Bitumen emulsion consists of three basic ingredients: bitumen, water, and an emulsifying agent. Based on specifications it may contain other additives, such as stabilizers, coating improvers, anti-strips, or break control agents. It is well known that water and asphalt will not mix, except under carefully controlled conditions using highly specialized equipment and chemical additives.

There are 3 categories of Emulsion Bitumen:
1- Anionic with negatively charged globules
2- Cationic with positively charged globules
3-Non-ionic with neutral globules.
