Asphalt aggregate size and model of choosing the crashed sands and stones in road design
The percentage of bitumen in an asphalt mixture typically ranges from 5% to 10%. This proportion can vary depending on the specific requirements of the project, as the bitumen content directly affects the asphalt’s performance characteristics, such as resistance to deformation and its ability to withstand different weather conditions³. For instance, highway pavements may require […]

Viscosity of bitumen 60/70 as per ASTM acceptable range of viscosity for bitumen 60/70 is between 1600 to 2400 poise. Viscosity: Definition and Importance Viscosity is a measure of a fluid’s resistance to flow. In the context of bitumen, viscosity refers to its ability to flow under specific temperature and load conditions. It is an […]
Understanding Bitumen’s Softening Point The softening point of bitumen refers to the temperature at which it softens and loses its ability to support a load or resist deformation. It is a critical parameter that determines the suitability of bitumen for specific applications, especially in areas with high ambient temperatures. The higher the softening point, the […]
Easy Way to Recognize the Melting Point of Bitumen A simple way to estimate the Melting point of bitumen is to double the softening point.For example, if Bitumen grade 60/70 has a softening point between 48°C and 52°C, then its melting point usually falls around 96°C to 105°C. Because of this, the same range is […]
Understanding Tack Coat Bitumen Tack coat bitumen, also known as bond coat or tack coat emulsion, acts as a bonding agent between successive asphalt layers. This thin layer of bitumen is applied to the existing road surface before overlaying it with a new asphalt layer. The primary purpose of a tack coat is to ensure […]
