Treatment with hydraulic binders
Treatment of materials

In the presence of water, cements and hydraulic road binders (HRBs) give treated materials a permanent cohesion known as "hydraulic setting", the extent and quality of which depend on :

• the nature of the material processed ;

• the type of binder used ;

• the quantity of binder introduced into the mixture ;

• the amount of water required to hydrate the binder ;

• the quality of the ground material after processing;

• the compactness achieved during processing;

• the temperature of the medium and the age of the mixture....
