Slurry seals are a mixture of bitumen emulsion, graded aggregates, mineral filler, water and other additives. The mixture is made and placed on a continuous basis using a travel paver (Slurry Surfacing Machine). The travel paver meters the mix components in a predetermined order into a pug mill. The typical mixing order is aggregate followed by cement, water, the additive and the emulsion. The resulting slurry material is a free flowing composite material that is spread via a spreader box over the existing road surface. The consistency of the slurry material allows it to spread over the pavement, wetting it, and forming an adhesive bond to the pavement. The slurry mixture contains bitumen emulsion that breaks onto the pavement surface through heterogeneous or homogenous flocculation. The bitumen particles coalesce into films, creating a cohesive mixture. The mixture then cures, by loss of water, into a hardwearing, dense-graded asphaltaggregate mixture that is bonded to the existing pavement.

HINCOL CRMB is based on unique technology that enables homogeneity, stability and consistent properties of binder throughout the supply chain. To achieve this, special stabilising additives are used and a special manufacturing process is adopted and the result is a high performance bituminous binder with unique properties that are consistent.The careful selection of additives greatly enhances binder performance, improving elasticity, reducing temperature susceptibility and improving adhesion. Our product range is particularly suited to heavy traffic locations such as highways, main roads, airfields, roundabouts and bus lanes. Typically we’ve developed products for a combination of the following needs:Superior Elastic Modulus of Hincol CRMB helps control deformation under high pavement temperature and heavy loading conditions.
