Mix for asphalt concrete

Mineral powder is an important active structural component of asphalt concrete. Due to its developed surface area that adsorbs most of the bitumen, mineral powder imparts the necessary properties to asphalt concrete, namely mechanical strength and capacity for elastic and plastic deformations, which significantly improves the road surface quality, extends its service life, and provides substantial operational savings. The shelf life of mineral powder is unlimited.The production of mineral powder is based on crushing and finely grinding limestones and dolomites, as well as solid industrial waste. The primary application of mineral powder is the manufacture of artificial asphalt at asphalt concrete plants, where the mineral powder serves as a filler that increases the viscosity and binding capacity of bitumen.Thanks to its adsorbing surface, mineral powder absorbs a significant portion of petroleum bitumen, giving asphalt concrete the required characteristics: strength and deformation resistance. Due to this, the quality of the resulting asphalt concrete, and essentially the entire future road surface, increases significantly.
