THE PROBLEMS OF PRODUCING STABLE BITUMEN EMULSIONS

STABLE BITUMEN EMULSIONS ARE CURRENTLY PRODUCED IN THE GERMAN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC IN ANION-ACTIVE FORM. THE ARTICLE DEALS WITH PROBLEMS INVOLVED IN THE MANUFACTURE, USE AND TESTING OF STABLE BITUMEN EMULSIONS. SOME SPECIAL FIELDS OF APPLICATION ARE ALSO DISCUSSED. TESTS WERE CARRIED OUT TO DETERMINE THE SUITABILITY OF THE EMULSIONS FOR BITUMINOUS SLURRIES. DETAILS ARE GIVEN OF A NEW METHOD PRODUCING STABLE BITUMEN EMULSIONS WHICH INVOLVES THE USE OF A NEW TYPE OF EMULSIFIER WHICH ALSO FUNCTIONS AS A STABILIZER. THE EMULSIFIER IS A SYNTHETIC PRODUCT OF CONSISTENT QUALITY. /TRRL/
