Bitumen mixtures, asphalt concretes processing

  • Granular additive ELASTIC A / ELASTIC B

    Granular additive based on a chemical conditioner and SBS polymer.

    Application fields: improving the features of the bituminous concretes.

    Characteristics and advantages:

    • Increase of the concrete fluidity and workability.
    • Reduction in viscosity to average temperatures.
    • Less heat dispersion and longer preserving of concrete temperature.
    • Improvement of mechanical resistance to deformation and compression.
    • Lowering of the working temperatures of approximately 200C than average values.
    • Significant reduction of toxic emissions and energy savings.

  • Liquid additive CLW / CLW HP

    Liquid antioxidant additive with a polymer base.

    Application fields: traditional and draining bituminous concretes, bituminous mixtures.

    Characteristics and advantages:

    • Increased antioxidant properties.
    • Improvement of the functional service up to 50% after aging.
    • Excellent adhesiveness activator;
    • Viscosity reduction to average temperatures.
    • Improvement of the thermal property, as a consequence a longer period during the placing phase.
    • Significant reduction of the air voids in the concrete, allowing for a reduction of about 6%-10% from the bitumen quantity.
    • More fluidity during the application, and as a consequence an improvement of compactness.
    • Lowering of the inert materials temperature during the mixing phase of approximately 20%.
    • Due to the lowering plant's operating temperature, a significant reduction of toxic emissions is possible.
    • Faster heat dispersion time for the bituminous layer in its cooling phase, from 800C to 250C.
