Oxidized Bitumen 105/15 Definition
Oxidized Bitumen 105/15 (another word, blown asphalt 105/15, asphalt bitumen 105/15) is Semi Solid grade of pure petroleum bitumen manufactured by air-blowing through an asphalt flux. Special physical properties of its grade can be used in different applications in the construction business. Oxidized asphalt 105/15 is based on petroleum bitumen which is made by blowing bitumen 60/70 by very hot air. The numbers relate to the midpoint of the material’s softening point and penetration respectively. The softening point value is the degrees Centigrade measured by the Ring and Ball method as determined by ASTM D36. The penetration value is in 1/10 mm as determined by IP49 or ASTM- D5.
Oxidized Bitumen 105/15 Applications
Oxidized asphalt 105/15 uses in the chemical, fuel, paints, lacquers, varnishes, paper-pulp-board, textile processing, road construction, pavement, crack seal and repairmen, civil works, roofing, construction industries; sealing and insulating buildings, adhesive, construction materials additive, dust-binding, insulating and impregnating agent, make rubber and plastic products. The oxidized asphalt 105/15 products are for paving. also used in asphalt-based paints for corrosion protection of metals, in lining public works structures, adhesives in electrical laminates, base for synthetic turf; typical uses for asphalt 105/15 used also for water-proof application and corrosion resistance for pipe coating, Portland cement pavement, hydraulic applications, paint manufacturing, caulking, mastics, and damp proofing. Asphalt 105/15 is using insulation and isolation bitumen membrane sheet. Car undercoating Automobile industry is specially required for Blown Asphalt. Vehicle undercoating material is based on Bitumen. Bitumen provides excellent waterproof, dustproof and noise proof for automobile undercoating. The oxidized asphalt 105/15 should be heated double temperature against the softening point to support have flow and viscosity. To use asphalt 105/15, surfaces must be dry, clean and after loose particles, formwork, curing products, irregularities, slurry, etc.
