Refined Tars

 

Overview
Koppers refined tars enhance the beauty and protection of existing asphalt parking lots and residential driveways. Various grades of refined tars are supplied to independent producers of protective coal tar seal-coatings for these maintenance applications.

Refined Tar is a complex mixture of high boiling organic compounds manufactured during the selective distillation of crude coke oven tar. Refined tars are processed into various specifications and are supplied as raw materials to independent manufacturers for a wide variety of end use applications.

The vast majority of refined tar is combined with clays, emulsifiers and water to form a weather protective and solvent resistant seal coating for bituminous pavement such as those found at airports, parking areas and driveways.

Koppers only manufactures the refined tar raw materials and supplies them to independent manufacturers. Koppers does not make a finished product from refined tar.
