Bitumen blended with petroleum solvent to reduce viscosity. RC, MC and SC identify rapid, medium and slow curing; the remaining binder develops as solvent evaporates. Confirm the grade, application and local handling requirements. Selection also depends on the approved work method and the conditions for curing at the job site. Include the specified curing family, viscosity grade and intended treatment in your enquiry; substitution with an emulsion requires a separate review.
Reference limits from the SRNT catalogue, not measured batch results or a COA. Availability, the applicable standard edition and contractual limits are confirmed for each enquiry.
