Bitumen 60/70

Bitumen penetration grade 60/70

Bitumen penetration grade 60/70, also known as a paving grade, denotes that the penetration value is between 60 and 70 under conventional test conditions. Used for paving, road edifice, and hot mix asphalt production. Petro Bitumen Company provides Penetration Grade Bitumen. The raw material for creating bitumen, which is left in distillation under vacuum columns in oil refineries, is aerated on the vacuum bottom in bitumen units for manufacturing. It has a penetration grade of 60 to 70, which is a gauge of bitumen hardness, as determined by its penetration grade test. Designing is based on the penetration range of the thermoplastic penetration grade bitumen. Bitumen’s performance parameters are determined by its temperature-viscosity relationship, which affects factors like adhesion, rheology, durability, and application temperatures. Temperature is a key factor in the Bitumen mode. Bitumen stiffness varies based on crude oil type and refining method. Grade 60/70 is a semi-hard paving bitumen used in road construction and repair.

Utilizations of Bitumen Penetration Grade 60/70

Used to produce asphalt pavements with specific technical specifications for making hot mix asphalt for bases and wearing courses. Bitumen 60/70 is a popular grade and a key ingredient in other bituminous derivatives. By measuring how deep a needle burrows a temperature-controlled sample in 5 seconds, with the controlled temperature of 25 degrees Celsius, penetration assesses the hardness of bitumen
