Features & Benefits

Industrial Additives Features

Easy Handling,

Good Cohesion Development,

Low Acid Value,

Low Viscosity

Features

• Low acid value bitumen: Slurries show rapid cohesion development, even with low acid value bitumens and polymer modified bitumen. Acid additives are not normally required.
• Fast cohesion development: Redicote C-320 provides slurries and microsurfacings with fast cohesion development suitable for nightwork or cold weather paving
• Easy handling: The product is low viscosity even at low temperatures and soap solutions are easy to prepare
