Changing the color of asphalt pavement is an important project aimed at improving the beauty of roads, optimizing traffic signs and enhancing urban landscape effects. The following is a detailed introduction to the color change of asphalt pavement:
1. Color change method
Using pavement color change spray:
Spray directly on the original asphalt pavement surface to make the road surface look brand new.
This method is simple and fast to construct, with bright and lasting colors, and will not change the structure of the pavement.

Using colored asphalt technology for paving:
Paving a layer of colored asphalt surface with a thickness of 3~5cm, which is both beautiful and durable.
This method requires professional construction equipment and technology, but the color change effect is long-lasting and is suitable for occasions with high requirements for road performance.

Using colored anti-skid particles for paving:
First pour a layer of anti-skid glue on the road surface, and then sprinkle colored anti-skid particles.
This method not only increases the beauty of the road, but also improves driving safety, especially for occasions that require anti-skid treatment.

2. Color change steps
Preliminary preparation:
Carry out a comprehensive inspection of the original asphalt pavement to ensure that its surface is flat and undamaged, and there are no looseness, cracks and other defects.
If there are quality problems, it is necessary to repair it first to ensure that the color-changing paint can bond well with the base layer.

Cleaning the pavement:
Use a pavement dry cleaner to clean the dust on the original asphalt surface layer, and clean it with water if necessary.
Ensure that the pavement is clean and tidy, providing a good foundation for subsequent color change construction.

Spraying the interface layer:
Use a special primer to spray a construction interface layer on the working surface.
During the construction process, ensure that the foundation is not contaminated, and proceed to the next step of construction after the surface is dry.

Spraying the color layer:
After the interface layer is dry, use an airless sprayer to spray the colored water-based pavement anti-skid paint.
Both sides of the pavement and roadbed should be protected with adhesive tape and plastic film to prevent pollution.

Spraying the protective layer:
To ensure that the finished colored surface layer is bright and lasting, a layer of transparent hydrophobic topcoat can be sprayed after the colored surface layer is sprayed and cured.
This layer of protective agent can effectively improve the aging resistance of colored pavement.

3. Precautions
Material selection:
The color-changing paint should use special colored pavement paint, which is not only bright and long-lasting, but also has good weather resistance, wear resistance and adhesion.

Color design:
The color selection of the pavement color change should consider functionality and aesthetics.
For example, different colors can be used to distinguish the lanes, sidewalks, bus lanes, etc.; at the same time, it should comply with the relevant national regulations on road traffic signs and markings.

Construction process:
Strictly follow the construction process of colored pavement paint.
Including base surface cleaning, primer brushing, color paint coating, surface layer protection and other steps, and ensure that each layer of paint is completely dry before proceeding to the next process.

Environmental protection:
Pay attention to environmental protection during construction to prevent paint from polluting the surrounding environment.
At the same time, the paint itself should have low VOC (volatile organic compounds) characteristics to reduce the impact on air quality.

Safety protection:
Obvious warning signs should be set up at the construction site to ensure the safety of pedestrians and vehicles.
Construction workers need to wear protective equipment to avoid direct contact with chemical paint.

Post-maintenance:
After the color change is completed, regular inspections should be carried out to promptly discover and repair problems such as coating shedding and wear.
To extend the service life of the colored pavement.
In summary, the color change of asphalt pavement is a complex and meticulous project that requires a professional construction team and high-quality color change materials to ensure the color change effect and quality.

    Water is one of the raw materials of the modified asphalt storage tank, and it is distributed in various components of the modified asphalt storage tank equipment. According to the components where water is distributed, the anti-cold measures are explained one by one. The water tank of the modified asphalt storage tank, the water inside the water tank is released through the filter valve. Some instruments of the modified asphalt storage tank do not have a filter valve to save the cost of the equipment. The modified asphalt storage tank can only be drained by loosening the flange bolts at the bottom. The water pump of the modified asphalt storage tank mentioned here includes a hot water pump and a circulating water pump. This type of water pump for the modified asphalt storage tank generally uses a pipeline centrifugal pump. There is a sewage outlet at the bottom of the pipeline centrifugal pump. The modified asphalt storage tank pays attention to the sewage treatment of the sewage outlet at the bottom of the pump. The modified asphalt storage tank emulsion tank generally uses a cone bottom. However, in order to better process the modified asphalt storage tank coefficient, the inlet and outlet are usually not placed at the bottom of the modified asphalt storage tank. Emulsion (mostly water) will remain at the bottom of the tank, and this part of the residual liquid in the modified asphalt storage tank must be discharged through the filter valve at the bottom. Emulsion pump for modified asphalt storage tank There are basically two types of emulsion pumps for modified asphalt storage tank equipment on the market, gear pumps or centrifugal water pumps. Gear pumps can only discharge the liquid inside the pump through the connection flange of the pipeline. The centrifugal water pump for modified asphalt storage tanks uses its own sewage outlet for sewage treatment. The first four items of modified asphalt storage tanks with basic knowledge are basically discharged, and the modified asphalt storage tanks will focus on the latter types. Modified asphalt storage tank colloid mill There will also be residual emulsion or water inside the modified asphalt storage tank colloid mill. The gap between the stator and rotor of the colloid mill is within 1mm. If there is a little residual water in the modified asphalt storage tank, it will cause the accident of frozen modified asphalt storage tank. The residue in the colloid mill can be treated by loosening the connection bolts of the finished product pipeline.

