How do cold asphalts work for filling water-filled potholes?

[Charles123]

How do these new cold asphalts, that allow to repair potholes filled with water work? What chemistry/mechanism allows them to be so easy to manipulate at normal temperature and then rapidly solidify in a permanent road solution?

Wikipedia seems to have some insight on the process:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asphalt_concrete

Cold mix asphalt concrete is produced by emulsifying the asphalt in water with (essentially) soap prior to mixing with the aggregate. While in its emulsified state the asphalt is less viscous and the mixture is easy to work and compact. The emulsion will break after enough water evaporates and the cold mix will, ideally, take on the properties of cold HMAC. Cold mix is commonly used as a patching material and on lesser trafficked service roads.

Thank you for your answer. I have read the Wikipedia article. However I think that it refers to cold asphalt that is used for temporary solutions, and surely does not seem to work in potholes filled with water. I am referring to a new kind of cold asphalt, as shown in the following video - . It's easy to find different sites of different producers of this asphalt, but none that I found explains how it works.
