Cutback bitumen MC250
MC250 Soluble Retardant Bitumen is one of the types of soluble bitumen which is obtained from the combination of pure bitumen and a semi-heavy industrial solvent such as kerosene. This bitumen can be used at low temperatures and this feature saves fuel.
MC250 retarder bitumen is produced according to ASTM D 2027M-13 standard and has 74% pure bitumen. Medium Curing 250 is the full name of this black bitumen. In the following text, we have described the characteristics of soluble bitumen MC250 based on ASTM standards.
Specifications of soluble bitumen MC250
Kinematic viscosity of bitumen solution MC250
The viscosity of this bitumen depends on the amount of pure bitumen and its solvent and is measured at 60 degrees Celsius on average. 250 to 500 Cst is the number obtained from this test. Before ordering bitumen, be sure to pay attention to the viscosity of the desired product.
MC250 solution bitumen flash point
Flash point or ignition point is the lowest temperature at which vapors of a liquid ignite in the vicinity of an ignition source. Flash point of bitumen MC250 with open apparatus is 66 degrees Celsius.
Solubility of bitumen solution MC250
One of the tests that is performed on the retarding bitumen distillation residue is the solubility in trichloroethylene, which is 99% obtained in laboratory conditions.
Volume percentage of pure bitumen in soluble bitumen MC250
Distillation test includes measuring the volume percentage of distilled materials at different temperatures. It has 10% at 225°C, 15-55% at 260°C, 60-87% at 316°C, and 67% pure bitumen on average at 360°C.
Application of MC250 retardant solution bitumen
Soluble retarder bitumen plays countless roles in the road construction industry. High-quality soluble bitumen can be used to produce long-lasting asphalt that will be with dear drivers for many years. The function of MC250 bitumen in road construction is that the solvent in it evaporates and pure bitumen remains to create adhesion.
The use of MC250 soluble bitumen in immediate and non-immediate spotting in industrial cold asphalt, paving and asphalt sub-basement, bituminous dusting and dusting of binder and production of protective asphalts is well known for industrialists.
The price of bitumen retarder solution MC250
The quality of pure bitumen has a great influence on the price of soluble bitumen. The amount of industrial solvent and its type are also effective in the price of MC250 bitumen, just like pure bitumen. The cost of these bitumen is very important for companies that operate in the field of road construction; Because in addition to buying soluble bitumen, they have to buy other materials to make a high-quality asphalt.
Of course, these companies should not sacrifice price for quality. If the price of soluble bitumen MC250 is low and its quality is not good, the costs will increase in the long run. After a few years, the manufactured asphalt will be destroyed and new asphalt must be replaced, and the company’s costs will multiply.
Purchase of MC250 retardant soluble bitumen
You can get MC250 bitumen in the form of bulk, new barrels and used barrels. To reduce costs in the long run, we recommend that you buy high-quality soluble bitumen from a reputable company.
