Bitumen 60/70
Bitumen 60/70 is processing from oil refinery and is a type of penetrating bitumen. Bitumen 60/70 raw material is taking from on the bottom of refinery tower and called vacuum bottom. In depends on temperature Bitumen 60/70 has different permeability from 60 to 70. Hardness and temperature relation in bitumen 60/70 depends on Crude oil and refinery specifications, which is between 6-7 mm.
Bitumen 60/70, General Applications
Bitumen 60/70, mostly used in making asphalt in road construction. Bitumen 60/70 mixing with other material in asphalt to give it a carpet ability character. Bitumen 60/70 price is not high and has good performance for filling cracks and improving asphalt quality. Bitumen 60/70 also using in polymer bitumen as improver of elasticity and softening.
Bitumen 60/70 Packing Types
Bitumen 60/70 is offering normally in steel drums. In depend on using drum weight is different from 160 to 190 kg. Bitumen 60/70 also packing in jumbo bag which is called bitubag, by 350, 700, 1000 kg net weight of product. Meanwhile, Bitumen 60/70 supplying in bulk as well.
