Bitumen Emulsion K3

Bitumen Emulsion K3 are cold applied, liquid bitumen emulsions, used in the construction and repair of pavements, driveways, roads, and highways.

Bitumen Emulsion K3 is a cationic (slow setting) road emulsion that contains 56% bitumen, is black in color and is manufactured strictly as per KS 02-769: 1990 standard.

 

Application of Bitumen Emulsion K3

Bitumen Emulsion K3 is in road pavement bases and surfaces projects as:

    Plant mix (cold) with both dense-graded aggregate and sand

    Mixed-in-place with dense-graded aggregate

    Slurry seal
