    Cutback asphalt is manufactured by blending asphalt cement with petroleum solvents. There are three types of cutback asphalt - rapid-curing, medium-curing, and slow-curing - defined by the rate of evaporation of the solvent. Rapid-curing cutback asphalt is used for surface treatments and tack coats, while medium-curing is used for prime coats, surface treatments, and stockpile patching mixes. Emulsified asphalt, also called emulsion, is a mixture of asphalt cement, water, and an emulsifying agent that is liquid at ambient temperatures. Performance graded asphalt binders are specified using the Superpave system and

    Cutback Asphalt

    Cutback Asphalt is manufactured by blending asphalt cement with a


    petroleum solvent. There are three major types of Cutback Asphalt based on
    the relative rate of evaporation of the solvent: Rapid-Curing (RC), Medium-
    Curing (MC) and Slow-Curing (SC).

    Rapid-Curing Cutback Asphalt is used primarily for surface treatments and


    tack coat. Polymer Modified Rapid-Curing Cutback Asphalt is used only for
    surface treatments. Common grades of Rapid-Curing and Polymer Modified
    Rapid-Curing Cutbacks supplied by Jebro are listed below:
    • RC 800
    • RC 3000
    • RC 800R
    • RC 3000R

    Medium-Curing Cutback Asphalt is typically used for prime coat, surface


    treatments and stockpile patching mixes. Medium-Curing and Polymer
    Modified Medium-Curing Cutbacks that we typically supply are listed below.
    • MC 70
    • MC 800
    • MC 3000
    • MC 800R
    • MC 3000R

    Emulsified Asphalt
    Emulsified Asphalt (also simply called emulsion) is a mixture of asphalt
    cement, water and an emulsifying agent. Emulsion is made by combining
    these materials and passing them through a mill.

    Emulsions are liquid at ambient temperatures. They can be applied at cooler


    temperatures than asphalt cements and cutback asphalts.

    There are two major categories of emulsion: Cationic and Anionic. Anionic
    emulsions have negatively charged asphalt droplets and cationic emulsions
    have positively charged asphalt droplets.
    Anionic
    • AE-150S
    • AE-200S
    • HFE-150
    • HFE-300
    • HFE-1000
    • HFMS-2P
    • HFMS-2

    Cationic
    • CRS-2
    • CSS-1
    • CSS-1H

    Performance Graded Asphalt Binders


    Performance Graded Asphalt Binders are specified by the Superpave
    (Superior Performing Asphalt Pavements) System.

    A unique feature of the Superpave System is that the specifications are


    performance based. Performance Graded Asphalt Binders are selected to
    meet expected high and low temperature extremes with a certain level of
    reliability.

    An example of a PG Asphalt Binder is PG 64-28. The first two numbers (64)


    indicate that the binder meets high temperature physical properties up to 64
    degrees Celsius. The last two numbers (-28) indicate the binder meets low
    temperature physical properties down to -28 degrees Celsius.

    Following are some of the PG Asphalt Binders Jebro has supplied, along with
    grades which we expect to use in the Jebro marketing area.

    • PG 58-28
    • PG 58-34
    • PG 64-22
    • PG 64-28
    • PG 64-34
    • PG 70-28

    Jebro has extensive experience with PG classified asphalt binders. If you
