2. Sealcoat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealcoat

   Pavement sealcoat products come in a variety of standards. For example, refined tar-based sealer offers the best protecting against water penetration and chemical resistance. Asphalt-based sealer typically offers poor protection against environmental, chemical and harsher climates (salt water).

3. Chipseal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chipseal

   The introduction of polymer-modified bitumen and emulsion binder has increased chipseal's ability to prevent crack reflection and improve stone retention by improving the properties of the bitumen binder. Newer techniques use asphalt emulsion (a mixture of liquid asphalt, surfactant, and water) instead of asphalt. This has been shown to help ...

4. Cool pavement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cool_pavement

   These pavements utilize reflective aggregates, advanced binders, and specialized coatings to increase solar reflectivity for reduced heat absorption, leading to lower surface and ambient temperatures. [1] Common coatings used are clear resin, light-colored aggregates, and light-colored cement, all of which vary in their reflective abilities. [12]

5. Otta seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otta_seal

   Otta seal is formed by adding graded aggregate to a soft bituminous binding agent. The agent is usually emulsified asphalt.Bituminous binder application rates are between 1.9 liter/m 2 (0.42 US gallon/yard 2) and 2.4 liter/m 2 (0.53 US gallon/yard 2) – the value is dependent on aggregate gradation and type.

6. Wearing course - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wearing_course

   In flexible pavements, the upper layer consists of asphalt concrete, that is a construction aggregate with a bituminous binder. The wearing course is typically placed on the binder course which is then laid on the base course, which is normally placed on the subbase, which rests on the subgrade. There are various different types of flexible ...

7. Road surface marking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_surface_marking

   Thermoplastic coatings are generally homogeneous dry mixes of binder resins, plasticizers, glass beads (or other optics), pigments, and fillers. [14] Their use has increased over paints mainly due to the performance benefits of increased durability, retro-reflectivity, and a lack of VOC solvents.
