Warm-mix asphalt thanks to Aquatan AT-700

Aquatan AT-700 is a granulated, free-flowing zeolite for the production of asphalt at specifically reduced temperatures . When used at conventional production temperatures, Aquatan AT-700 acts as a mineral viscosity-modifying additive, reducing the viscosity of hot-mix asphalt and thus improving its workability.

 

Temperature-reduced asphalt offers numerous advantages for construction companies, the environment , and employees . The reduced processing temperature not only lowers energy costs but also significantly reduces emissions and aerosols – an important contribution to improved occupational health and safety.

 

At the same time, the reduced energy consumption sustainably improves the ecological footprint. The gentler processing also leads to reduced bitumen aging, which has a positive effect on the load-bearing capacity and deformation behavior of the finished asphalt. Machines also benefit: wear and tear are minimized , thus increasing the service life of the equipment.

 

Aquatan AT-700 thus combines economy, safety and environmental awareness in a future-oriented construction method.
