Bitumen Penetration Grade (Astm, En & Ip Standard)
Bitumen known as asphalt in parts of the world, is a hydrocarbon material. It has high viscosity and colloidal structure, and black to dark brown color. It's dissolvable in carbon disulfide and carbon tetrachloride. It is impenetrable to moisture and water, electrical insulation, elasticity, moderate resistance against acids, bases and salts. Its adhesions to other materials are the most important features of bitumen. Bitumen 60/70 is used for road construction projects in temperate regions. It can be used to produce some of the basic layers of asphalt and insulation. Technical and grades specification are available upon request.
Penetration Grade Bitumen is a standard bitumen usually used as a Paving Grade Bitumen essential for road construction and the production of asphalt pavements with superior properties, and it's very important once it bounds the aggregates and creates a unique cohesion and stability to the bituminous mix. This grade of Bitumen is mainly used in the manufacture of hot mix asphalt for bases and wearing courses. Grades of penetration bitumen: The most popular grades are; grades 40/50, 60/70, 80/100, 85/100, and 100/120. We are also capable of producing other grades of Penetration Bitumen upon request by our customers.
Bitumen penetration grade 60/70 is semi-hard penetration grade bitumen using as paving grade bitumen suitable for road construction and repair conjointly for the production of asphalt pavements with below technical specifications. This grade of bitumen is mainly used in the manufacture of hot combine asphalt for bases and wearing courses. Bitumen 60/70 is the most used bitumen grade and basic material for all alternative bituminous products. Bitumen Penetration Grade 60/70 is mainly used in the manufacture of hot mix asphalt for bases and wearing courses. Penetration Grade Bitumen supplied by RAHA GROUP is petroleum grade bitumen, manufactured from fractional / vacuum distillation of crude oil. The Bitumen supplied by RAHA GROUP is produced from vacuum residue (short residue) feedstock. RAHA Penetration Grade bitumens are specified by the penetration and softening point test. The designation is by penetration range only. The penetration grade bitumens have a thermoplastic property which causes the material to soften at high temperatures and to harden at lower temperatures. This unique temperature/ viscosity relationship is important when determining the performance parameters such as the adhesion, rheology, durability and application temperatures of bitumen.
Bitumen penetration grade 40/50 bitumen means the penetration value is in the range 40 to 50 at standard test conditions which commonly used as a Paving Grade. Bitumen is applicable for the production of hot mix asphalt for bases and pavements and for road construction. Penetration Grade Bitumen supplied by RABIT (RAHA BITUMEN) Co. This bitumen is produced through aeration on vacuum bottom (the raw material used for making bitumen left in vacuum distillation column in oil refineries) in bitumen production units. Its penetration grade ( the measure of bitumen hardness) is between 40 to 50. Bitumen is specified by the penetration and softening point test. Designing is by penetration range only. The penetration grade bitumen has a thermoplastic property which causes the material to soften at high temperatures and to harden at lower temperatures. This unique temperature-viscosity relationship is important when determining the performance parameters such as the adhesion, rheology, durability and application temperatures of bitumen.
IRAN BITUMEN GRADE 60/70 Bitumen penetration grade 60/70 is semi-hard penetration grade bitumen using as paving grade bitumen suitable for road construction and repair also for the production of asphalt pavements with the below technical specification. This grade of bitumen is mainly used in the manufacture of hot mix asphalt for bases and wearing courses.Bitumen 60/70 is most used bitumen grade and basic material for all other bituminous products.
Bitumen Penetration Grade 85/100 is a standard penetration grade Bitumen usually used as a Paving Grade Bitumen suitable for road construction and for the production of asphalt pavements with superior properties. This grade of Bitumen is mainly used in the manufacture of hot mix asphalt for bases and wearing courses. Penetration Grade Bitumen supplied by RABIT (RAHA BITUMEN) Co. is petroleum grade bitumen, manufactured from fractional / vacuum distillation of crude oil. The Bitumen supplied by RABIT Trading Co. This bitumen is produced through aeration on vacuum bottom (the raw material used for making bitumen left in vacuum distillation column in oil refineries) in bitumen production units. Its penetration grade ( the measure of bitumen hardness) is between 85 to 100. Penetration Grade bitumens are specified by the penetration and softening point test. The designation is by penetration range only. The penetration grade bitumens have a thermoplastic property which causes the material to soften at high temperatures and to harden at lower temperatures. This unique temperature/ viscosity relationship is important when determining the performance parameters such as the adhesion, rheology, durability and application temperatures of bitumen. The Bitumen mode is dependent on temperature. The temperature-vs-stiffness relationship of bitumen is dependent on the type of crude oil and its refining method. Bitumen penetration grade 85/100 is semi hard penetration grade bitumen used as a paving grade bitumen which is suitable for road construction and repair. It is also used for the production of asphalt pavements with the below technical specification. This grade of bitumen is mainly used in the manufacturing of hot mix asphalt for bases and wearing courses. Bitumen 85/100 is one of the most used bitumen grades and it�¢??s a basic material for all other bituminous products. Penetration determines the hardness of bitumen by measuring the depth to which a standard loaded the needle will vertically penetrate in 5 seconds, in a sample of bitumen maintained at a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius.
