Description

BOND COAT 3 represents a major step forward in the provision of high performance heat-activated tack/bond coats, providing adhesion between the ELIMINATOR®  bridge deck waterproofing membrane and a wide range of asphalt surfacing mix designs. It is based on GCP Applied Technologies’ unique ESSELAC®  advanced resin technology and extensive experience in the development of high performance bond/tack coats.

Uses

BOND COAT 3 is applied on to the ELIMINATOR®  membrane to provide a strong bond between the membrane and subsequent bituminous surfacing. It is suitable for use with most types of hot-applied bituminous road surfacing including those where the bitumen content in the surfacing specification is low and/or where the surfacing layer is thin.

Features

• Suitable for a wide range of asphalt specifications including ‘high stress’ sites providing an excellent bond between ELIMINATOR®  and asphalt pavements
• Exceeds the enhanced adhesion requirements as specified in Highways Agency IAN96/07 Rev. 1
• Approved for use with the Eliminator bridge deck waterproofing membrane by: EOTA – ETA No.15/0362, Liquid Applied Bridge Deck Waterproofing, ETAG 033. British Board of Agreement (UK) – HAPAS Certificates No.11/H169, 11/H170, for Highways England road bridges.
• Pigmented for ease and efficiency of application
• Cold-applied – faster to apply and no hot works permits required
• Rapid cure – surfacing works can commence one hour after application
• Tack free finish; easily cleaned and resistant to tyre pick-up and damage from trafficking
• High bond values allow a reduction in asphalt thickness reducing carbon emissions during manufacture, transportation and laying
• Reduced asphalt thickness can extend the life of the bridge by reducing the dead load
