Features & Benefits

Industrial Additives Features
High Viscosity
Features
  • High emulsion viscosity: Emulsions prepared using IAM Cationic Surfactant have significantly higher viscosities, which allow specifications to be met at the minimum bitumen content
  • Low use level: 0.15-0.30% is normally sufficient for rapid-set emulsions
