Identification & Functionality
- Product Type
- Technologies
- Product Families
- Composition
Jennite AE 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 AE to the pavement is enhanced by multi-component surfactant formulation

- Features
Drying Time: When tested according to ASTM D2939, “set to touch” in 1 hour, exhibit “final set” in less than 8 hours
Non-Flammability: The cured coating shows no tendency to flash or ignite
Adhesion & Resistance to Water: The cured coating exhibits no penetration, blistering, loss of adhesion, nor tendency to re-emulsify after immersion for 24 hours
Environmental Considerations: Jennite AE is considered nonhazardous when tested according to the E.P.A.’s TCLP (Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure). Jennite AE is a water based material containing less than 10g/L (0.08 lbs./gal.) VOC content
Applications & Uses

- Basic Uses
Jennite AE extends the service life and reduces maintenance costs of off-street asphalt pavements. Jennite AE protects such pavements from the destructive effects of water, sunlight and oxidation. Jennite AE, when mixed and applied according to manufacturers recommendations, provides a distinctive new-looking surface that is skid resistant, longlasting and easy to clean.
- Preparatory Work
The asphalt surface must be structurally sound, surface cured, and free from all loose or foreign matter prior to the application of Jennite AE.
- Methods
Jennite AE 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 AE, 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.
- Mix Design
Mix Design: Jennite AE is intended to be mixed with water and mineral aggregate to form a ready-to-use pavement sealer.
Water (Per 100 Gallons of Genite A) 25 - 35 Gallons Sand (Per 100 Gallons of Genite A) 500 - 600 lbs Yield (Per 100 Gallons of Genite A) 148 - 157 Gallons All sand used should be clean, dry, pure silica sand, free of contaminants. Medium fine sand with an A.F.S. rating of 50 to 70 gives best results. There should be no more than 2% retained on 30 mesh or coarser, no more than 10% retained on 140 mesh and no more than 0.3% retained on 200 mesh.
- Application
pplication: For use over sound asphalt pavement, the following application procedures are recommended for best results:
Gal/Sq.Yard Gal/Sq. Ft Concentrate 0.1 0.011 Mix 0.15 - 0.16 0.016 - 0.017 Primer 0.15 0.0016 One gallon of concentrate will cover 90 square feet per coat. Multiply square yards of surface x 0.1 to determine gallons of concentrate per coat. Coverage rates can vary with the application method and the age, texture and porosity of the pavement to be sealed. For low to moderate traffic areas, follow Application Specifications NJS2 and apply Polyprime (Product Data Sheet 155) where recommended and two full sand slurry coats of Jennite AE. For high traffic areas, follow Application Specification NJ-S3 and apply one coat of Polyprime and three full sand slurry coats of Jennite AE. Each coat must be dry before additional applications. On a typical parking lot, a combination of application systems could be used. For example, two coats for the parking stalls and a third for the drive lanes where most of the wear occurs. Application must be made when ambient temperatures and pavement temperatures are above 50°F. Good drying conditions above 50°F are required during the subsequent 8 hours and no temperatures below 50°F should be anticipated for 48 hours. Night time application is not recommended. It is recommended that the area over which the application is made be opened to use only after trial shows it to be dried and sufficiently cured to accept regular traffic. Lower temperatures, high humidity, clouds or shade, and lack of air movement retard cure.
- Maintenance
As a rule, a clean, well-marked parking lot is safer and will last longer. Occasional flushing with water will help to retain an attractive appearance.
- Caution
Application of this product in marginal weather conditions or improper mix designs can result in premature wear or product failure.

Safety & Health
- Precautions
Do not apply Jennite AE over chip seals, or sealers which contain gilsonite. Jennite AE is not recommended for use on portland cement concrete. Keep out of reach of children. Container should be closed when not in use. Contains petroleum distillates. Avoid breathing vapor or prolonged contact with skin or eyes. Flush immediately with water. New asphalt should be allowed to cure for a minimum of 30 days prior to application and must not exhibit ribboning, crawling, nor show oil rings when 1 gal. of clean water is poured onto the surface. Protect wet Jennite AE pavement sealer at all times from freezing and rain.
