A slurry consists of a mixture of crusher sand of varying grading, water, a little cement and stable grade bitumen emulsion. The prime function of a slurry seal is to fill the surface voids to prevent further deterioration due to loss of stone through traffic action, or by ingress of water into the base.<\/p>

A well-designed slurry has the following characteristics:<\/strong><\/p>

It has a relatively high bitumen content to enrich open weathered road surfaces<\/p>

It will not flush or bleed and possess good skid resistance<\/p>

It is easily applied<\/p>

Judicious use of a slurry means sound economy in maintenance work and new construction.<\/p>

Typical applications for slurry seal in maintenance work are:<\/strong><\/p>

Texture correction slurry \u2013 to render a uniform texture over a road surface with varying texture, before resealing with a chip seal.<\/p>

As a wearing course over aged, ravelled surface dressings.<\/p>

As a void filler in the Cape Seal application.<\/p>

As a stiffer, patching mix for repair of potholes, edge breaks etc.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Colmat Microsurfacing consists of selected crusher dust, Portland Cement, water and modified bitumen emulsion. The resultant mix has quick-set properties. Surfaces laid with Colmat\u00a0 microsurfacing can usually be trafficked within one to two hours after placing.\u00a0 The modifications made in the emulsion results in a stiffer, more flexible mix.\u00a0 Thicker layers can thus be placed with the Colmat microsurfcing system, with a reduced risk of deformation during high temperature conditions. The Colmat microsurfacing system is placed with a fleet of purpose designed machines.<\/p>

The crusher dust will have to be evaluated by the Colas Technical Department to ensure compatibility with the microsurfacing emulsion.<\/p>

Colas produce three types of microsurfacing systems.\u00a0 These are:<\/strong><\/p>

Colmat (suitable for placement of overlays)<\/p>

Colpave (designed for hand application)<\/p>

Colrut (designed to effectively fill longitudinal rut deformations on roads)<\/p>
