Bitumen Penetration Grade 100/120

Bitumen 100/120 is a high quality penetration grade asphalt derived from crude petroleum refining. It is dark in color and possesses waterproofing and adhesive properties. It is substantially non-volatile and softens gradually when heated.

Applications:
Bitumen 100/120 is used as a binder of mineral aggregates in asphalt concrete and hot laid plant mix for highways, airports, parking areas, driveways and curbs.
