BS group Bitumen Emulsion CSS-1 is cationic bitumen emulsion containing minimum 57% bitumen. It’s specially designed water based Bitumen Emulsion with low viscosity and extended setting time that makes it an ideal product for prime coating on high porous surfaces. It is dark brown in color and is a free flowing liquid at ambient temperature.
Prime coat SS-1K / CSS-1 is a low viscosity emulsion used mainly for prime coating in place of cutback asphalt. Prime coat SS-1K / CSS-1 bitumen emulsion is made according to Malaysian Standard, MS 1.61: 1994 Grade SS-1K.
Typical properties of CSS1
BS group asphalt emulsion CSS-1 is manufactured strictly as per ASTM D2397-13
AASHTO M208-16 or IS 8887: 2004.

Advantages
At the following you can find some advantages of this product:
- Environment friendly
- No heating requires, cost efficient
- Bound well with cool, damp surfaces
- High adhesive properties
- Low temperature curing
- Penetrate the cracks and impart strength to the layers
Applications
CSS-1 is an absorptive surface material (like low to medium high porosity wet mix macadam or water bound macadam), designed to penetrate, plug the capillary voids in the surface, bond and stabilize the existing surface and to promote adhesion between it and the construction course that follows. BS group Bitumen Emulsion CSS1 is ideally suited for Prime Coat application on high porous surfaces like WBM. It can also be used as Fog Seal Application.
For pavement bases and surfaces:
Plant mix (cold):
- with both dense-graded aggregate and sand
Mixed-in-place:
- Dense-graded aggregate
- Sand
- Sandy soil
- Slurry seal
Bituminous applications
- Fog Seal
- Prime coat-penetrable surface
- Tack coat
- Dust Binder
- Mulch Treatment
- Crack filler
Recommended rate of application
Asphalt Emulsion CSS1 ASTM is designed for use in slurry seals and for cold storable mixtures for patching. They are designed for soil stabilization and also suitable for use with cold recycling. These emulsions are tailor made as per quality of aggregates and local site conditions.
