The invention belongs to the field of
asphalt modifiers, and particularly relates to
styrene-butadiene latex and a preparation method and application thereof. The preparation method provided by the invention comprises the following steps: a) mixing an emulsifier, a molecular weight
regulator, a dispersing agent, a free radical stabilizer, an
electrolyte and water, regulating the temperature, and adding butadiene,
styrene, a
tertiary amine
monomer and an initiator into the mixed
system for reaction when the temperature of the mixed
system reaches 5-15 DEG C, b) after the reaction is carried outfor 4-6 hours, adding a cross-linking agent into the
reaction system, then heating to 20-40 DEG C, and continuously reacting for 0.5-2 hours, and c) after the reaction is finished, mixing the obtained
reaction product with an anti-aging agent, and degassing to obtain the
styrene-butadiene latex. According to the method provided by the invention, by adopting a low-high temperature two-stage methodfor
polymerization, adding a proper amount of
tertiary amine
monomer to participate in copolymerization and adding a proper amount of
organic matter containing an active
halogen group as a cross-linking agent, the prepared styrene-butadiene latex has relatively high
solid content and excellent
asphalt modification capability.
