BITUMEN MC30 MC70 RC70

What is cutback bitumen?

Cutback bitumen is a type of bituminous binder like bitumen MC30 MC70 MC250 MC3000 RC70 that is produced by blending bitumen with a petroleum solvent to reduce its viscosity and improve its workability. The solvent used in cutback bitumen is typically a light hydrocarbon such as gasoline or kerosene.

Liquid bitumen

The production of cutback bitumen involves heating the bitumen to a high temperature and then adding the solvent to the heated bitumen in a controlled manner. The resulting mixture is a liquid that can be applied easily to various surfaces using standard application equipment.

Prime coat and tak coat

Cutback bitumen is commonly used in road construction and maintenance applications, particularly in areas where it may not be practical to use hot mix asphalt (HMA) due to environmental or logistical constraints. It is typically used for applications such as prime coats, tack coats, and surface treatments.

Curing time of bitumen

There are different types of cutback bitumen, classified according to the viscosity of the binder after the solvent has evaporated. These include rapid-curing (RC), medium-curing (MC), and slow-curing (SC) cutback bitumen, with the different types having different curing times and properties.

Use in road payment

Therefor, cutback bitumen is a versatile and cost-effective product that offers a range of benefits for various road construction and maintenance applications. Its use can help to ensure the long-term performance and durability of road pavements and reduce the need for costly maintenance and repairs. However, it is important to use cutback bitumen in a manner that is safe for the environment and human health, and to comply with local regulations and guidelines for its use.

General description of cutback asphalt MC 30

Bitumen MC30 is a type of medium-curing cutback bitumen, which is a bituminous binder produced by blending bitumen with a petroleum solvent to reduce its viscosity and improve its workability. The “MC” designation refers to the medium-curing nature of the cutback bitumen, which means that the solvent will evaporate at a moderate rate after application.

Bitumen MC30 in asphalt layer

Bitumen MC30 is typically used as a prime coat or a tack coat in road construction and maintenance applications. As a prime coat, it is applied to a base course or an unbound granular material to promote adhesion with the subsequent asphalt layer. As a tack coat, it is applied to an existing asphalt layer to promote adhesion with a new asphalt layer.

Bitumen MC30 is also used as a surface treatment to protect and extend the life of existing asphalt surfaces. It can be sprayed onto the surface of the pavement to seal cracks and prevent water from penetrating the pavement, which can cause damage and deterioration over time.

However, it is important to use cutback bitumen in a manner that is safe for the environment and human health, and to comply with local regulations and guidelines for its use.

Solvent of MC30

Cutback bitumen MC30 is dissolved of bitumen in solvents of kerosene. In many countries kerosene and other volatile petroleum derived products are added as a cutter or cutback agent to bitumen to reduce (or cutback) the viscosity of the bitumen. The mixture obtained may be called cutback bitumen.

The reduction in viscosity of the bitumen aids the construction of seal coats in road pavements as the softened mixture wets the chips more easily. The cutback agent evaporates from the seal coat, the cutback agent becoming a negligible component of the seal coat a few months after application. If significant amounts of the cutback agent remain in the seal coat an unwanted long term softening effect may result.

Uses of cut back asphalt MC30

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.

Cold applied bitumen

The cutback bitumen is ideal for prime coat and cold applied because of easy uses and no need to thinning and heating.
