To retain its compaction properties between the asphalt plant and being laid on the road, the asphalt mix cannot be too hot or too cold. Its temperature has to be just right. “Temperature is the key,” said Jim Scherocman, a Cincinnati-based asphalt consultant with 54 years experience in the business.

An essential part of asphalt is its binder bitumen. Bitumen itself is a very temperature dependant material and only with the help of this a good road quality can be achieved. One of the main reasons why it is that important to take care of the asphalt material temperature.

The mix temperature affects the viscosity of the asphalt binder, which in turn determines the ability of the mixture to be compacted. The hotter the mix during compaction the more fluid the asphalt binder and the less resistant the mix is to compaction.
