Protect Your Asphalt Pavements with Chem-Crete ASP

Addressing fuel spills, moisture infiltration and premature pavement failure—and reducing long-term maintenance costs in the process

Asphalt parking lots, streets, highways and taxiways crisscross the world, with asphalt considered among the top on-grade building components in the construction industry. Yet, like many building products, they are not without their life cycle issues. Inherent issues of oxidization, shrinkage, cracking, surface raveling and even rutting can and do occur. When faced with these pavement challenges, there is one process used more than any other—surface sealing.

Typical asphalt surface sealers and sealcoats coat the surface and eventually wear off, leaving your surface once again exposed to the elements that created your issues in the first place. Chem-Crete ASP^®, a silicone-modified asphalt sealer, is different. ASP bonds and integrates into your asphalt surface, creating a tenacious layer that rejuvenates and seals, while remaining pliable.

When applied on any asphalt surface, ASP creates an integrated hydrophobic surface that helps keep liquids, such as water and fuel, from entering the substrate. 

Key benefits

• Exceptional fuel resistance: Reduces gasoline penetration by up to 46% and diesel penetration by up to 69% compared with untreated surfaces.

• Deep penetration: Reaches up to 6.48 millimeters into the surface layer, reinforcing the zone most vulnerable to wear and chemical attack.

• Surface rehardening: Treated surfaces reharden after fuel exposure, maintaining their original structure and integrity.

• Moisture elimination: Keeps pavements internally dry, preventing water and vapor problems before they start.

• Enhanced structural integrity: Improves the stability and resistance to deformation of treated pavements.

• Ice buildup prevention: Creates a hydrophobic surface with positive water shear, helping limit ice formation and reducing reliance on deicing salts.

• Extended lifespan: Stabilizes and strengthens the upper pavement to prolong the life of your investment.

• Reduced maintenance costs: Cuts fuel-related damage, downtime and repair expenses over the life of the surface

Independent laboratory testing data confirms that ASP reduces fuel ingress and results in a surface that will reharden after saturation, enhancing the surface quality and drivability.
