Kaltasphalt
Kaltasphalt, also known as cold asphalt, is a type of asphalt mixture that is produced and laid at ambient temperatures, typically below 40 degrees Celsius. Unlike hot asphalt, which is heated to high temperatures before application, cold asphalt is mixed and compacted at lower temperatures, making it a more environmentally friendly and energy-efficient option. This process reduces the emission of greenhouse gases and the energy consumption associated with heating the asphalt.
Cold asphalt is particularly suitable for applications where the ambient temperature is too low for hot asphalt
The production of cold asphalt involves the use of specialized equipment that can mix and compact the
Despite its advantages, cold asphalt may have some limitations compared to hot asphalt. It may require more
In summary, kaltasphalt is a sustainable and efficient alternative to hot asphalt, offering environmental benefits and
