General description of Cutback Bitumen RC-30
Cutback Bitumen RC-30 is dissolved of bitumen in solvents of gasoline. 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. he 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.

Application of Cutback RC-30
Cutback agents are used to lowering the viscosity of bitumen when it is applied as a primer to the surface of a road pavement aggregate base course or substrate. Current common uses are in penetrating prime coats and in producing patching or stockpile mixtures.
Packing of Bitumen RC-30
Packing of cutback bitumen RC-30 is in new thick steel drum on the pallet to prevent any leak inside of the container, IBC Tank, and also bulk in bitutainer.
his cutback bitumen bulk in the tanker and also in new steel and thick drum on the pallet to prevent all leak inside of the container.
