Anionic Emulsions – McAsphalt

Anionic Emulsions. There are three major classifications of emulsion grades: rapid-setting, medium-setting, and slow-setting. The terms "rapid," "medium," and "slow" relate to the amount of time it takes for the emulsion to cure and the amount of mixing that can be performed before the emulsion breaks.

Emulsified Asphalt SS-1 - Tack Coat - Walker Emulsions

SS-1 is an anionic slow setting asphalt emulsion primarily used as a tack coat - typically providing that "glue" to bond an existing base pavement layer to a newly applied layer. Ensuring emulsion sets before new layer is placed facilitates good bonding to prevent slippage which is crucial for the structural performance of the final pavement.

Guidelines for Using Geosynthetics with Hot-Mix Asphalt ...

The inspector should ensure the emulsion has not been diluted. When calculating tack coat shot rate, recall that emulsion is only about 65 percent asphalt, therefore, tack rate must be adjusted upward by dividing it by the asphalt content (percentage) of the emulsion: (e.g., emulsion shot rate = desired asphalt tack rate/0.65).
