Introduction of bitumen emulsion CSS-1h
BACCO bitumen emulsion CSS-1h is a cationic slow-setting bitumen emulsion that contains 57% bitumen. Emulsified asphalt CSS-1h is a specially designed water-based Bitumen Emulsion with low viscosity and extended setting time that makes it an ideal product for prime coating on highly porous surfaces. It is chocolate brown in color and is a free-flowing liquid at ambient temperature.
Typical properties of CSS-1h
BACCO asphalt emulsion CSS-1h is manufactured strictly as per ASTM D2397-13
AASHTO M208-16 or IS 8887: 2004.
