Classification of asphalt emulsifiers

Emulsified asphalt is made by hot melting asphalt, dispersing it in an aqueous solution containing an emulsifier in a fine particle state through mechanical action, forming an oil-in-water asphalt emulsion. In road construction and maintenance projects, emulsified asphalt can be used for road maintenance, bonding between road layers, bridge deck paving, permeable oil on cement-stabilized macadam foundation, slurry seal waterproof layer, etc. It has the advantages of cold construction, safety, environmental protection, resource conservation, energy conservation, extended construction season, and improved construction conditions. It plays a very important role in the construction and maintenance of municipal roads, especially in recent years, the improvement of the production level of emulsified asphalt has actively promoted the technological progress and promotion and application of emulsified asphalt. However, in the production and use of emulsified asphalt, undesirable phenomena such as crusting, flocculation, oil-water stratification, and agglomeration often occur, which brings unnecessary troubles to construction. To this end, the author conducted a large number of experimental studies from nine aspects, including emulsification equipment, emulsifier, base asphalt, pH value, temperature, storage temperature, mechanical action, freezing and melting, and long-term placement, and summarized the factors that affect the stability of emulsified asphalt. The analysis is as follows:

Emulsified asphalt equipment hot-melts basic colored asphalt and mechanically distributes tiny colored asphalt particles in an aqueous solution containing emulsifier to form a liquid colored asphalt material. The cement emulsified asphalt equipment mortar used in slab ballastless track construction uses cationic emulsified asphalt equipment. The purpose is to adjust the elasticity, toughness and durability of the cement emulsified asphalt equipment mortar. Polymers are often used to modify the asphalt.

The viscosity of the bitimen melter equipment decreases as the temperature increases during the production process. Its output viscosity is about twice as high as every 12°C increase. During production, the base bitimen melter equipment must first be heated to a liquid state and then emulsified. In order to better integrate the emulsification ability of colloid milling, the viscosity of base bitimen melter is generally controlled to be about 200 cst. The lower the temperature, the higher the viscosity, which increases the pressure on the bitimen melter pump and colloid milling, making emulsification impossible: However, on the other hand, in order to prevent the asphalt debarrel equipment from weaning when the moisture of th

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:

There are many ways to heat bitumen, including using fire source heating, electric heating, steam heating, hot water heating and indirect heating. Fire source heating generates heat by burning fuel to heat the bitumen to a molten state. Electric heating converts electrical energy into thermal energy through electric heating elements to heat the bitumen to a molten state. Steam heating transfers heat to bitumen through steam, heating the bitumen to a molten state. Hot water heating transfers heat to the bitumen through hot water, heating the bitumen to a molten state. Indirect heating transfers heat to the heating medium, which then transfers the heat to the bitumen to heat the bitumen to a molten state.

Bitumen emulsion equipment is widely used in new technologies and new processes for preventive maintenance. Bitumen emulsion plant is an emulsion at room temperature formed by dispersing bitumen into the water phase. It is a new material that is made of natural materials. It is different from traditional Compared with hot bitumen, it saves more than 50% of energy, saves 10%-20% of bitumen, and causes less pollution.

Based on the characteristics of the high-speed hot mixed bitumen melting equipment, the direct heating bitumen melter equipment tank is a researched, environmentally friendly and energy-saving thermal mixed bitumen melting equipment, which can directly coordinate the temperature of the direct heating bitumen melter heating tank and protect the direct heating asphalt melter equipment. Barrel heating tank. The temperature of hot mixed asphalt barrels achieves the appropriate storage temperature.
When the water level in the drum is lower than the temperature of the thermometer, please close the suction valve before the drum pump is shut down to prevent the drum from flowing back in the heater. After the motor has been running for 2 days, the three-way valve opens quickly.

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.

Asphalt spreading trucks are used to spread the permeable oil layer, waterproof layer and bonding layer of the bottom layer of asphalt pavement on high-grade highways. It can also be used in the construction of county and township-level highway asphalt roads that implement layered paving technology. It consists of a car chassis, an asphalt tank, an asphalt pumping and spraying system, a thermal oil heating system, a hydraulic system, a combustion system, a control system, a pneumatic system, and an operating platform.

