What is emulsified asphalt?

Asphalt must be liquified before it can be pumped through pipes, mixed with stone aggregates, or sprayed through nozzles. Heating is one way to liquify asphalt for construction purposes. But when asphalt cools, it becomes a semisolid material. There are other ways to liquify asphalt for construction operations. One way is to emulsify it with an emulsifying agent and water. In the emulsification process, warm asphalt is mechanically milled into very very small globules (5-10 microns and smaller) and dispersed into the water treated with emulsigying agent. The emulsifying agent keeps the asphalt globules apart from one another and suspended in the water which allows the asphalt to be used at room and cold temperatures. After the emulsified asphalt is sprayed onto a surface or mixed with aggregates the water evaporates and leaves only the asphalt residue behind to cement the aggregates together or waterproof the surface it was sprayed on.

What is the difference between hot asphalt and cold asphalt?

Hot mix asphalt is is heated for application, which thins the material. Remember those steaming metal buckets you used to see on industrial rooftops? Cold asphalt is liquified with something else besides heat. There are two kinds: Emulsified asphalt is mixed with water and an emulsifying agent. Think of it like salad dressing that does not separate in the bottle. The other kind is called Cutback asphalt and is mixed with a petroleum solvent such as naptha, gasoline, or kerosene. They both are liquids at ambient temperature when applied; then the solvent or water evaporates, leaving the asphalt behind. Look up at asphaltinstitute.org
