paving. Asphalt in thin films is an adhesive, but asphalt in thick films may act as a lubricant. A prime coat should not be applied until all specified weather and temperature requirements can be met. In some cases it may be desirable to establish a guideline for the distributor operator to drive by for the first pass.

Dilution. Sometimes emulsified asphalt tack coats are diluted with water to increase the total volume of liquid while maintaining the same volume of asphalt binder within the emulsion. This can help achieve a more uniform application without applying excessive amounts of asphalt binder. Dilution should be avoided if possible due to the various problems that can result from improper dilution (e ...

Tack Coat. How Tack Coat Improves Your Asphalt Paving. Inexpensive tack coat can significantly improve the bond between pavement layers, improving pavement strength, reducing surface-course sliding and reducing top-down cracking. Application of tack coat to an existing pavement surface is so simple and inexpensive that its real importance is often overlooked.

A tack or bond coat is an application of emulsion or asphalt binder that is sprayed onto the roadway surface immediately prior to a paving operation. The adhesion of multiple lifts of pavement provides for maximum structural coefficient and ensures the safety and longevity of the pavement structure.

Tack Coat. The layer between Asphalt Base Course (ABC) and Asphalt Wearing Course (AWC) is called Tack Coat. Tack Coat is also applied between the concrete deck slab of bridges and AWC laid over it, or concrete slab of Rigid Pavement on which AWC is to be laid. The purpose of Tack Coat is to form a bond between AWC and ABC (or concrete slab).

SS1-h Tack Coat is an anionic slow set asphalt emulsion. For full depth asphalt repair, SS1-h improves the bond between the asphalt patch and the vertical edges of the existing asphalt pavement. For overlay or surface patching, SS1-h improves the bond between the existing asphalt surface and the new asphalt mat. Applied prior
