Cutback Bitumen SC-3000 General Information
Cutback Bitumen SC-3000 is a medium-curing cutback asphalt, which consists of asphalt cement blended with a solvent or distillate, such as diesel, kerosene, or naphtha, to reduce its viscosity and make it easier to handle and apply at ambient temperatures.
This product is formulated to contain approximately 50-60% solvent by volume, making it a highly fluid, black, and sticky material derived from the refining of crude oil.
Cutback sc3000, like other cutback asphalts, is primarily used to penetrate and coat aggregate surfaces, improving their adhesion and preparing them for further treatments.
The solvent used in Cutback Bitumen SC-3000 is designed to evaporate at a slower rate compared to other cutback products, allowing for a longer working time and better penetration into the surface.
Slow Curing SC-3000 Uses:
- Road Construction: SC-3000 is extensively used in creating penetrating prime coats for road surfaces, including asphalt pavements.
- Patching Mixtures & Stockpile Materials: It is also used in producing patching mixtures and stockpile materials for road repairs.
- Protective Coating: SC-3000 can be applied as a protective coating for concrete and metal surfaces, enhancing durability and preventing corrosion.
- Waterproofing Agent: It is especially effective as a waterproofing agent for roofs and foundations, helping to plug capillary voids and bond loose mineral particles.
- Extended Working Time: The slow evaporation rate of the solvent provides more time for application, ensuring better penetration of the asphalt into the surface before the solvent evaporates, which is crucial for effective priming and surface bonding.
