Acronal® NX 4627
Our solution for tack/bond coating
Acronal® NX 4627 is a very effective additive for bitumen emulsion seal, tack or bond coat formulations. Its use in bond (tack) coat formulations improves bonding of a new asphalt mix layer to the existing, underlaying layer. The use of Acronal® NX 4627 in these formulations can also assist in reducing vehicular “tracking” of the applied tack/bond coat just prior to the new pavement application. As a styrene acrylic resin that is stable in both anionic and cationic bitumen emulsions, it is also cement-stable.
Acronal® NX 4627 holds the bond coat in place and reduces tracking to a minimum. Results are also evident in our laboratory testing. As demonstrated above in side-by-side comparisons, bond coats modified with just 5% Acronal® NX 4627 show significant and early reduction of tracking in under 10 minutes compared to unmodified bond coats.
