Bitumen MC 70
Slightly thicker than MC-30. Recommended for priming open-texture or porous road bases where MC-30 might flow away too quickly.
MC-70 cures at a moderate rate. It is often preferred in hotter climates or on coarser aggregate bases where a heavier coating is needed for stabilization.
Key Advantages:
-
Optimized for Hot Climates: Preferred for road construction in hotter regions such as East and West Africa.
-
Coarse Aggregate Specialist: Ideal for open-textured or porous bases that require a thicker prime coat.
-
Moderate Curing: Its balanced evaporation rate ensures a strong bond between the base and asphalt layers.
-
Erosion Prevention: Effectively stabilizes loose aggregates and creates a waterproof seal.
Technical Notes:
-
Packaging: Strictly available in New Steel Drums (180kg/210kg) to ensure 100% leak-proof maritime shipping to African ports.
-
Logistics: Specialized containerized delivery to Mombasa, Dar es Salaam, and Lagos.
-
Quality Assurance: Batch-tested for viscosity and curing rates to comply with international standards.
