Bitumen Emulsion CQS-1h

    Bitumen Emulsion CQS-1h


    Introduction of bitumen emulsion CQS-1h

    BACCO Bitumen Emulsion CQS-1h is a cationic asphalt emulsion designed for use in slurry seals and micro-surfacing projects. BACCO asphalt emulsions CQS-1h has a minimum 62% bitumen and it is chocolate brown in color and is a free-flowing liquid at ambient temperature.

    The slurry seal process mixes the emulsion, aggregate, and additives in a specially designed machine, which also places the mixture. The cationic emulsion is a chemically stabilized system, so care should be taken not to upset the chemical balance with contamination by chemicals, over-exposure to air, or adverse mechanical or thermal conditions.

     

    Typical properties of CQS-1h

    BACCO asphalt emulsion CQS-1h is manufactured strictly as per ASTM D2397-13
    AASHTO M208-16.

    Applications

    BACCO Bitumen Emulsion CQS-1h is recommended to be used for micro surfacing applications and is tailor-made as per design and quality of site aggregates. Also, CQS-1h is used in slurry mixtures for slurry paving projects and ready slurry mix in drum.

    Asphalt Emulsion CQS-1h is a Latex Modified Emulsion and can also be used for Crack Seal / Fog Seal applications.

     

     Recommended rate of application

    The typical rate of application of BACCO Bitumen Emulsion CQS-1h for micro-surfacing and slurry seal is between 8 -10 % by weight of aggregates.

     

    To ensure the best results

    ·        Use without diluting Bitumen Emulsion with any solvent or water

    ·        Use at ambient temperature

    ·        Roll the Bitumen Emulsion drums 5 times before using

     

     

    Handling and safety

    ·        Contains petroleum distillate; flammable: keep away from open fire, sparks, or other ignition sources; wear protective clothing, gloves, and goggles.

    ·        Fire flammable when wet, flash point 40°C.

    ·        Skin –avoid repeated or prolonged contact, if this occurs remove with hand cleaner that removes oil or grease, then clean with soap and water.