The viscosity of the drum bitumen decanter equipment decreases as the temperature increases during the production process. Its output viscosity is about twice as high as every 12°C increase. During production, the base bitumen decanter equipment must first be heated to a liquid state and then emulsified. In order to better integrate the emulsification ability of colloid milling, the viscosity of base bitumen decanter is generally controlled to be about 200 cst. The lower the temperature, the higher the viscosity, which increases the pressure on the bitumen decanter pump and colloid milling, making emulsification impossible: However, on the other hand, in order to prevent the bitumen decanter equipment from weaning when the moisture of the finished product evaporates, it is impossible to heat the base asphalt barrel removal temperature too high, and generally use a colloid grinding inlet and outlet system. The finished product temperature should be below 85°C.

The container-type emulsified bitumen equipment hot-melts the base cold-mix colored bitumen and disperses it through the equipment into small cold-mix colored bitumen particles in an aqueous solution containing emulsifier to form a liquid cold-mix colored bitumen material.

Modified bitumen equipment uses modified bitumen colloid mill. Its blade has high hardness, high linear speed of the moving disk, and the gap can be adjusted to 0.15mm. It is suitable for processing various polymer-modified bitumens, such as SBS, PE, EVA, etc.

Asphalt mixing plant is one of the main equipment for producing asphalt concrete. It can mix asphalt, gravel, cement and other materials together in a certain proportion to obtain the products required for highway construction. In order to ensure its operating effect, the asphalt mixing station also needs to be powered on for trial operation before it is officially put into work.

Conventional pit repair techniques are mainly hot material repair and cold filling repair, and warm mixing technology is used to ensure compaction, while there are also some special repair methods such as slurry seal/micro-surface material repair

Modified asphalt equipment is a widely used asphalt equipment. Now its ultra-high performance has been widely praised by users. However, we must first use the modified asphalt equipment safely to fully demonstrate its performance. So how much do you know about the safe use and operation of modified asphalt equipment? Today, Sinoroader will explain it in detail:
1. 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 that the machine does not move around during operation.
2. Check regularly whether the mixer blades are deformed and whether the screws are loose.
3. Check 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.
4. Before powering on, check for empty vehicle trial operation, 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, stop the car for verification.
5. If the asphalt material is stopped for one hour after mixing, clean the mixing barrel, pour in clean water, and clean the mortar. Then drain the water, remember that there must be no water in the bucket to prevent the formula from changing, and even rust on the pages and other links. During use, everyone should pay attention to some small links to avoid unnecessary losses in their work.

In the asphalt-water system, the emulsifier molecules move between the asphalt and water interface, and the water-loving groups of the molecules are adsorbed on the surface of the asphalt, making it charged, while the hydrophilic groups enter the water phase. This connects the asphalt particles with water, reducing the interfacial tension between the two. At the same time, because the asphalt particles have the same charge and repel each other, they are prevented from agglomerating with each other, so that the asphalt emulsion can remain uniform and stable for a certain period of time. The nature of the charge is determined by the charge of the hydrophobic group or hydrocarbon chain of the emulsifier. If it is negatively charged, the asphalt particles are negatively charged, and the emulsion formed is an anionic asphalt emulsion. Otherwise, it is a cationic asphalt emulsion. If the asphalt particles have both negative and positive charges, the emulsion is a zwitterionic asphalt emulsion; in addition, there is also a non-ionic asphalt liquid.

To ensure good operation of asphalt melting equipment and extend its service life, regular maintenance and repairs are required. The following are specific maintenance and repair steps:
First, various parts of the equipment, including heating elements, pipes, valves, etc., need to be inspected regularly to make sure they are not worn or damaged. If any problems are found, they should be repaired or replaced immediately.

Synchronous sealing trucks play an important role in road maintenance. Daily maintenance of synchronous sealing trucks is an important part of ensuring the good operation of the equipment and extending its service life. Here are some common maintenance measures:

Stainless steel bitumen melters use bitumen concrete micro-powder machines. Its blade strength is high, the angular velocity of the moving disc is high, and the gap can be adjusted to 0.15mm. Stainless steel bitumen melters are suitable for the production and processing of various polymer bitumen concrete, such as SBS, PE, EVA, etc.
Stainless steel bitumen melters use independently developed special batching tanks, stainless steel bitumen melter force stirring devices, liquid level meter overflow prevention equipment, granular material dosage and equipment, liquid additive automatic addition equipment and other production key points. It ensures the full-position process guarantee for the stainless steel bitumen melter of the bitumen concrete production line. The stainless steel bitumen melter processing stainless steel bitumen melter rate is significantly increased, and the quality of stainless steel bitumen melters is greatly improved.

