2. Bitumen - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitumen

   Cold-mixed asphalt can also be made from bitumen emulsion to create pavements similar to hot-mixed asphalt, several inches in depth, and bitumen emulsions are also blended into recycled hot-mix asphalt to create low-cost pavements. Bitumen emulsion based techniques are known to be useful for all classes of roads, their use may also be possible ...

3. Sealcoat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealcoat

   Petroleum-based sealer falls between refined tar and asphalt. There are concerns about pavement sealer polluting the environment after it is abraded from the surface of the pavement. Some states in North America have banned the use of coal tar–based sealants primarily based on United States Geological Survey studies. [1]

4. Chipseal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chipseal

   The introduction of polymer-modified bitumen and emulsion binder has increased chipseal's ability to prevent crack reflection and improve stone retention by improving the properties of the bitumen binder. Newer techniques use asphalt emulsion (a mixture of liquid asphalt, surfactant, and water) instead of asphalt. This has been shown to help ...

5. Permeable paving - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeable_paving

   Permeable pavement surfaces may be composed of; pervious concrete, porous asphalt, paving stones, or interlocking pavers. [1] Unlike traditional impervious paving materials such as concrete and asphalt, permeable paving systems allow stormwater to percolate and infiltrate through the pavement and into the aggregate layers and/or soil below. In ...
