PENETRATION GRADE BITUMEN
ASTM Standard – Bitumen 85/100
Penetration Grade Bitumen 85/100 is a versatile penetration grade bitumen widely used in flexible pavement construction manufactured by refining crude oil under controlled conditions. Bitumen Grade 85/100 offers a balanced combination of hardness and flexibility, making it well-suited for a variety of climatic conditions. Asphalt grade bitumen 85/100 provides excellent adhesion and durability, allowing roads to withstand moderate traffic loads without significant wear. Its performance reliability and adaptability make Bitumen 85/100 a preferred choice for preparation of hot asphalt mixes for wearing courses and waterproofing materials used in infrastructure development.
Cutback RC 250
Rapid Curing 250 RC250 a combination of penetration grade asphalt cement and a diluent or cutter highly rapid in its volatility making it easier to apply.
Cutback MC 800
Rapid Curing 800 MC800 a combination of penetration grade asphalt cement and a diluent or cutter highly rapid in its volatility making it easier to apply.
Characteristics
- Moderate penetration value provides flexibility and hardness.
- Effective resistance against deformation and environmental stress.
- Excellent adhesive properties, ensuring strong bonds in asphalt layers.
- Durable and weatherproof, ideal for long-term applications.
Applications
- Construction of roads, highways, and urban streets in medium traffic zones.
- Suitable for manufacturing asphalt mixtures for residential and commercial roads.
- Used in waterproofing applications for construction projects.
- Industrial uses, including production of roofing felt and sealing compounds.
