cut black bitumen needs a solvent to dilute it whereas emulsion doesn't.
No, within the US and Poland, asphalt is synonymous with bitumen. The correct term for a mixture of bitumen and aggregates is asphalt concrete.
An estimated 88,000,000 barrels per day worldwide.
Cutback Bitumen : Normal practice is to heat bitumen to reduce its viscosity. In some situations preference is given to use liquid binders such as cutback bitumen. In cutback bitumen suitable solvent is used to lower the viscosity of the bitumen. From the environmental point of view also cutback bitumen is preferred. The solvent from the bituminous material will evaporate and the bitumen will bind the aggregate. Cutback bitumen is used for cold weather bituminous road construction and maintenance. The distillates used for preparation of cutback bitumen are naphtha, kerosene, diesel oil, and furnace oil. There are different types of cutback bitumen like rapid curing (RC), medium curing (MC), and slow curing (SC). RC is recommended for surface dressing and patchwork. MC is recommended for premix with less quantity of fine aggregates. SC is used for premix with appreciable quantity of fine aggregates.Bitumen Emulsion : Bitumen emulsion is a liquid product in which bitumen is suspended in a finely divided condition in an aqueous medium and stabilized by suitable material. Normally cationic type emulsions are used in India. The bitumen content in the emulsion is around 60% and the remaining is water. When the emulsion is applied on the road it breaks down resulting in release of water and the mix starts to set. The time of setting depends upon the grade of bitumen. The viscosity of bituminous emulsions can be measured as per IS: 8887-1995. Three types of bituminous emulsions are available, which are Rapid setting (RS), Medium setting (MS), and Slow setting (SC). Bitumen emulsions are ideal binders for hill road construction. Where heating of bitumen or aggregates are difficult. Rapid setting emulsions are used for surface dressing work. Medium setting emulsions are preferred for premix jobs and patch repairs work. Slow setting emulsions are preferred in rainy season.
Bitumen is a mixture of many organic compounds, not only one chemical compound.
In one molecule of bitumen there are 22-45atoms of carbon.
Modified Bitumen it makes bitumen more power while you use it in construction area , Modified Bitumen Introduced in Eighties to combat with common pavement distress. There are about 4 different specifications based on type of modifier used similar to ASTM specifications for modified bitumen. Many Authorities advises for use of minimum 10% modified Bitumen
why bitumen is used
Mustek manufactures a variety of packed bitumen products. Their bitumen products are produced at the Europoort refinery in Rotterdam, Germany. They produce 3 types of bitumen: penetration bitumen,oxidized bitumen, and hard bitumen.
Bitumen has not thorium.
Bitumen is use as fuel.
Yes. Bitumen is already water resistant - it is a mixture of long chain polymers, many of which are asphaltic. You can make acrylic bitumen emulsions which are water dispersible but which, when cured (dried) have the same (or similar) water resistance as pure bitumen.
