Description
Penetration Grade Bitumen 80/100 is a standard bitumen of the penetration grade classification, which is suitable for road construction and hot asphalt production. It is mostly used in cold regions.
Application of Penetration Grade Bitumen 80/100
- This bitumen is almost loose and is used for colder areas.
- The penetration degree of bitumen is 80/100 according to the standard in the range of 80 to 100.
- The use of penetrating bitumen is mainly in road construction.
- For areas with hotter climates, harder bitumen (lower degree of penetration) is used, and for areas with colder climates, looser bitumen (higher degree of penetration) is used.
