#298E Elastomeric Asphalt Emulsion – 298E

#298E Elastomeric Asphalt Emulsion is an asphaltic bentonite clay emulsion modified with acrylic rubber to achieve a permanently elastomeric waterproofing compound and surface coating. When cured, #298E Elastomeric Asphalt Emulsion resists checking and cracking. The dry film remains flexible and will not sag, flow or re-emulsify. Special unblown soft asphalts help improve the weathering characteristics of #298E Elastomeric Asphalt Emulsion as well as enhance resistance to industrial pollutants, contaminants and corrosives. Premium acrylic rubbers increase the elongation of #298E Elastomeric Asphalt Emulsion and also give it greater adhesion and low temperature flexibility.

#298E Elastomeric Asphalt Emulsion may be used as a surface protectant or as a waterproofing compound using polyester and or fiberglass reinforcements. Applied as a roof protectant, Product

#298E’s unique formulation allows the film to “breathe” while drying and is waterproof upon curing. Roof surfaces protected or surface’s primed with #298E Elastomeric Asphalt Emulsion are especially suited for application of #525 Western Colloid SilverWhite Aluminum Reflective Coating.

#298E Elastomeric Asphalt Emulsion is water based and can be applied to most clean (dust and oil free) surfaces. It can be applied to dry or damp (not wet) surfaces using rollers, knotted brushes, squeegees or spray equipment.
