Research and Improvement of SBS Asphalt-Modifier Content Testing Technology Based on Infrared Spectrum

Abstract

Infrared spectroscopy SBS asphalt-modifier content detection technology has been applied in practical projects, which can effectively ensure the quality of pavement engineering. If the composition ratio of modified asphalt is not clear, the accuracy of the test results will be affected, which is the disadvantage of conventional infrared spectroscopy detection methods. In this paper, the influence of different kinds of additives on the accuracy of the infrared spectrogram and SBS content test was analyzed, and the microscopic mechanism of the effect of additives on the accuracy of SBS modified asphalt content testing was uncovered. Meanwhile, the sample preparation technique was improved and the testing technique was optimized. Results demonstrate that the improved standard curve algorithm eliminates the effect of additives on test accuracy, and the effect of additives on test accuracy was eliminated by improving the standard curve algorithm. Without the addition of additives, the content of the modifier is accurately measured by simplifying the boundary conditions of the test technique. The preparation of samples by the dissolution method has more advantages than the tableting method and can be used as a new sample preparation technology. Improvements in sample preparation techniques and standard curve algorithms improve the safety, convenience, applicability, and accuracy of detection techniques.
