Bitumen 120/150
Bitumen 120/150:
Definition: It is a kind of bitumen, which is provided during the process of oxidation of vacuum bottom (the bitumen production feedstock that derives from distillation tower residue in vacuum oil refineries) at bitumen production units. In a manner that its penetration point (kind of test to indicate the hardness of bitumen) becomes between 120-150.
Usage: The main common usage of this product is in road making at temperate regions.