After the emulsified asphalt equipment has been used for a long time, it needs maintenance. There are several points to note when adjusting the emulsified asphalt equipment:
1. During use, regular maintenance should be carried out as appropriate according to the processing materials;
2. For the maintenance and use of the motor, please refer to the motor instruction manual;
3. Most of the random spare parts are national standard and department standard parts, which are purchased all over the country;
4. The colloid mill is a high-precision machine with a line speed of up to 20m/second and a very small grinding disc gap. After overhaul, the coaxiality error between the housing and the main shaft must be corrected with a dial indicator to ≤0.05mm;
5. When repairing the machine, it is not allowed to be directly knocked with an iron bell during the disassembly, reassembly and adjustment process. Use a wooden hammer or a wooden block to knock gently to avoid damaging the parts;
6. The seals of this machine are divided into static and dynamic seals. The static seal uses an O-type rubber ring and the dynamic seal uses a hard mechanical combined seal. If the hard sealing surface is scratched, it should be repaired by grinding on flat glass or flat castings immediately. The grinding material should be ≥200# silicon carbide grinding paste. If the seal is damaged or cracked seriously, please replace it immediately.

Friends who are ready to get started have a surprise today. The editor will give you a brief introduction on how to produce emulsified asphalt.

With the rapid development of highway construction and the increase in demand for asphalt, barreled bitumen has been widely used for its convenient transportation and easy storage. In particular, most of the high-performance imported bitumen used in high-grade highways is in barrel form, which requires an bitumen melter equipment with fast melting speed, clean debarreling, and prevention of asphalt aging.
The upper part of the debarreler of the bitumen melter equipment is hotter, and each barrel is directly heated by the heat transfer oil coil. The barrel wall directly bears the heat radiation of the heating coil. The asphalt is cleanly and sensitively debarreled, and there will be no waste of asphalt hanging barrels. According to the principle of layered heating, four-layer heating technology is adopted, with single inlet and single outlet of heat transfer oil, and high thermal efficiency of heating; at the same time, the waste heat of combustion exhaust gas is used for secondary heating, and power is effectively used; the debarreler body is insulated with high-quality rock wool material. It is suitable for various types of imported and domestic barrels, and the deformation of asphalt barrels will not affect production.

Fog seal is an asphalt pavement maintenance construction method.
When the asphalt pavement has increased water permeability, loss of fine aggregate, cracks, pitting, etc., a fog seal layer can be used for pavement repair. The bonding material of the fog seal layer is fluid, can repair cracks and gaps, and can heal cracks below 0.3. After construction, the oil content of the road surface is increased, the anti-sticking aggregate is loosened, and it can play a waterproof role.
Before construction, the original road surface should be surveyed and analyzed to determine the construction bonding materials and spray volume.
So what precautions should be taken during construction?

From three aspects, emulsion bitumen equipment has good economic performance:
First, energy saving. The kerosene or gasoline content in diluted asphalt can reach 50%, while the emulsion bitumen plant only contains 0-2%. This is a valuable saving behavior in the production and utilization of white fuel. By simply increasing the viscosity standard of asphalt by adding light oil solvent, asphalt can be poured and spread, and it is hoped that the light oil after use can evaporate into the atmosphere.
Second, versatility. There are many application methods for emulsion bitumen plants, and the appropriate method needs to be selected when applying it. The same emulsion can be used for large-scale sealing and can be used for small-scale pit repair work. Because they can be stored in tanks for a long time, they are very easy to use when applied in remote areas.
Third, it is easy to use. The professional spreading of emulsions requires professional equipment, such as spreaders. Small-area emulsion applications can be directly poured and spread by hand, such as small-area pit repair work, crack fillers, etc. Small quantities of cold mixes only require basic equipment.

The modified asphalt equipment estimates the quality and uniformity of various raw materials from the material pile and conveyor at any time. The modified asphalt equipment checks the soil and oversized gravel, and checks whether there is any leakage in the cold hopper. Estimate whether the mixed material is mixed evenly, whether there is white material, whether the oil-stone ratio is reasonable, and check the concrete segregation of the asphalt mixture and the mixed material.
The modified asphalt equipment checks the control parameters of various basic parameters of the mixing device in the control room, the display values ??of the control screen, and the modified asphalt equipment checks whether the data statistics and display values ??of the computer and printout are consistent. Test the raw material heating temperature and the mixed material entry temperature of the modified asphalt equipment.

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.
