Advantages and limitations of using foamed bitumen
Foamed asphalt refers to a bituminous mixture of road-building aggregates and foamed bitumen, produced by a cold mix process. There are a lot of related issue that has not been sufficiently investigated so far.

Fatigue Life Comparison of Recycled Cold Mixes with Foamed Bitumen and with Bitumen Emulsion
Abstract The paper presents the results from the fatigue tests of recycled bases containing foamed bitumen and bitumen emulsion. The amount of bitumen used in both cases was 3% and 5%. For the production of the bitumen emulsion and foamed bitumen, 70/100 pen bitumen was used. Portland cement I 32,5R was applied as a binder. The binder comprised 3% of

Bitumen Foaming Optimisation Process on the Basis of Rheological Properties. [PDF]
This article discusses the results of bitumen foam properties optimisation with respect to three factors: air pressure, bitumen temperature and amount of water. The test materials were unmodified bitumen 50/70 and bitumen 50/70 modified with 2.5% synthetic wax. The experiment was designed according to the 3(3−1) fractional factorial design.
