About aspha-min® Additive for WMA/HMA

aspha-min® is a finely granulated, synthetic zeolite-based additive for the production of warm or hot mix asphalt. In warm mix asphalt (WMA), aspha-min® reduces both mixing and laying temperatures for substantially lower emissions. In hot mix asphalt (HMA), it extends or enhances the compactability for an ease of compaction with manual laying or under adverse weather conditions.

Applications

Reduced mixing and laying temperatures or improved workability in hot mix asphalt: aspha-min® helps to handle challenges in asphalt road construction.

Dosage Forms

Meltable bags, big bags or bulk in silo trucks: aspha-min® can be supplied in a variety of ways – for a maximum in flexibility in its daily use.

30
Years of Experience

aspha-min® has a proven track record. It stands for sustainability and quality in asphalt road construction as it does not affect the asphalt's performance, characteristics or recyclability.

When and how to use aspha-min Applications

aspha-min® addresses a broad spectrum of challenges encountered in today's asphalt paving industry.

Virtue

aspha-min® is a finely granulated additive for the use in asphalt mix. As a synthetic zeolite, it contains water of crystallization, which is gradually released when heated. The process creates micropores in the binder in order to temporarily increase its volume and reduce its viscosity for improved workability - even at lower temperatures.

Occupational safety and environmental protection during asphalt laying

The use of aspha-min® significantly reduces emissions of vapors, aerosols and odour. During field trials, a decrease of the mixing temperature by 26°C led to a 74% reduction in emissions of ultra-fine particles.
