Medium setting emulsions are designed to allow a moderate working time before the emulsion breaks and sets. They are commonly used in mixing applications where aggregates and emulsion are combined prior to placement, such as in open-graded mixes or cold recycling. The medium setting rate provides sufficient time for thorough mixing and proper coating of aggregates. These emulsions are suitable for maintenance tasks like patching, pothole repairs, and some types of cold mix asphalt, balancing workability with timely curing.
