In this post, we’ll probe into bitumen trading, with a particular spotlight on Chinese buyers. Bitumen, a highly viscous and sticky substance, is crucial in the infrastructure and construction segments. […]

Understanding Flash Point The flash point of a substance is the lowest temperature at which it can release vapors that can ignite when exposed to an open flame or spark. In the context of bitumen, the flash point indicates the temperature at which it can produce enough flammable vapors to ignite under specific test conditions. […]

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 melting point of bitumen Double number of softening point is melting point for instance bitumen 60/70 softening point is 48 to 52  so melting point is 96 to 105 centigrade and it is filling temperature to drum or tanker as well. Methods of Determining the Melting Point of Bitumen Accurate determination […]

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 […]

Asphalt and bitumen tankers are specialized vessels designed for the transportation of liquid bitumen at high temperatures.Bitumen 60/70 and bitumen 80/100 are most transported in bulk. These tankers are equipped with independent tanks and powerful heating systems to maintain the required temperature of the cargo during transport. NAME OF BITUMEN VESSEL MODEL IVER BLESSING 2010 […]
