Bitumen Application and Uses
Asphalt, a common sight on our roads and streets, has become the backbone of modern infrastructure development. The use of asphalt in road construction is not merely a matter of…
What is Bitumen Emulsion
Bitumen emulsion is a liquid form of bitumen with low viscosity achieved by dispersing bitumen in water and adding an emulsifier. This process transforms ordinary bitumen into a liquid that…
Understanding Bitumen: Production, Grades, and Applications
Bitumen, commonly known as asphalt, is a crucial component in the construction and infrastructure industry. It is a versatile and durable material with various grades tailored for specific applications. This…
What is Cutback Bitumen?
Cutback bitumen refers to a group of binders created by blending penetration grade bitumen with a hydrocarbon solvent, such as paraffin or mineral turpentine. The blending process involves mixing these…
Viscosity Grade of Bitumen
Bitumen undergoes a viscosity test that results in its classification into various grades, such as VG10, VG20, VG30, and VG40. In the viscosity grading system, higher numbers indicate harder bitumen.…
Unlocking the Mysteries of Bitumen: Exploring Comprehensive Properties and Applications
Understanding Bitumen Composition: Bitumen's specific gravity, ranging between 0.97 and 1.02, underscores its status as a mixture of heavy organic molecules. Exhibiting a semi-solid, viscous consistency in shades of brown…
Penetration Test for Bitumen
The penetration test assesses the consistency and stability of pure bitumen, oxidized bitumen (blown bitumen), and the residue of emulsion bitumen. However, this test is not suitable for very soft…
German output down on crude supply issues
German bitumen production fell by almost a quarter in the first half of this year, as refiners have been forced to run lighter crude slates through the country's refining system.Consumption…