    In order to better play the role of slurry seal vehicles, this article explains the matters that should be noted from the aspects of the scope of application, type and material selection, construction technology, common diseases, etc. of slurry seal vehicles.
    The slurry seal vehicle is thin in thickness and mainly plays the role of waterproofing, anti-skid, wear-resistant and improving the appearance of the road surface. In the pavement structure system, it can only serve as a surface protection layer and wear layer, but not a load-bearing structure. It is widely used in the construction and maintenance of highways. Practice has proved that the slurry seal can also play an important role by reasonably selecting the thickness and type of the slurry seal and strictly controlling the construction technology and quality.
    (1). The scope of application of slurry seal vehicles includes the following aspects:
    1. When the pavement damage index of expressways and first-class highways is evaluated as medium and below, or the pavement damage index of second-class and below highways is evaluated as secondary and below, when medium repair and overlay measures should be taken, slurry seal can be selected.
    2. When the pavement driving quality index of expressways and first-class highways is evaluated as medium or below, or the pavement driving quality index of second-class and below highways is evaluated as second or below, medium repair and overlay measures should be taken to improve its flatness, and slurry seal can be selected.
    3. For sections of expressways and first-class highways with insufficient anti-skid capacity (SFC<40), or sections of second-class and below highways with insufficient anti-skid capacity (SFC<33.5), measures such as adding overlays should be taken to provide anti-skid capacity of the road surface. 4. Anti-skid layer and waterproof protective layer used for third- and fourth-class highways to improve the appearance of the road surface.

    Urban road maintenance is an important part of ensuring road safety and smooth traffic, among which slurry seal and micro-surfacing are two common maintenance methods.
    Slurry seal:
    Composition: emulsified asphalt or modified emulsified asphalt
    Function: waterproof, anti-skid, improve road surface appearance
    Scope of application: cover surface of secondary trunk roads, lower seal layer of newly built roads
    Micro-surfacing:
    Composition: modified asphalt
    Function: waterproof, anti-skid, wear-resistant, improve road surface appearance, repair ruts
    Scope of application: expressways, trunk roads
    Construction process:
    Cleaning the road surface
    Laying out the lines
    Wetting the original road surface
    Paving
    Repairing
    Maintenance
    Opening traffic
    Test section length ≥ 200m
    When the original road surface is an asphalt road surface, it needs to be wetted with water in dry or hot weather; non-asphalt road surfaces should be sprayed with tack coat oil; the lower seal layer of semi-rigid base asphalt road surfaces needs to be sprayed with penetration oil.
    For sections that need to be opened to traffic as soon as possible, a thin layer of sand can be spread.
    Quality acceptance:
    Before construction, check the test report of raw materials, slurry mixture design report, and paver calibration report.
    The entire construction line is evaluated as a 1km section.
    The main control items include skid resistance, water permeability, and thickness.
    Through these steps, the service life of the road can be effectively extended and driving safety can be ensured.

    Asphalt spreader is an irreplaceable tool for highway maintenance. Asphalt spreader is an irreplaceable tool for highway maintenance. Highway maintenance is divided into four categories according to the nature of the project, scale, and technical complexity: minor repair, medium repair, major repair, and improvement. Specific classification:
    (1) Minor repair and maintenance project: preventive maintenance and repair of slightly damaged parts of the highway and all its engineering facilities to keep them in good condition. It is usually planned and carried out daily by the maintenance team within the annual minor repair and maintenance quota funds on a monthly (ten-day) basis.
    (2) Medium repair project: regular repair and reinforcement of general wear and tear and local damage of highway engineering facilities to restore them to their original state. It is usually planned and implemented by grassroots road maintenance agencies on an annual (seasonal) basis.
    (3) Major repair project: periodic comprehensive repair of major damage to highway facilities to fully restore them to the original design standards, or local improvements and individual additions within the original technical level to gradually improve the highway’s traffic capacity. It is usually organized and implemented by grassroots road maintenance agencies or with the help of their superior agencies according to the approved annual project budget.
    (4) Improvement projects are large projects that improve the technical level of roads and their engineering facilities in stages and sections due to their inability to meet traffic volume and load requirements, or significantly improve traffic capacity through improvements. It is usually organized and implemented or completed through bidding by regional road maintenance agencies or provincial road maintenance agencies according to the approved plan and design budget.

    From the current point of view, road construction machinery has bottomed out and asphalt meltering equipment has risen rapidly. In recent years, highway construction and maintenance departments have a strong awareness of using asphalt mixing equipment, especially in developed coastal areas such as Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, etc. In addition, these regions have a fast economic growth rate, relatively developed industry, and strong comprehensive economic strength. Therefore, the consumption of asphalt mixing equipments in these regions has always been at the forefront of the country. With the rapid development of highway construction and the increase in demand for asphalt, barreled asphalt has been widely used for its convenient transportation and easy storage. In particular, most of the high-performance imported asphalt used in high-grade highways is in barrel form, which requires an asphalt meltering equipment with fast melting speed, clean de-barreling, and can prevent asphalt aging. my country’s highway construction has achieved remarkable results, among which mechanized production has contributed greatly. Different types of asphalt mixers and bitumen meltering equipment are selected for the characteristics of large highway pavement construction and tight construction period. With the rapid development of my country’s economy, the further extension of expressways, and the large-scale development of western construction, the central and western regions have become new investment hotspots. While paying attention to the market in the developed eastern regions, domestic road construction machinery manufacturers have also increased their efforts to develop the central and western markets, creating new highlights for the domestic asphalt mixing plants consumer market. In summary, my country’s asphalt mixing plant sales market has begun to move westward with the westward movement of investment hotspots. As the market center of gravity gradually shifts westward, the market in the western region is gradually heating up. The self-heating integrated structure, hot air barrel melting and bitumen barrel flipping technology in the asphalt barrel removal equipment are our company’s self-heating integrated structure. The thermal oil furnace used in the old equipment is perfectly integrated with the asphalt barrel removal equipment body, which reduces the volume of the entire set of equipment, greatly reduces equipment investment, saves equipment space and transfer transportation costs.
