Emulsion Cationic – Slow Setting
Bitumen Emulsion Cationic Slow Setting CSS-1 and CSS-1H
Cationic Slow Setting Bitumen (CSS-1 and CSS-1H) is manufactured by dispersing fine bitumen particles in water with the help of positively charged emulsifying agents. The positive electrical charge allows the emulsion to bond effectively with negatively charged mineral aggregates, providing excellent adhesion, uniform coating, and reliable pavement performance.
Designed for applications requiring extended mixing time, Cationic Slow Setting Bitumen is widely used for slurry seals, cold mix asphalt, soil stabilization, tack coats, and other pavement maintenance works. Its controlled breaking characteristics improve workability while ensuring durable bonding and long-lasting road performance. Brazil Bitumen, by Tiger Bitumen, supplies premium CSS-1 and CSS-1H grades manufactured to international quality standards with dependable worldwide export and professional technical support.
HY International has the capability to Export and Supply the different Grades of Emulsion Bitumen Cationic Slow Setting CSS-1 and CSS-1H in compliance with National and International standards.

Emulsion Cationic – Slow Setting FAQs
Emulsion Cationic – Slow Setting is a bitumen emulsion in which bitumen droplets are dispersed in water with the help of a cationic emulsifying agent. Its slow-setting properties provide extended mixing time, making it ideal for slurry seals, micro surfacing, and other pavement preservation applications.
Cationic Slow Setting Emulsion is widely used for slurry sealing, micro surfacing, cold mix applications, soil stabilisation, and preventive road maintenance. It provides excellent workability and uniform distribution with fine aggregates.
The slow-setting formulation allows sufficient time for the emulsion to mix thoroughly with fine aggregates before breaking. This results in a uniform mixture, improved workability, and a durable pavement surface.
It helps seal surface voids, improves skid resistance, protects against water penetration, and extends pavement life by reducing surface wear and preventing early deterioration.
Yes. It is commonly used in preventive maintenance programmes to preserve existing pavements, reduce maintenance costs, and improve road performance before significant structural damage occurs.
Its key benefits include excellent workability, superior adhesion to aggregates, reduced material waste, improved moisture resistance, environmentally friendly application, and long-lasting pavement protection.
Yes. Cationic Slow Setting Emulsion is suitable for Brazilian highways, municipal roads, airport pavements, and infrastructure projects where efficient pavement preservation and reliable performance are required.
Yes. Since it is water-based, it generally requires less heating than conventional hot bitumen, helping reduce energy consumption, emissions, and environmental impact during application.
The product is available in bulk tankers, IBC containers, steel drums, or other export-grade packaging options depending on customer requirements and project specifications.
Tiger Bitumen supplies premium-quality Cationic Slow Setting Emulsion manufactured to international standards. We provide consistent quality, technical support, export-ready packaging, and reliable delivery solutions for customers throughout Brazil and global markets.
