Types of bitumen and its use
In general, bitumens are classified based on various factors and parameters and have a high variety. In fact, petroleum-based bitumens are divided into the following three main categories:
soluble bitumen such as MC, RC, SC bitumen
emulsion bitumen such as CMS, CRS, CSS bitumen
pure bitumen such as bitumen with penetration degree such as 60-70 and PG bitumens such as 30-75
It should be noted that each of these items have different capabilities and applications and are used in different situations. It is true that the types of bitumen are different in terms of various factors; However, their most important technical specifications can be summarized in the following:
Viscosity
Ductility
Degree of Penetration
Flash Point
Softening Point
Specific Gravity
Solubility or degree of purity of bitumen Solubilit Fraass Breaking Point Effect of heat and air on bitumen Thin Film Over Test
