Reducing asphalt temperature during the fabrication and laying out of the current road construction sustainable objective, is one of the most interesting technologies in the field. Particularly the mixing of small amount of cold water in hot bitumen provokes a well known foaming effect reducing working temperature and increasing surface area in the bitumen. Not only enviromental advantages but cost saving are getting impulse to this technology. Adhesion and "foam stability" have been our objectives in the preparation of new additives and new technologies for improving performance of this kind of asphalt mix.
asphaltnit-GAS is a propietary chemically modified graphite nanoplatelets in solid form. Chemical interaction with all kind of aggregates (siliceous, calcareous, etc) and bitumen components improves adhesion and moisture sensibility in foamed bitumen fromulations.
Apperance: Black solid powder.
Doses starting at 0,05% (with respect to bitumen content)
Excellent mixing with bitumen. Additivated bitumen stable over time

asphaltnit-FOAMER is a simple and easy to use laboratory device for making in a precise and controlled manner (temperature, water content, pressure, etc...) foamed bitumen up to 1 Kg scale per batch. The lean design, allows not only to study the behavior of the bitumen foam but to plug easily to laboratory asphalt mixers for specimen preparation.
