Bitumen 60/70 quality
We submit quality certificate against delivery but there are four types of 60/70 in market which is made by different technology.
- Continuous production which has high molecular boundaries and ductility and viscosity.
- Batching production which is make up to 100 tons by batch and discharge again and then fill raw material. This types may burn the bitumen and TFOT test is not passing by this mode of production.
- Blending facility which mixing two grade of soft and hard together and make desire bitumen 60/70. Since in the process we don’t have oxygen injection and heating the wax content is higher also viscosity is lower.
- Iraqi bitumen 60/70 is cheaper and made by vacuum resin. This product is high viscosity and don’t have movement during the applying also they are taking out the hydrocarbon from VR by direct heating and bitumen burnt and it means sport test is positive while it must be negative.
