Bitumen is a unique blend of hydrocarbons and their derivatives that are widely used in construction, from residential and industrial structures to highways and runways. While bitumen can be replaced with materials of similar composition, replacing it with something of similar cost is virtually impossible. Bitumen has been used in construction for centuries. During thisRead More
A number of presentations of GlobeCore products were made to representatives of the Bulgarian road construction industry from 18 to 24 October 2015. The events were held in Sofia, Plovdiv, Ruse, Blagoyevgrad and other important Bulgarian cities. GlobeCore representatives provided the attendees information on both the company and on the products such as bitumen emulsionRead More
In the first quarter of this year, GlоbeCоre announced the start of the production of new lines for peanut butter preparation. More than 4 million tons of peanut butter are produced in the world annually because of its high demand in the cooking and baking industries, cosmetology, confectionary and pharmaceutical industries. The xport and consumptionRead More
Water-bitumen emulsion is highly appreciated by building and road construction companies. This is due to its ease and safety of use in comparison with the mixtures based on solvents of and from petroleum products such as kerosene. As a rule, water-bitumen emulsion is obtained by blending liquid bitumen with water and special emulsifiers and acids.Read More
Chemical, food, construction and many other industries cannot do without the preparation of different suspensions, emulsions and colloid solutions. They include lubricating oil emulsions, fuel emulsions, polymer modified bitumen as well as a wide range of food fat emulsions. Additionally, many kinds of gels, creams, and pastes are included in this list, so the listRead More
GlobeCore is a leading manufacturer of high quality equipment used for regeneration, restoration and production of bitumen emulsions and all possible polymer-modified industrial liquids. GlobeCore equipment has enjoyed sustained demand in more than seventy countries around the world. Annually, GlobeCore produces several hundred units for emulsifying, dispersion, wet grinding and blending of solid and liquidRead More
Paint is a binder or a paste, dispersed in a dispersed medium. The production of paints and varnishes includes the following stages: 1. raw material purchasing; 2. raw material processing; (a) pre-mixing; (b) dispersion – blending of particles to the desired consistency of the product; (c) letdown stage; and 3. Packing. The most complex andRead More
As a rule, bitumen emulsion is made by colloid mills, but many industries apply other units that allow for dispersion. In colloid mills, the mixture of hot bitumen and water phase are passed between a rotor in full motion and a stationary stator. There are special claws and slots on the surface of the rotorRead More
The application of polymers makes original bitumen available for application under unfavourable climatic conditions and heavy loads. Often, the so-called SBS-polymers (styrene-butadiene-styrene) are used for bitumen modification. By its nature, they are caoutchouc (rubber). Interacting with bitumen, SBS-polymers increase their flexibility, elasticity and strength. Such polymers reduce the binder’s sensitivity to extreme temperatures and allowsRead More
Thanks to the combination of developments in acoustics, hydrodynamics and chemical kinetics, a new promising device is entering the market: the cavitation reactors, employed for processing of suspensions, emulsions and for intensification of chemical processes in solutions. These devices are can be used either separately (in laboratory test-benches) or in industrial mixing processes. In today’sRead More
