A tack for the battle

In order to combat against pavement deterioration, a strong bond coat can be used. A strong adhesive bond that will prevent slippage between an existing pavement and a new overlay is produced by an emulsified asphalt "tack" or bond coat. The loss of the bond between two layers of asphalt pavement can be the cause of many premature pavement failures. Various methods and types of bonding are presented here.
