load on the environment and the human body may increase, such being undesirable. For this reason, PCA is preferably less than 2.8% by mass, more preferably less than 2% by mass, and even more preferably less than 1% by mass. Furthermore, if it says, less than 0.2 mass% is especially preferable.

For this reason, −2.0 mass% or less (thin film heating loss is 2.0 mass% or less) is more preferable, and −1.0 mass% or less (thin film heating loss is 1.0 mass% or less) is more preferable. If it says further, -0.5 mass% or less (a thin film heating loss will be 0.5 mass% or less) is more preferable.

The amount is preferably 4 to 30 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the deteriorated asphalt in the pavement waste material. When this amount is less than 4 parts by weight, the additive does not spread throughout the deteriorated asphalt, resulting in uneven regeneration. On the other hand, when the amount exceeds 30 parts by weight, the regeneration effect becomes excessive, and in particular, the penetration exceeds a desired value. For this reason, the preferred addition amount is 5 to 25 parts by weight, and more preferably 6 to 20 parts by weight.

Since Additives 9 and 10 contain fats and oils (glyceride compound) more than necessary, the amount of addition required during regeneration is extremely small, and the additive does not reach the entire deteriorated asphalt and only non-uniform regeneration is possible. As a result, the penetration values of the regenerated samples varied greatly.
