Hi Fix® emulsion RS 1 is a product manufactured out of bitumen dispersed into the water in form of fine globules(micro size) by means of an emulsifying agent. The later acts to decrease interfacial stress between the bitumen and water thus preventing their breakage during normal condition of storage. This type of emulsion carry positive charges and is very much suitable for negatively charged aggregates exclusively and abundantly available in our country. These positively charged emulsion after getting in touch with the negatively charged aggregates deposes bitumen particles on the aggregates while water gets evaporated. This emulsion with low viscosity and fast setting time is an ideal product for spray application. Hi Hi Fix® RS 1 is manufactured strictly as per IS: 8887:2004 and ASTMD : 2397 and quantity consciousness is maintained at all levels of manufacture.
