Bitumen cutback SC3000 is a slow curing cutback bitumen that contains 80% bitumen, is black in color and is manufactured strictly as per ASTM D 2026M-15 standard.
Application of Bitumen Cutback SC3000
Cutback agents are used to lower the viscosity of bitumen when it is applied as a primer to the surface of a road pavement aggregate base course or substrate. Kerosene is used as a bitumen cutback agent at different concentrations according to local conditions and requirements.
The cutback bitumen is ideal for prime coat and cold applied because of easy uses and no need to thinning and heating.
Cutback bitumen SC3000 consist of initial incorporation of asphalt into the surface of non-asphalt based course preparatory to any superimposed treatment of construction.
The cutback asphalt SC-3000 applying to waterproofing of surfaces plug capillary voids, coat and bond loose mineral particles.
