Here are the most common questions and answers about Bitumen No.10:
Q1: What is Bitumen No.10 and what are its main properties?
A1: Bitumen No.10 is an extremely hard oxidized bitumen with a penetration value around 10 (0.1 mm) and a very high softening point. It is highly rigid, durable, and designed for specialized applications that require maximum heat resistance and hardness.
Q2: What are the typical applications of Bitumen No.10?
A2: This grade is mainly used in heavy-duty waterproofing systems, electrical insulation, anti-corrosion coatings, industrial adhesives, and chemical processing industries where superior hardness is essential.
Q3: What is the recommended heating/application temperature for Bitumen No.10?
A3: Bitumen No.10 should be heated to approximately 230–250 °C before use. Strict temperature control is required to prevent degradation or cracking of the material during heating.
Q4: What packaging options are available for Bitumen No.10?
A4: It is supplied in 200 L steel drums, 25 kg kraft or meltable bags, jumbo bags, and in bulk (bitutainers or tankers) depending on logistics and project requirements.
Q5: Does Bitumen No.10 comply with international quality standards?
A5: Yes. Production and testing of Bitumen No.10 follow ASTM and EN standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA), MSDS, and third-party inspection reports (SGS, GeoChem) are available upon request.
