Trackcol Bitumen Emulsion SS1
Trackcol Emulsion SS1 stands out as a specially formulated oil-based bitumen emulsion featuring a reduced thickness, prolonged setting time, and compatibility with cement, making it an excellent choice for Prime Coat application. Displaying a black hue, this emulsion maintains its fluidity at room temperature. The manufacturing process of Trackcol Emulsion SS1 strictly adheres to the guidelines outlined in IS 8887:2004.
Typical Properties :
| Trackcol Emulsion SS1 | |
| 1. Residue on 600 Micron IS Sieve, %Max | 0.05 |
| 2. Viscosity @ 25 °C (Saybolt Viscometer), sec. | 20 - 100 |
| 3. Setting Time, Hrs | Less than 48 |
| 4. Binder Residue by Evaporation, % Min. | 50 |
| 5. Coagulation at Low Temperature | NIL |
Advantages
- Superior penetration into miniature pores of sub based
- Enhances structural strength by strongly binding loose aggregates
- Easy to apply and hassle free
- Prevent Revealing and Rutting
- Environment Friendly
Applications:
Trackcol Emulsion SS1 is ideally suited for Prime Coating on WMM/WBM surfaces and it has the ability to penetrate 8-10 mm deep into low porous WMM surface.
Precautions To Be Taken To Ensure Best Results While Using Emulsion:
Cationic Emulsion is very user friendly material. It helps in numerous ways viz. faster execution of work, economy, safety for workforce and environment protection. However, there are some precautions to be taken while using these materials, which are listed below:
DO'S
- Use at ambient temperature
- Roll the bitumen emulsion drums 5 times before using.
- Use Emulsion at temperatures above 5 °C
- Aggregate may be washed before use for superior results
- Store unused quantities of Emulsion in air tight/closed container for subsequent use
- Emulsion can be used on wet aggregates during rainy season
- PH Controlled water may be added to the Emulsion for dilution@1:1, if required, for better control on
- Spraying and penetration. Entire quantity of thus diluted Emulsion must be used immediately for Prime Coat operation only.
DON’TS
- Do not store packed/ bulk Emulsion in open container/tank
- Do not mix different type of Emulsion together
- Do not heat Emulsion even found thick in consistency
- Never use Emulsion when it is raining continuously
- Do not store any quantity of diluted Emulsion
- Do not fill loose earth in Poytoles before spraying Emulsion
- Do not spray Emulsion on a dusty surface
Recommended Rate Of Application
| Type of Surfaces | Viscosity of Primer @ 60 C (Centigrade) | Quantity in Kg/10sqm area |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Low Porous (WMM/WBM) | 30 - 60 | 6 to 9 |
| 2. Medium Porous (Cement Stabilized Soil Base) | 70 - 140 | 9 to 12 |
| 3. High Porous (Gravel Base) | 250 - 500 | 12 to 15 |
