Cutback bitumen RC800 is dissolved of bitumen in solvents of Naphtha. Petroleum solvents such as naphtha, kerosene, etc. are cutback agents which can reduce the viscosity of the bitumen. As well as improving the ability to coat aggregates.

 

Application of Bitumen Cutback RC800

Cutback bitumen RC800 consist of initial incorporation of asphalt into the surface of non-asphalt based course preparatory to any superimposed treatment of construction.

The cutback asphalt RC800 applying to waterproofing of surfaces, plug capillary voids, coat and bond loose mineral particles.
