JENNITE®
Jennite is a premium quality pavement coating composed of refined coal tar that is fortified with rubber prior to emulsification. In addition, Jennite contains a unique surfactant formulation which allows greater compatibility with asphalt surfaces.

- Methods
Jennite can be applied by spray, rubber-bladed squeegee, brush, or mechanical equipment specifically designed for this purpose. Due to the heavy bodied nature of the slurry-mixed Jennite, application by means of specialized equipment is recommended. This equipment can be of two types, high volume positive displacement airless spray or mechanical squeegee. Both types must be capable of keeping material thoroughly mixed and homogenous throughout the application process. All equipment used must be capable of supplying a sufficient quantity of material for uniform application over the entire width of the application mechanism to provide a uniformly coated surface.
- PACKAGING
- Bulk shipments are made in tank trucks
- Available in 55 gal. steel drums
- Basic Uses
Jennite extends the service life and reduces maintenance costs of off-street asphalt pavements. Jennite protects such pavements from the destructive effects of water, sunlight and oxidation. Jennite, when mixed and applied according to manufacturers recommendations, provides a distinctive new-looking surface that is skid resistant, longlasting and easy to clean.
- Composition
Jennite is a concentrated, high solids, mineral colloid stabilized, polymer modified asphalt emulsion. It is fortified with fuel resistant, high molecular weight, unvulcanized rubber. This fuel resistant rubber is hot blended into an asphalt binder base prior to emulsification. The performance and bonding of Jennite to the pavement is enhanced by multi-component surfactant formulation
- Limitations
In the liquid state, Jennite must be protected from freezing. Do not store in direct sunlight or where temperatures exceed 120°F.
