Chemsol Prime Coat

Chemsol Prime Coat

Bitumen Emulsion Prime Coat
_______________________________________________________________________________
Product Description Chemsol Prime Coat is a single component, low viscosity
anionic asphaltic emulsion applied on a hard substrate.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Uses Chemsol Prime Coat is used as a primer to:
-- Coat and bond loose material particles on the surface of
the base.
-- Harden or toughen the base surface to provide a work
platform for construction equipment.
-- Plug capillary voids in the base course surface to prevent
migration of moisture.
-- Provide adhesion between the base course and succeeding
asphalt course.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Advantages --Easy to apply.
--Good penetration properties & plugs capillary pores.
--Binds the granular substrate.
--Treated surface become resistant to erosion by wind, water
or traffic.

Application Instructions
_______________________________________________________________________________
Substrate Quality Clean, sound and dry, homogeneous, free from grease, dust and
loose particles. Paint, laitance and other poorly adhering particles
must be removed. Standard construction rules must be observed.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Substrate Preparation All surfaces must be clean, sound, free from oil and grease and
properly cured. Remove all loose materials, dust and laitance
mechanically with a wire brush, or by grit blasting. Surface may
be dry or slightly damp, but must be free of any standing water.
It is advisable to mask off adjacent areas to prevent possible
discolouration.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Applications Substrate Temperature +5°C min. / +35°C max.
Conditions/ Ambient Temperature +5°C min. / +35°C max.
Laminations Substrate Humidity Maximum moisture content of substrate
should not be greater than 4%.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Application Method/ Tools Apply Chemsol Prime Coat evenly in a thin layer by brush,
roller or by sparying. When Chemsol Tack Coat is applied
directly on Chemsol Prime Coat, it should be applied after the
final setting of Chemsol Prime Coat. Asphalt concrete can be
laid directly on Chemsol Prime Coat after its initial setting.
