Warm mix asphalt is paving mix that can be produced and compacted at lower temperatures than traditional hot mix asphalt materials for roadway development. This may result in reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) and asphalt emissions through lower operational temperature requirements at the plant and at the job site. PHALANX®, a specially engineered warm mix additive, is designed to improve compactability of hot asphalt mixes and Polymer Modified Bitumen (PMB) mixes. It helps reduce the paving temperature when laying down a roadway. PHALANX helps lower the carbon footprint, reduce energy consumption, and deliver overall cost savings.
The Role of Asphalt Additives in Roadway Paving
Asphalt continues as a cornerstone of road construction globally, with 90% of roads paved globally using asphalt. As infrastructure demands accelerate, environmental standards are also on the rise. However, traditional asphalt comprised of only bitumen and aggregate often falls short of modern expectations for performance, durability, and sustainability.   Asphalt additives are purpose-designed materials that can elevate pavement [...]
