Asphalt Applications

REDICOTE® AP
Application Asphalt additive.

Advantages • Improved Emulsion Quality: Use of Redicote AP aids the


emulsification of difficult to emulsify asphalts. Particle size and
settlement are reduced, emulsion viscosity increased. Redicote AP is
suitable for both anionic and cationic emulsion formulations.
• Enhanced Adhesion: Redicote AP is an effective, heat stable and low
odor adhesion promoter for hot asphalt and also for cationic and
anionic emulsions.
• Slows Down Age-Hardening: Laboratory studies show that asphalts
treated with Redicote AP show less hardening in accelerated aging
tests.
