Anionic Bitumen Emulsion SS-1h is a specialized slow-setting emulsion with an anionic charge, offering unique characteristics that make it suitable for a wide range of applications. These emulsions are classified based on their breaking properties, with rapid-setting emulsions intended for surface dressing and medium to slow-setting emulsions suitable for blending with aggregates.
Rapid-setting emulsions are not suitable for mixing with aggregates, as they tend to solidify quickly, potentially causing equipment blockages. The selection of emulsion grade depends on the type of aggregate being used, with stone mixtures requiring medium-setting emulsions and sand mixtures requiring slower-breaking emulsions. Anionic emulsions primarily undergo breaking through the evaporation of water in the continuous phase, and their breaking behavior is influenced by temperature and humidity.
Anionic emulsions possess a negative charge, a common characteristic in many industrial coatings. When combined with cationic emulsions, they form a strong bond, resulting in a solid material. However, this property is not ideal for coating applications due to its inability to adhere effectively to substrates.
Anionic Bitumen Emulsion SS-1h is known for its slow-setting nature and anionic properties, ensuring stability during storage despite exposure to various shearing forces during production. This stability is achieved through the utilization of emulsion-conditioner compositions, typically including partially desulfonated lignosulfonate, anionic or nonionic emulsifying agents, and optionally a thickener.
The SS-1h emulsion comprises two phases: water and bitumen, which are inherently immiscible. Emulsifiers, typically alkaline salts with ammonium salts, are introduced into the water and bitumen mixture using high-speed mixing equipment under ISO conditions to produce bitumen SS-1h. The emulsifier content typically falls within the range of 3-5%, with a total water content ranging from 30-50%. The addition of emulsifier imparts anionic properties to the material, converting each bitumen particle into minute circular structures with sizes ranging from 0.001 to 0.01 mm, allowing them to remain suspended in water. The use of bitumen SS1 is environmentally friendly, as it does not involve flammable materials or kerosene, resulting in zero emissions during usage.
Applications of Anionic Bitumen Emulsion SS-1h:
Anionic Slow-Setting Bitumen Emulsion is a cold, non-fibered liquid waterproofing bitumen emulsion. This product is manufactured through a process involving bitumen, special emulsifiers, water, and other additives passed through a high shear rate colloid mill. The properties of the bitumen directly influence the emulsion’s specifications. SS-1h is specifically tailored for waterproofing applications in building construction, on concrete and metal surfaces. Its high flash point and low solvent content make SS-1h user-friendly and safe. You can apply SS-1h using various methods, including paint brushes, squeegees, airless sprayers, and rollers.
The specification for bitumen anionic emulsion SS-1h typically includes various parameters and characteristics that define its quality and suitability for specific applications. Here’s a general specification for SS-1h:
- Type: Anionic Slow-Setting Bitumen Emulsion (SS-1h)

- Emulsion Grade: SS-1h is typically classified as a slow-setting emulsion.
- Charge: Anionic, indicating a negative electrical charge.
- Stability: SS-1h is known for its stability during storage, even when exposed to shearing forces during production.
- Composition: It typically contains bitumen as the main component, emulsifying agents (anionic or nonionic), partially desulfonated lignosulfonate, and optionally a thickener.
- Particle Size: The emulsion typically contains bitumen particles with a size ranging from 0.001 to 0.01 mm (1 to 10 microns).
- Emulsifier Content: Usually falls within the range of 3-5% of the total emulsion composition.
- Water Content: Typically ranges from 30-50% of the total emulsion composition.
- Application: SS-1h is designed for waterproofing applications and is suitable for use in building construction, on concrete and metal surfaces.
- Flash Point: SS-1h typically has a high flash point, making it safe for handling and application.
- Solvent Content: It generally has a low solvent content, contributing to its safety and ease of use.
- Environmental Impact: SS-1h is considered environmentally friendly as it does not contain flammable materials or kerosene, resulting in zero emissions during usage.
- Application Methods: It can be applied using various methods, including paint brushes, squeegees, airless sprayers, and rollers.
