whghy we do ductility test for bitumen

The bitumen ductility test is conducted to assess the ability of bitumen to deform without breaking or cracking at elevated temperatures. This test helps determine the suitability of bitumen for use in road construction by evaluating its flexibility and durability under different environmental conditions.
You can determine the ductility of a brazing paste by conducting a bend test on a brazed joint made with the paste. The paste should exhibit sufficient flexibility and resistance to cracking when bent. Additionally, examining the manufacturer's specifications or consulting with a materials engineer can provide more information on the ductility of the brazing paste.
The concentration of thorium in bitumen can vary depending on the source, but typically it is found in trace amounts. Studies have shown that thorium levels in bitumen are generally low and not considered a significant environmental or health risk.
Bitumen is typically black or dark brown in color compared to smaller hydrocarbons, which are often colorless or light in color. This difference in color is due to the higher molecular weight and complexity of bitumen compared to smaller hydrocarbons.
Ductility is a mechanical property of a material that describes its ability to deform under tensile stress without fracturing. It is not a physical state, but rather a characteristic of a material's behavior under certain conditions.
Bitumen (asphalt) (tar) is a mixture of chemicals left over at the end of a distillation process. As it is not a pure substance (a single chemical), we cannot provide you with a chemical formula.
