Bitumen 85/25 Specifications
Bitumen 85/25 Exporter and Supplier
Oxidized Bitumen 85/25 is a blown bitumen produced through a controlled oxidation process applied to base bitumen, which modifies characteristics such as softening behavior, consistency, and temperature sensitivity compared with conventional paving grade bitumen. It is important to note that 85/25 is an oxidized bitumen grade designation rather than a penetration range, and it should not be confused with penetration grade products such as 80/100 or 100/120. Its specifications and technical properties, including softening point, penetration, and other quality parameters, depend on the applicable product standard and supplier test documentation. Oxidized Bitumen 85/25 can provide useful thermal and adhesive characteristics for industrial applications, distinct from road paving, where the grade’s properties meet the project’s technical requirements.

Oxidized Bitumen 85/25 is a blown bitumen produced through controlled oxidation, designed for industrial applications such as waterproofing, roofing, and pipe coating rather than road paving.
The "85/25" refers to a specific oxidized bitumen grade designation. It should not be interpreted as a penetration range, and exact specification meaning depends on the applicable product standard.
Oxidized Bitumen 85/25 undergoes a controlled oxidation process that alters its consistency and temperature sensitivity, distinguishing it from conventional penetration grade paving bitumen used in road construction.
Common applications include waterproofing systems, roofing membranes, protective coatings, pipe coating, joint filling compounds, and industrial sealants, depending on project requirements.
Yes, Oxidized Bitumen 85/25 is commonly used in waterproofing systems and roofing membranes where its thermal and adhesive characteristics meet the project's technical requirements.
Yes, it is commonly considered for pipe coating and pipeline related protective applications, including bituminous marine mastic for oil and gas pipeline joints, subject to project specifications.
Yes, it is commonly used in joint filling compounds and industrial sealants, though suitability for saw cut and joint sealing depends on expected movement and substrate conditions.
Specifications generally address softening point, penetration, and other quality parameters, which depend on the applicable product standard and supplier test documentation.
Oxidized Bitumen 85/25 is commonly used in the manufacture of bituminous marine mastic for oil and gas pipeline joints, subject to the specific technical requirements of the project.
