Introduction to Asphalt/Bitumen
At HPChemX, we take pride in offering high-quality bitumen products that cater to a wide range of industrial and infrastructure needs. With years of experience in the industry, we have established ourselves as a reliable and trusted source for bitumen, delivering top-notch solutions to our valued customers.
Our Bitumen Products:
Penetration Bitumen:
Our penetration-grade bitumen is known for its excellent consistency and durability.
It's ideal for road construction, asphalt pavements, and other applications that demand
resilience against varying weather conditions.
Modified Bitumen:
For projects requiring enhanced performance, our modified bitumen is the answer.
Through careful modification processes, we provide bitumen that boasts improved elasticity,
adhesion, and fatigue resistance. This makes it a preferred choice for areas with high traffic loads.
Emulsified Bitumen:
Simplify your construction processes with our emulsified bitumen products.
These are designed to be easily mixed with aggregates, allowing for cold applications in road repairs,
surface treatments, and more.
History of Bitumen:
Bitumen before the 20th century, the term asphaltum was also used. The primary use (70%) is in road construction,
where it is used as the glue or binder mixed with aggregate particles to create asphalt concrete. Its other main uses
are for bituminous waterproofing products, including production of roofing felt and for sealing flat roofs.
The terms "asphalt" and "bitumen" are often used interchangeably to mean both natural and manufactured forms of the substance. In American English, "asphalt" (or "asphalt cement") is commonly used for a refined residue from the distillation process of selected crude oils. Outside the United States, the product is often called "bitumen", and geologists worldwide often prefer the term for the naturally occurring variety.
The components of asphalt include four main classes of compounds:
Naphthene aromatics (naphthalene): consisting of partially hydrogenated polycyclic aromatic compounds.
Polar aromatics: consisting of high molecular weight phenols and carboxylic acids produced by partial oxidation of the material.
Saturated hydrocarbons: the percentage of saturated compounds in asphalt correlates with its softening point.
Asphaltenes: consisting of high molecular weight phenols and heterocyclic compounds
