Applications

STARBAS G is used for bituminous emulsions, for roads construction and maintenance and waterproofing of the structure.

Advantages

STARBAS G is an ecological emulsifier for rapid and medium setting emulsions production. STARBAS G should be dispersed in the water-phase batch tank at 35- 45°C and subsequently saponified with caustic soda.

Modality of Use

STARBAS G dosage varies according to applications and stability of bituminous emulsions. Normally the dosage varies from 0,15% to 0,45% of the final emulsion weight.
