    Recommendations

    Shell Mexphalte C P2 is a polymer modified synthetic binder that needs some precautions for
    storage and mixing as described below in this document.
    The choice of raw materials and possibly percentage of pigment will be based on the final
    desired colour. The use of 1% titanium oxide helps to obtain the natural colour of the aggregates.
    To maintain a uniform shade for each project, it is advisable to work with a homogenised
    product tank because slight variation in colour from one delivery to another may exist.
    The colour of the asphalt could develop over time for the following reasons: the manufacturing
    conditions at the mixing plant, climate condition during application and exposure to sunlight.
    Differing UV light intensity may cause the asphalt to whiten at different rates, colour difference
    will fade over time to become homogeneous after a few weeks.
    The asphalt production and application equipment must first be cleaned to avoid traces of black
    bitumen residues.
    It is not recommend using recycled fines, especially in the case of a fuel burner.
    Note: Wax based additives should not be used in combination with Shell Mexphalte CP2. Use
    of these additives in combination with Shell Mexphalte CP2 may result in poor asphalt
    behaviour.
    More details and recommendations are available from the Shell Bitumen technical department.

    Product availability
    Shell Mexphalte C P2 can be delivered in bulk and drums, depending the availability.

    Quality Assurance
    Shell Bitumen has an established quality assurance management system, which has been
    accredited with BS EN ISO 9001: 2000 certification (Certificate number FM 79367).
