To use bitumen available on the market (60-70 and 85-100, or loose, stiff, and mixed bitumens), it is removed from its solid state in three ways:
1 - Heating
2- Mixing with petroleum solvent
3- Emulsion process The problems and disadvantages of the first two methods led to the invention of the third method. Among these problems, the following can be mentioned: - Waste of petroleum solvents and national capital - High cost of petroleum solvents and fuel for heating - Environmental pollution and emission of hydrocarbons, especially in urban areas - Fire hazards - Need for mixers, machinery and fireproof equipment Therefore, the manufacture of emulsion bitumen eliminated the aforementioned disadvantages..
- Reasonable and cheap price
Easy to carry over long distances
Easy to carry over long distances
- No need for specialized machinery and ease of use
- Compatibility with environmental and human health indicators
- Lower building weight compared to traditional bitumen
- Powerful moisture insulation, a suitable alternative to Izogam primer
Using this product instead of traditional bitumen as an insulating primer not only speeds up the work, it also reduces the risk of burns and saves energy (gas) for heating.
