Emulsion Bitumen Applications
Emulsion Bitumen applications due to its special and unique features such as impermeability to water and excellent adhesion. In the meantime, emulsion bitumen can be divided into three categories: anionic, cationic and nonionic according to their ionic structure and provide you with certain advantages. Among the most important applications of emulsion bitumen are the following:
- Widely used in cold asphalt mixtures
- Use for asphalt repairs and stains
- Use for purposes such as dust collection and mulching
- Use in fogseal, sealcoat, single coat, primer, etc.
- Numerous applications in single-layer or multi-layer surface asphalts
Emulsion Bitumen Applications and features
Emulsion bitumen, like other types of bitumen, can have unique features, the most important of which can be summarized as follows:
- High adhesion Possibility of use at ambient temperature
- Easy transportation in bulk, etc.
- Excellent permeability due to high fluidity
- High environmental compatibility and non-toxicity
- No need for heating during storage, transportation and spraying Lower risk of ignition due to different amounts of water Low pollutant power compared to petroleum bitumen, blown bitumens, soluble bitumens, etc.
