Blackhawk™ 5900 Additive
Bituminous Compound Additive
| Blackhawk 5900 Additive is an oiled polymer additive designed to enhance the adhesion and tack properties of asphalt-based self-adhering membranes, self-adhering underlayments and waterproofing barriers, especially in lower temperatures. It remains liquid at ambient temperatures, and therefore can be easily pumped and blended with most types of molten bituminous compounds. |
Features
| • Increases adhesion in low temperature applications |
| • Extends shelf life of self-adhering membranes |
| • Minimal effect on softening point of the compound |
| • Easily pumped liquid at ambient temperatures |
| • Reduces viscosity of overall blend for ease of manufacture |
| • Minimal effect on penetration value |
| • Aids in film release at elevated material temperatures |
Uses
| • Self-adhered bituminous ice and water shield membrane additive |
| • Self-adhered below-grade bituminous membrane additive |
| • Self-adhered bituminous roofing underlayment additive |
| • Self-adhered bituminous waterproofing barrier additive |
