Slurry Seal

A mixture of aggregates, water, CSS Bitumen Emulsion and filler (usually cement) that must be paved with special Slurry Seal paving machine. Slurry Seal not only fills the voids, but it helps the surface to be more resistant.

Slurry Seal applications and facts:

1- It fills the surface voids.

2- It covers potholes and cracks of the surface.

3- It fills the small cracks.

4- It improves fractures of the surface.

5- It improves the surfaces facing oxidation and coarse problems.

6- It delays potholes and cracks of the paved surface.

8- If the surface has fast growing cracks or big holes or the surface is completely damaged, we must not use this application.

9- Thickness of this Sealing is about 3 to 10 mm dependent on the place condition and after about 2 hours, traffic can pass on it.

10- It is better to apply Slurry Seal when the road surface temperature is at least 10°C and there isn’t any risk of freezing within the first 24 hours after implementation.

11-Slurry Seal’s life time is 3 to 5 years. Fast paving process, usage of less aggregates, high resistance to fracture, preventing height difference between road surface and shoulder of the road as well as notable cost reduction are other main advantages of this application.
