The invention belongs to the technical field of
road engineering, in particular to a color
asphalt binder capable of being directly applied and a preparation method thereof. The binder consists of 25 to 38 percent of
petroleum resin, 12 to 22 percent of aromatic oil, 8 to 15 percent of
styrene-butadiene triblock
copolymer (SBS), 28 to 32 percent of color
pigment, 5 to 10 percent of abherent, 0.05 to 1 percent of
plasticizer, and 0.05 to 1 percent of
antioxidant. The binder has a simple preparation method, can meet the technical index requirements of various building asphalts by adjusting the content of the
petroleum resin, the content of the aromatic oil and the content of the
styrene-butadiene triblock
copolymer. Color
asphalt binders in red, yellow, blue and other colors can be produced by regulating the color
pigment. Furthermore, in the process of transporting the color
asphalt binder, heating transportation is not required, and a special tanker for transportation is not required, so that the problems of low transportation efficiency and difficult operation of the color asphalt are solved. Meantime, the storage time of the
solid particular color asphalt binder is greatly prolonged, and the color asphalt binder is convenient to apply, and has positive effect on popularization and application of color asphalt pavements.
