ASPHALT ADDITIVES MARKET - GLOBAL INDUSTRY INSIGHTS, TRENDS, OUTLOOK, AND OPPORTUNITY ANALYSIS, 2016–2024

Asphalt additives are materials that enhance the adhesive force between aggregates and asphalt cements. They are also used for improving pavement performance through reduced moisture-induced damage and pavement rutting. Hot mix asphalt is a mixture of approximately 95% stone, sand bound together with the help of asphalt cement. The asphalt cement used for binding is a heated aggregate, combined, and mixed with the aggregate at a hot mix asphalt facility.

Cold mix asphalt is manufactured by adding a special category of emulsified asphalt with aggregates. The emulsion used reduces the viscosity of the asphalt, thus making it workable even at cold temperatures. Cold mix asphalt is premixed and stored for a long duration, thus making it an ideal product for road repairs and various other low-volume uses and is mixed and applied at lower temperatures as compared to conventional hot mix. Cold mix asphalt also has various environmental benefits such as low-temperature mixing resulting in reduced fuel consumption and resulting fumes. The production of cold mix asphalt is relatively eco-friendly, with very low associated emissions.
