Oxidized Bitumen 95/25 applications
Comprehensive Guide to Oxidized Bitumen 95/25: Properties, Applications, and Export Insights
Oxidized Bitumen 95/25, also known as Blown Bitumen, is one of the most durable and versatile grades of bitumen used across various industrial and construction sectors. Produced by blowing hot air into penetration-grade bitumen under controlled temperature, this process modifies its physical properties—making it harder, more stable, and resistant to temperature variations.
At Faragam Bitumen, we manufacture and export high-quality Oxidized Bitumen 95/25 with consistent specifications and guaranteed performance, tailored for both domestic and international markets.
Key Properties of Oxidized Bitumen 95/25
Oxidized Bitumen 95/25 is characterized by its softening point of approximately 95°C and penetration value around 25 dmm.
These properties make it ideal for applications requiring thermal resistance, water repellency, and long-term durability.
Main technical characteristics:
- Softening Point: 95 ± 5°C
- Penetration: 25 ± 5 dmm
- Flash Point: Minimum 250°C
- Loss on Heating: <0.5%
- Ductility at 25°C: <5 cm
This grade remains solid at ambient temperatures, ensuring stability during storage and transport, while maintaining flexibility when heated.
Applications of Oxidized Bitumen 95/25
Oxidized Bitumen 95/25 is widely used across industries that demand strong adhesion, high-temperature endurance, and waterproof performance.
Construction and Road Maintenance
Used for crack sealing, joint filling, and road surface protection, oxidized bitumen improves pavement life by preventing water penetration and deformation under heavy traffic.
Roofing and Waterproofing
Due to its hydrophobic nature, it serves as an excellent binder for roofing felts, waterproof membranes, and protective coatings. It creates a long-lasting, water-resistant layer ideal for both hot and humid climates.
Industrial Insulation and Coatings
In manufacturing, it’s used for pipe coating, electrical insulation, and anti-corrosion layers on metallic structures. Its high softening point ensures performance even under extreme heat exposure.
Advantages of Using Oxidized Bitumen 95/25
✔️ Thermal Stability: Resistant to high temperatures and oxidation, ensuring long service life.
✔️ Water Resistance: Provides an impermeable barrier against moisture and humidity.
✔️ Excellent Adhesion: Bonds effectively with various materials including concrete, metal, and fiberglass.
✔️ Long Shelf Life: Remains stable in storage and transport, especially when packed properly.
