Overview

This document has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 336 "Bituminous binders", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. The responsible committee is Joint Working Committee NA 062-03-32 GA "NA 062/NABau/FGSV 7.2.0.1: Bitumen; Prüfverfahren und Anforderungen für die Bindemittel" ("NA 062/NABau/FGSV 7.2.0.1: Bitumen; test methods and specifications of binders") in the Materials Testing Standards Committee (NMP) and the Building and Civil Engineering Standards Committee (NABau). This European Standard specifies the requirements for performance characteristics of cationic bituminous emulsion classes which are suitable for use in the construction and maintenance of roads, airfields and other paved areas. This European Standard applies to emulsions of bitumen, or of fluxed bitumen, or of cut back bitumen and to emulsions of polymer modified bitumen, or of polymer modified fluxed bitumen, or of polymer modified cut-back bitumen, which also includes latex modified bituminous emulsions. Within Europe several types of cationic bituminous emulsions are used. Depending on traditional practices, different binder contents can be used for the same purpose. When designing a specification for a particular application, care should be taken to make class selections which are compatible and realistic.
