Cutback Bitumen RC-800

Cutback Bitumen Rapid Curing 800 (RC-800) is a type of cutback bitumen that is blended with a fast-evaporating petroleum solvent, which reduces its viscosity for easier application. Cutback Bitumen RC-800’s combination of moderate viscosity and rapid curing capabilities makes it ideal for various road construction and maintenance projects where durability and quick application are essential.

Main Applications Of Cutback Bitumen RC-800

The main applications of Cutback Bitumen Rapid Curing 800 (RC-800) include:

  1. Prime Coating: Cutback Bitumen RC-800 is used as a prime coat on granular or unbound surfaces, enhancing adhesion for asphalt layers.
  2. Surface Dressing: It is applied in surface dressing to create a durable layer by spraying it on roads and covering it with aggregate.
  3. Cold Mix Asphalt: Cutback Bitumen RC-800 is utilized for repairing potholes and surface defects in cold mix asphalt, providing a quick-setting solution.
  4. Crack Sealing: Cutback Bitumen RC-800 effectively seals cracks in pavements, preventing moisture infiltration and extending road lifespan.
  5. Dust Control: It can be used to control dust on unpaved roads by binding loose particles together, improving stability.
  6. Chip Sealing: It serves as a binder in chip sealing applications, offering quick adhesion for aggregates and enhancing road surface durability.

RC-800’s combination of higher viscosity and rapid curing properties makes it ideal for various road construction and maintenance projects that require durability and quick application.

Various Packing Method for Cutback Bitumen RC800

Packing cutback bitumen is an essential process to ensure its safe transportation, storage, and handling. The method of packing often depends on the type of cutback bitumen, the transportation method, and the end-use. Here are the various methods used to pack cutback bitumen:

Steel Drum Packing

Cutback Bitumen is commonly packed in new or re-conditioned steel drums, which are robust and provide good protection during transportation.

IBC Tank Packing

Cutback Bitumen is commonly packed in new IBC tank or re-conditioned IBC tank, which are robust and provide good protection during transportation.
