Description of Anionic Bitumen Emulsion HFMS-1

Anionic Bitumen Emulsion HFMS-1 falls into the category of anionic emulsions and is available in various grades, each distinguished by unique breaking characteristics. Rapid-setting emulsions are typically employed for surface dressing applications, whereas medium or slow-setting emulsions are utilized in mixtures, where they are blended with aggregates, either in concrete-type mixers or on-site. Rapid-setting emulsions are unsuitable for mixtures because they tend to solidify during the mixing process, potentially obstructing the mixer. Generally, when creating mixtures, the fineness of the aggregate used dictates the required setting time for the emulsion. As a result, stone mixtures generally require medium-setting emulsions, while sand mixtures necessitate slow-breaking emulsions. In the case of anionic emulsions, the breaking process primarily occurs through the evaporation of water in the emulsion’s continuous phase. Consequently, anionic emulsions are sensitive to temperature and humidity, which can influence their breaking properties.

Anionic emulsions carry a negative charge, a characteristic shared by many substances in the natural world. Extensive research and development, formulation, and laboratory testing have been conducted in the Industrial Coatings Industry to harness anionic systems for coatings. When an anionic emulsion is mixed with a cationic emulsion, a strong bond forms, resulting in the transformation of the substance into a solid. However, this outcome is not suitable for use as a coating because it cannot be applied to substrates.

Application of Anionic Bitumen Emulsion HFMS-1

Anionic Slow-Setting Bitumen Emulsion HFMS-1 is a cold, non-fiberated liquid applied waterproofing bitumen emulsion. The product is manufactured through a process in which bitumen, a special emulsifier, water, and other additives are processed using a high shear rate colloid mill. The properties of bitumen directly influence the emulsion’s specifications. HFMS-1 is specifically developed for waterproofing applications in buildings, as well as on concrete and metal surfaces. Its high flash point and low solvent content make HFMS-1 user-friendly and safe. HFMS-1 can be applied using various methods, including painting brushes, squeegees, airless spray, and rollers.

Anionic Bitumen Emulsion HFMS-1 is recommended for pre-mix carpet and patchwork applications.
