Description:
Bitumen 30/40 is a penetration-grade bitumen widely used in road construction and waterproofing applications. It is known for its higher hardness compared to softer grades, with a penetration value ranging between 30 to 40 decimillimeters (dmm) at 25°C. This grade offers excellent resistance to deformation and is suitable for regions with moderate to high traffic loads and varying climatic conditions.
Uses:
- Road Construction: Ideal for asphalt mixtures in highways, streets, and heavy-duty pavements.
- Waterproofing: Used in roofing membranes, damp-proofing, and sealing applications.
- Industrial Applications: Employed in the production of bituminous coatings, adhesives, and mastics.
- Airfield Pavements: Suitable for runways and taxiways due to its high stability and durability.
Packing & Shipping:
- Packing: Available in bulk, drums, or customized packaging as per customer requirements.
- Shipping: Transported via tanker trucks, ISO containers, or drums, ensuring compliance with international safety and environmental standards.
