Cutback Bitumen MC-30
Medium curing is the most common category in cutback bitumen, among which, MC-30 grade has the highest demand.
MC-30 is a medium curing cutback bitumen that contains 58% bitumen and has the lowest viscosity among all grades. It is black in color and is manufactured strictly as per ASTM D 2027M-13 standard.
