Intro Bitumen emulsion is a mixture of bitumen, water, and an emulsifying agent used extensively in road construction and maintenance. These emulsions are classified as anionic or cationic, depending upon the type of emulsifying agent used, which dictates the electrical charge of the bitumen particles. The major differences between SS-1 and CSS-1 are based on […]
Description Slurry Seal systems (slurry seal and micro surfacing) are thin emulsion cold mixed overlays which are recognized as cost-effective restorative and preventive maintenance techniques for roadways of most traffic levels, airport runways and taxiways, highways, shoulders, sidewalks, foot and cycle paths, and parking lots. They may also be used as wearing courses on emulsion […]
Bitumen Emulsion for Chip Seal Bitumen Emulsion for Chip Seal provides a cost-effective solution to enhance road durability by protecting the surface and improving aggregate retention. With time, the asphalt surface of roads can deteriorate through erosion, raveling, loss of aggregate, honeycombing, and damage from sulphate attacks under various weather conditions such as frost, sunlight, […]
Emulsion for Sand Seal Description Economical and environmentally friendly, Bitumen Emulsion for Sand Seal protects the road surface more effectively than others, thus improving durability and extending pavement life. Damages in the form of erosion, raveling, aggregate loss, honeycombing, and sulphate attacks naturally start showing on the asphalt surface with time. The common causes of […]
Bitumen Emulsion in Road Construction Uses of Bitumen Emulsion in Prime and Tack Coat highlight the importance of the substance in road construction. A mixture of bitumen, water, and an emulsifying agent increases its effectiveness, ease of use, and cost efficiency. The emulsifier helps to disperse bitumen into small droplets, which allows its application in […]
what is Anionic Bitumen Emulsion RS-2? Anionic Bitumen Emulsion RS-2 is a specialized emulsion with unique properties suitable for various applications. It is classified based on breaking characteristics, with rapid-setting emulsions for surface dressing and medium or slow-setting emulsions for blending with aggregates. Rapid-setting emulsions are not suitable for mixing with aggregates due to their […]
What is Anionic Bitumen Emulsion RS-1? Anionic Bitumen Emulsion RS-1 is basically a water-based emulsion in which negatively charged (anionic) bitumen droplets are dispersed in water. This grade is an emulsion for rapid setting and hence it finds its application in surface treatments, such as tack coat and priming. RS-1 has excellent adhesion to non-alkaline […]
Description Of Bitumen Emulsion CSS-1 specially designed water-based Bitumen Emulsion with low viscosity and extended setting time makes it an ideal product for prime coating on highly porous surfaces. It is dark brown in color and is a free-flowing liquid at ambient temperature. Bitumen emulsion consists of three basic ingredients: bitumen, water, and an emulsifying […]
Description Anionic bitumen emulsion SS-1h is a slow-setting anionic asphalt emulsion (i.e., low reactivity) low viscosity and a hard asphalt residue that is designed for various paving and industrial uses. Asphalt emulsions are classified according to the electric charge that surrounds the emulsion’s asphalt particles (i.e. whether it is a cationic or an anionic emulsion) […]
