Usage of Penetration bitumen Grade 80/100
To have bitumen with semi-hard penetration degree, 80-100 bitumen can be used. It is also using as paving. This type of bitumen is used for asphalt paving, road construction and repairs. Companies usually used in in the manufacture of hot mix asphalt for bases and wearing courses. Bitumen 80/100 is mostly used as raw material for other bitumen products. It uses for bases and wearing courses. Bitumen 35/50 lasts longer and guarantees thin pavements. Moreover, this design uses 30% less asphalt than traditional designs.
Softening point and penetration of bitumen 80-100
This company passes pure petroleum bitumen through a vacuum floor with hot air to make Penetration grade bitumen. . Also it is made from remain of crude oil after cracking and removing hydrocarbon. Penetration grade bitumen 80/100 has penetration between 80~100 desi-millimeter and softening point between 48 ~ 56C. Bitumen 80/100, like synthetic resin, has thermoplastic properties which gets softer with heating and hardens when cooled. This grade of bitumen 80/100 has very strong viscosity compare to other grades.
