Description Performance Grade (PG) bitumen is bitumen which is graded based on its performance at different temperatures. The LTPP has given certain algorithm to calculate the temperature of the pavement based on the temperature of the air above. From this,
Bitumen Paint
ALFA COAT 5 BITUMEN PAINT Description Alfa Coat 5 Bitumen Emulsion is a single-pack, fibrated and stable water-borne emulsion which cures to form a firm and flexible bitumen waterproofing membrane. Alfa Coat 5 is designed for use on horizontal and
Oxidized Bitumen
Description Oxidized Bitumen is produced by either Continuous or Staggered Blowing Process. Heated Penetration Grade Bitumen under controlled environment is blown with air which controls the Oil Content in the Bitumen while it oxidized. The different grades for suited applications
Bitumen Emulsion
Description Bitumen emulsion consists of three basic ingredients: bitumen, water, and an emulsifying agent. Based on specifications it may contain other additives, such as stabilizers, coating improvers, anti-strips, or break control agents. It is well known that water and asphalt
Cutback Bitumen (Medium & Rapid)
Cutback Bitumen ( Liquid Bitumen ) is Bitumen that is dissolved in a solvent . Typical solvents include Naptha, gasoline and kerosene, white spirit etc. The type of solvent controls the curing time while the amount determines the viscosity of
Bitumen Class 170,320 & 600
Description Paving grade bitumen manufactured to a tighter specification than prescribed in AS 2008 and is suitable for standard sealing and lightly trafficked asphalt applications. Bitumen used in road construction and maintenance are refined and blended to meet strict road
PENETRATION GRADE BITUMEN
Bitumen is a non-crystalline viscous material, black or dark brown, which is substantially soluble in carbon disulphide (CS2), possessing adhesive and water-proofing qualities. It consists essentially of hydrocarbons and would typically comprise at least 80% carbon and 15% hydrogen, the
Bitumen Price and Methodology
The Soaring Oil prices although justifies the fluctuation in the pricing of bitumen, there is not an established mechanism to derive the bitumen price till date. The bitumen market is getting mature and liquid. The majority of the exporting nations
Viscosity Grading of Bitumen (VG Grade)
Description To grade the bitumen based on viscosity BIS revised IS-73-1992specifications (Viscosity at 60°C) and as such there are four grades VG-10, VG-20, VG-30 & VG-40. A few qualification tests like specificgravity, water content, ductility, loss on heating &Farass breaking
Asphalt Recycling
Asphalt plant manufacturers agree that recycled asphalt is a valuable resource that is too good to waste – Mike Woof writes Around the globe there is growing interest in the use of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP). The technology to utilise
