Description of Oxidized Bitumen 105/35
Gold Bitumen manufactures oxidized bitumen 105/35, a high-quality grade of oxidized asphalt, by blowing hot air into bitumen 60/70. This grade is ideal for use as bonding compounds and hot melt adhesives, applied at an approximate rate of 1 Kg/m³ to bond preformed sheets. Furthermore, oxidized bitumen 105/35 is a semi-solid grade made from pure petroleum bitumen with air-blowing through an asphalt flux, offering exceptional physical properties for various construction applications.
Gold Bitumen ensures the quality of oxidized bitumen 105/35 with strict quality control and international inspections before shipment. Our products comply with ASTM standards, guaranteeing superior performance and reliability.
Premium Uses of Oxidized Bitumen 105/35
Industries use oxidized bitumen 105/35 in various applications, including:
- Road construction and pavement repair
- Roofing and waterproofing
- Paints, lacquers, and varnishes
- Adhesives and sealants
- Chemical and textile processing
- Pipe coatings and corrosion protection
- Automobile undercoating for waterproofing, dust-proofing, and noise reduction
In addition, manufacturers use oxidized bitumen 105/35 in asphalt-based paints for metal corrosion protection, hydraulic applications, and insulation materials for construction projects.
Application of Oxidized Bitumen 105/35
To achieve optimal flow and viscosity, oxidized bitumen 105/35 must be heated to a temperature twice its softening point. Before applying, ensure that surfaces are clean, dry, and free of loose particles, formwork, curing products, irregularities, and slurries.
Storage and Handling of Oxidized Bitumen 105/35
Bitumen 105/35 retains its quality for up to 10 years, even with multiple heating and cooling cycles. To maximize its shelf life, store the product under shelter and away from rain and sunlight. For more information, please refer to the MSDS.
High-Quality Packing of Oxidized Bitumen 105/35
Gold Bitumen offers oxidized bitumen 105/35 in a variety of packaging options, including kraft bags, meltable plastic bags, drums, and bulk containers. Each package is designed to meet customer requirements and ensure safe transportation. The product is manufactured by blowing hot air into penetration-grade bitumen in a controlled process, achieving the desired specifications. For example, grade 105/35 has a softening point of 105°C and a penetration value of 35 desi-millimeters. Our products comply with ASTM standards.
Guaranty/Warranty of Blown Bitumen 105/35
Gold Bitumen guarantees the quality of blown bitumen 105/35 by arranging international inspectors to verify the quality and quantity of each shipment. Our QC team conducts batch tests during production to ensure compliance with ASTM/EN 13304:2009 standards, providing customers with reliable and high-quality products.
