What is K1-70 Bitumen Emulsion?

Bitumen Emulsion K1-70 is a cationic, rapid-setting emulsion containing a minimum of 67–70% bitumen dispersed in water with emulsifying agents. Its higher viscosity and bitumen content, compared to K1-60, deliver superior binding strength and adhesion for demanding, high-traffic road construction, maintenance, and repair projects worldwide.

Bitumen Emulsion K1-70 is widely used for high-performance surface dressing, tack coats, and prime coats on high-traffic roads requiring superior binding strength. It also supports soil stabilization, pothole repair, and cold mix asphalt production, making it ideal for demanding road maintenance, construction, and repair projects worldwide.

Black Rock Bitumen supplies Bitumen Emulsion K1-70 manufactured to BS EN 13808 and MS 1.61 standards, ensuring consistent bitumen content, viscosity, and adhesion in every batch. Sourced from certified facilities and shipped through our Dubai logistics hub, our Bitumen Emulsion K1-70 delivers dependable, export-grade performance worldwide.

    Frequently Asked Questions.

    K1-70 is primarily used for tack coats, surface dressing, and patch repair works. Its cationic nature allows it to bond effectively with aggregates, especially in road construction and maintenance projects.

    "Cationic" means the bitumen particles carry a positive charge, which helps them adhere strongly to negatively charged aggregates like granite and basalt, ensuring faster breaking and better bonding.

    Yes. One of the advantages of K1-70 cationic emulsion is that it can be applied on slightly damp surfaces, making it suitable for use in humid or light-rain conditions where hot bitumen is not ideal.

    K1-70 (cationic) breaks faster and provides stronger adhesion compared to anionic emulsions, making it more suitable for modern road construction where quick setting and durability are required.

    K1-70 should be stored in sealed tanks or drums at temperatures between 5°C and 60°C, protected from frost and direct sun exposure. Avoid prolonged storage beyond 3 months, and gently agitate before use if any separation is observed. Never mix with anionic emulsions, as this causes instant breaking.

    Black Rock Bitumen supplies K1-70 in bulk tankers, IBC tanks, and new steel drums, depending on shipment volume and destination port requirements. Bulk tanker shipment is generally the most cost-effective option for large infrastructure projects.

    K1-70 typically has a shelf life of around 3 months from production when stored correctly in sealed containers away from extreme temperatures. Shelf life can shorten if exposed to freezing conditions or contamination.

    Yes. Every K1-70 shipment includes SGS or Bureau Veritas inspection along with a Certificate of Analysis (COA), confirming compliance with ASTM specifications before loading at Jebel Ali Port, UAE.
