DESCRIPTION:
RoadChem 706®
is a fatty tetarmine formulated as a coemulsifier and stabiliser for cationic
microsurfaciung and quick set emulsions. It is particularly useful for improving
the coating, mixing and emulsion stability properties of microsurfacing emulsions.
It may also be used in CMS or CSS emulsions.
BENEFITS:
- Stability
- Easy to handle and transport
- Wide range of compatibility
with primray emulsifiers.
- Used as a mix time extender
in slurry and will not affect the cure time
- May be used in mixing
grade emulsions
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES:
Pour Point: (C) 18C
Flash Point (Closed Cup): >60C
Appearance: paste
SG: 25C 1.0 kg/lt approx
Storage Life: Min
12 months in drums or bulk. (10C-50C in covered area in sealed drums).
APPLICATION:
Emulsion Manufacture:
RoadChem 706® should be kept at 60C or higher prior to use for pumping.
It should not be stored at above 80C. It should be kept away from water contamination.
RoadChem 706® is added directly to the soap solution.
TYPICAL FORMULATION:
All formulations should be tested in the laboratory before use.
Co emulsifier for CRS, CMS
or CSS:
Replace one third to half the emulsifier load, Ensure pH is in the required
range for the primary emulsifier, Stabiliser:
Add 0.2-0.5% to the soap solution (based on total emulsion) Ensure pH is adjusted
for the primary emulsifier.
Slurry Seal Quick Set
Mixing Aid:
Add to either the soap solution or in prewet water at 0.2-0.5% based on emulsion.
NOTES:
Note also that slurry and microsurfacing emulsions must be designed relatively
to the mixture. That is a full ISSA mixture design must be done to verify performance.
Notes:
1. Prolonged exposure of RoadChem 706® to moisture or carbon dioxide
will reduce its activity. As far as possible keep away from water contamination.
2. Latex should be co-milled into the emulsion for the best dispersion, emulsion
stability and control of the final properties of the slurry. Latex may be post
added or added into the soap if no co milling is not availab1e.
SAFETY:
Contains alkaline corrosive materials. Will cause eye and skin irritation if
significant contact is made. Use goggles, gloves and protective clothing when
handling. Refer to the MSDS for further information.
