Precautions for the use of emulsified bitumen

As we all know, emulsified bitumen is a single-component black viscous liquid that can combine the roadbed and the pavement to improve the performance and service life of the road. So what problems should be paid attention to when using emulsified bitumen? Let’s follow the editor of Sinoroader Group, an emulsified bitumen manufacturer, to learn about it.

As a manufacturer with many years of experience in emulsified bitumen construction, Sinoroader Group believes that everyone needs to pay attention to the following 2 points when using it:

As we all know, emulsified bitumen is a single-component black viscous liquid that can combine the roadbed and the pavement to improve the performance and service life of the road. So what problems should be paid attention to when using emulsified bitumen? Let’s follow the editor of Sinoroader Group, an emulsified bitumen manufacturer, to learn about it.

As a manufacturer with many years of experience in emulsified bitumen construction, Sinoroader Group believes that everyone needs to pay attention to the following 2 points when using it:

1. Pay attention to the solvent penetration when using emulsified bitumen. Because emulsified bitumen contains permeable materials and can penetrate into the capillary pores of cement concrete to a depth of 3mm-5mm, it may block the capillary seepage pores after curing.

2. In the process of using emulsified bitumen, pay attention to the reaction curing effect. The initially cured waterproof bonding layer will produce a slight dissolution phenomenon under high temperature environment, and the aggregate particles will be embedded in the waterproof bonding layer under rolling action. However, in this process, there may be uneven melting or insufficient rolling pressure, which will affect the performance of emulsified bitumen.

Regarding the precautions for the use of emulsified bitumen, the editor will explain it to you here. If you have any questions, you can contact us for consultation at any time. Contact: +8618224529750

    Emulsified asphalt is an emulsion that disperses asphalt into the water phase to form a liquid at room temperature. This determines that emulsified asphalt has many technical and economic advantages over hot asphalt and diluted asphalt. We know that modified asphalt equipment is a road engineering machinery. In order to better promote users’ understanding of it, today the editor will introduce its characteristics to you so that users can better understand that modified asphalt equipment is used for modified asphalt. It consists of a main machine, a modifier feeding system, a finished product tank, a heat transfer oil reheating furnace and a microcomputer control system. The main machine is equipped with a mixing tank, a dilution tank, a colloid mill and an electronic weighing device. The entire production process is controlled by a computer automatic program. In addition, it can be learned that the product has the advantages of reliable quality, stable performance, accurate measurement, and convenient operation. It is an indispensable new equipment in highway construction. The advantages of asphalt equipment are prominently reflected in its two-way modification effect, that is, while greatly increasing the softening point of asphalt, it also significantly enhances the low-temperature ductility, improves the temperature sensitivity, and has a particularly large elasticity and recovery rate. The modified asphalt equipment has a long service life and a safe and reliable production process. The rotor and stator are specially heat treated, and the service life of the equipment is more than 15,000 hours.

    Emulsified asphalt equipment is a widely used asphalt equipment. Now its ultra-high performance has been widely praised by users. However, we must first ensure the safe use of emulsified asphalt equipment to fully demonstrate its performance; modified asphalt equipment is an asphalt binder made by adding rubber, resin, high molecular polymer, ground rubber powder or other fillers and other admixtures (modifiers), or taking measures such as mild oxidation of asphalt to improve the performance of asphalt or asphalt mixture; So how much do you know about the safe use and operation of modified asphalt equipment? Today, the editor will tell you;
    Placement: The modified asphalt equipment should be placed on a flat place, and the front axle wheel should be fixed with sleepers and the tires should be dangling to ensure the stability of the machine during work.
    Regularly inspect whether the mixer blades are deformed and whether the screws are loose.
    Inspect whether the running direction of the mixing barrel is consistent with the arrow; if not, please replace the positive and negative poles of the wiring.
    Before powering on, you should inspect and test run the empty vehicle, check for leakage, and check the idling of the mixing barrel. The normal speed is about 3 times faster when the empty vehicle is full. If the speed is wrong, you should stop the machine and check the asphalt tank.
    Note: After the asphalt material is mixed, it is best to stop the machine for one hour, clean the drain material in the mixing barrel, pour in clean water, and clean the mortar. Then drain the water. Remember that there should be no water accumulation in the barrel to prevent the formula from changing, and the blades are prone to rust. During use, everyone should pay attention to these small links to avoid unnecessary losses to their work.

    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.
