1.energy conservation
Kerosene or gasoline content to dilute the bitumen can reach at 50%, while emulsified asphalt only containing 0 to 2%. So, this is a great savings value behavior on white fuel production and utilization, only rely on increase of light oil solvent to reduce the viscosity of standard asphalt, bitumen can be watered and spreading, and hope light oil after use can volatilizate into the atmosphere. In fact, if the light oil can be non-volatile, so it is too soft for asphalt in traffic load, road surface may deform or weeping. Now with the same solid emulsions and light oil were compared, the results are as follows:
light oil (hard asphalt)：
Processing 1L paving with asphalt cutback takes about energy 700KJ, coupled with increased energy and other cutting devices, namely 40000KJ / L, this light 1L60% bitumen emulsion production facilities throughout the energy requirements are:
700+4.4x40000=16700（KN）
Emulsified Asphalt: 1L emulsified asphalt production requires energy 576KJ, 1L production of emulsified asphalt emulsifier provided energy 584KJ, so emulsified asphalt production 1L total energy 1160KJ.
It can be seen, most of the energy is consumed by the fuel.
2.Versatility
There are many kinds of emulsified asphalt application methods to select the appropriate set method applied, because they have a very wide range of applications. Also provided both to make an emulsion seal coat withdraw a large area of cloth, it can also be used to set up small-scale pit repair work. Because they can be long-term storage in the tank, when used in remote areas, the use of roller spraying application is very easy.
3. Easy to use
Lotion dispenser requires specialized equipment set up, such as a spreader. However, small area can be directly watering by hand and hand spreading, such as a small area of pothole pacther working pits, cracks sealing etc.. Small amount of cold mix mixture just need the basic equipment on the line. For example, a shovel and a watering with a baffle can achieve a small area of the sealing layer and crack repair, pothole repair method using poured-type applications such as filling potholes simple.
