Bitumen emulsion CSS1
Bitumen Emulsion CSS1 is an aqueous emulsion of three fundamental constituents: bitumen, water, and an emulsifying agent. The cationic emulsion is produced by blending hot bitumen with water in very precise proportions, aided by special equipment and chemical additives.
Cationic Bitumen Emulsion CSS-1 can be used in the following applications:
- Tack Coat: Ensures good bonding between bitumen layers.
- Fog Seal / Seal Coat: Forms a protective layer to extend the life of pavements.
- Prime Coat: Very good at penetrating porous surfaces.
- Dust Control: Used in dust suppression applications on unpaved roads.
- Cold Mix Asphalt: Enables the production of asphalt mixes without the need for heating.
- Slurry Seal: Used to rejuvenate and maintain existing pavements.
- Mulch Treatment: Used on newly seeded areas for stabilization.
- Crack Filler: Very good at sealing and filling cracks in pavements.
- Chip Seal and Surface Dressing: Surface sealing and maintenance.
Advantages:
- No Heating Required: CSS1 Bitumen Emulsion is not pre-heated, unlike traditional bitumen, so it saves energy and is simpler to apply.
- Environmentally Friendly: No hazardous hydrocarbon emissions, so it is safer for the environment and workers.
- Cold Application: Can be applied at ambient temperatures, so it can be applied in colder months or where heating facilities are limited.
- High Penetration and Spreading Capability: Low viscosity of the emulsion ensures better penetration and uniform spreading on aggregates.
- Moisture Tolerant: Can be applied on damp or slightly wet aggregates, enabling year-round application even in rainy seasons.
- Economic: Cost-effective option that eliminates the need to use expensive petroleum-based products or heating facilities.
- Wide Range of Applications: Perfect to use in a variety of applications, for example, prime coats, slurry seals, tack coats, and chip seals.
