What Is Emulsion Bitumen?
Holding a share of 20% global bitumen use, bitumen emulsions are basically an O/W (Oil on Water solution) a dispersion of bitumen particles on water, stabilized with the addiction of surfactants (Surface active agents) or most commonly known as emulsifiers, that will permit the bitumen to de-diluted in water. They are primarily used for tack coats that use in between hot mix asphalt layers and prime coats for thin hot mix surfacing layers or a chip seal pavements.
Bitumen emulsions are divided into three categories:
- Anionic with negatively charged globules
- Cationic with positively charged globules
- Non-ionic with neutral globules.
