Regenerating additives

iCold ACF is a next-generation additive used in cold applications that restores oxidized bitumen and allows for the creation of new asphalt concrete pavement using 100% reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) on-site or in a mixing plant.
iCold ACF consists of various chemical components, each of which has a specific function in relation to oxidized bitumen: antioxidant, plasticizer, regenerating agent, wetting agent, thinning agent, and dispersing agent. The use of iCold ACF has the following positive impacts:
● Cost Savings: The use of recycled materials reduces the need for virgin aggregates and bitumen, leading to lower material costs.
● Sustainability: Utilizing recycled materials contributes to environmental sustainability by reducing waste in landfills and conserving natural resources. It aligns with green construction practices.

iDOP ACF is a functional liquid admixture specifically formulated to enhance hot bituminous mixtures containing a high rate (up to 50%) of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP). Its special formulation includes regenerators, plasticizers, and adhesion activators that improve the compaction of bitumen mixes and restore most of the original characteristics of oxidized bitumen.
Using RAP with iDOP ACF in construction offers several environmental benefits:
● Cost Savings: The use of recycled materials reduces the need for virgin aggregates and bitumen, leading to lower material costs. This is especially beneficial in large-scale projects.
● Waste Reduction: Incorporating RAP helps divert large quantities of asphalt from landfills, reducing waste and promoting recycling practices. This is particularly important, as asphalt is one of the most recycled materials in the world.
● Conservation of Natural Resources: By using RAP, the demand for virgin materials such as aggregates and new asphalt binder is decreased. This conserves natural resources and reduces the environmental impact associated with the extraction and processing of these materials.
● Improved Sustainability: Incorporating recycled materials like RAP into new hot asphalt mixes aligns with sustainable construction practices and promotes a circular economy, where materials are reused and recycled rather than discarded.
