Bitumen Cationic Emulsions

Bitumen Cationic Emulsions

Emulsions are mixtures of two immiscible liquids, such as oil and water, stabilized by an emulsifier.Bitumen Emulsion is a stable dispersion of very fine Bitumen droplets in continuous aqueous phase. Emulsions are two phase systems consisting of bitumen, water and one or more additives to assist in formation and stabilization and to modify the properties of the emulsion.
