Features & Benefits

Features
  • Active and passive adhesion: Rediset LQ-900 enables treated bitumen to actively coat damp aggregate which ensures good coverage even at lower mixing temperatures. It also provides long term adhesion which improves durability and lifetime of the asphalt pavement.
  • Cost effective: Rediset LQ-900 is a lower cost yet 100% active product
  • Improved workability and compaction: Mixes remain workable to lower temperatures and are easier to compact which enables cool weather paving, longer haul distances and faster paving operations
  • Heat stability: Performance is maintained after 3-5 days storage in hot bitumen
  • Easy to use: The product has lower viscosity at ambient temperatures compared to other products.
  • Compaction aid for hot and warm mixes while providing active and passive adhesion
