Bitumen 80/100 — Flexible Penetration Grade Bitumen

The designation is by penetration range only. The penetration grade bitumens have a thermoplastic property which causes the material to soften at high temperatures and to harden at lower temperatures. This unique temperature/ viscosity relationship is important when determining the performance parameters such as the adhesion, rheology, durability and application temperatures of bitumen.

The Bitumen mode is dependent on temperature. The temperature-vs-stiffness relationship of bitumen is dependent on the type of crude oil and its refining method. Bitumen 80/100 penetration grade  is semi-hard penetration grade bitumen used as a paving grade bitumen which is suitable for road construction and repair. It is also used for the production of asphalt pavements with the below technical specification. This grade of bitumen is mainly used in the manufacturing of hot mix asphalt for bases and wearing courses. Bitumen penetration 80/100 is one of the most used bitumen grades and it’s a basic material for all other bituminous products.

Bitumen 80/100 Diffrent Types of Packing

There are several different ways to package the bitumen which can vary depending on the tonnage, type, and grade of the bitumen- as mentioned before, different grades of bitumen have different levels of stiffness and viscosity- so the grade also plays an important role in choosing a suitable packaging.

Bitumen grade 80/100 is commonly packed in new steel drums, 150, 180 & 220 Kg barrels and Jumbo Bags.

•  1 MT Jumbo Bag with Steel Cage and Pallet- Loading 20 Jumbo Bag in 20ft Container= 20 Ton- The most common packaging for East of Asia and South America
• 180kg New Steel Drum– Loading 110Drum in 20ft Container= 19.8-20 Ton- The most common packaging for East of Asia and Africa Countries
• 150kg New Steel Drum– Loading 110Drum in 20ft Container= 16.5 Ton- The most common packaging for Bangladesh, Nepal- Indonesia
• Bitutainer– Loading 25 Ton Bulk Bitumen in Bitutainer- This type of packaging is not common due to the high cost of the Bitutainer and is often suitable for short distances where round-trip transportation is cost-effective.
• Bulk in Tanker Truck= Loading 24-25 Ton Bulk Bitumen in Tanker Truck- Suitable for neighboring countries
• Bulk in Bitumen Carrier (Bulk Vessel): Loading 2,000-40,000 Ton Bitumen in Bulk Vessel- Very convenient and suitable and cost-effective for customers who have tanks at the destination port.

What is the Dencity of Bitumen 80/100

Density is a core physical characteristic that expresses how much mass is contained in a given volume of a material. For bitumen, this property is especially important because it influences how the material behaves and performs in different uses. Density is usually reported in kilograms per cubic metre (kg/m³) or grams per cubic centimetre (g/cm³). For the widely used penetration grade bitumen 80/100, the density typically falls between about 1,000 and 1,050 kg/m³.
