NATURAL BITUMEN
To meet our customers’ requirements, we have included Natural Bitumen and different grades of normal bitumen (petroleum bitumen) in the range of our products. The primary sources of these products are Asian countries.
Natural Bitumen is a naturally occurring solid hydrocarbon with low specific gravity and high nitrogen and hydrocarbon contents. It is a non- hazardous hydrocarbon that occurs in different parts of the world. It is mined in the form of glossy, brownish black substance. The mined rocks are brittle and can be easily crushed into powder.
NATURAL BITUMEN IS VERY PURE AND CAN BE USED IN VARIOUS PRODUCTS SUCH AS:
- Asphalt Modifier
- Foundry Sand Additives
- Drilling mud and Cement
- Printing Ink
- Paints
- Black wax
- Battery
PENETRATION GRADE BITUMEN MODIFIED WITH NATURAL BITUMEN WILL HAVE THE FOLLOWING ADVANTAGES:
- Improved PVN
- Improved resistance to aging & weathering
- Improved PI
- Increased Viscosity
- Lower Wax content
- Substantial increase in adhesion to aggregates
- Improved
Polymer Modified Bitumen
Thermal Susceptibility of modified Bitumen, especially in high temperatures climates.
Asphalt hot mixes produced with this type of modified bitumen will have increased strength, reduced rutting and shoving deformation, and improved resistance to water stripping.
Adding Natural Bitumen to drilling Mud will help to control the lost circulation. Its addition to cement slurries will result in strong and lightweight slurries for cementing weak formations and controlling circulation losses.
Our Natural Bitumen can be supplied in different mesh sizes and packing according to customers’ requests.
