Overview of the UAE’s 115/15 Oxidized Bitumen
Air-blowing produces oxidized bitumen 115/15, a high-performance bitumen grade. This operation forces air into soft bitumen at regulated temperatures. The end product is a bitumen material that is ideal for a variety of industrial uses in the United Arab Emirates because it has increased durability, flexibility, and resistance to temperature fluctuations.
Method of Oxidized Bitumen Production 115/15
High-performance bitumen is produced using the most severe techniques to ensure the highest quality and performance. A bitumen oxidation facility heats the bitumen before starting the air-blowing process. After exposure to air, bitumen undergoes a chemical reaction that raises its viscosity and softening point while decreasing its penetration rate.
The production method of oxidized bitumen
Important characteristics of oxidized bitumen: 115/15 high softness point.
Because oxidized bitumen (115/15) has a substantially higher softening point than conventional bitumen, it can withstand the extreme temperatures seen in the UAE.
The penetration rate is weak.
The UAE’s harsh climate necessitates hardness and endurance in industrial applications; therefore, oxidized bitumen 115/15 has a low penetration rate.
The 115/15 bitumen’s elasticity and flexibility
The material’s ability to maintain its elasticity and suppleness across a wide temperature range provides excellent performance in both hot and cold conditions.
Improved Stickiness
Enhancing the durability and dependability of coatings and constructions in the United Arab Emirates, the enhanced adhesion qualities guarantee a solid bond with a variety of substrates.
In the UAE, oxidized bitumen was applied 115/15 times.
Adding a waterproof layer.
Oxidized bitumen 115/15 is often used in waterproofing applications for foundations, basements, and roofs due to its improved water and moisture resistance.
Building Roads
It is essential to the creation of asphalt, which is used in road construction and gives UAE road surfaces their resilience and longevity.
Pipe Coating
In the United Arab Emirates, the material protects steel pipes against corrosion and extends their lifespan.
Industrial roofs
The high elasticity and softening point of oxidized bitumen (115/15) are beneficial for industrial roofing applications because they provide long-lasting protection against environmental conditions.
The benefits of oxidized bitumen in the United Arab
Emirates are significant.
Temperature Consistency
Because it is resilient and effective in a wide range of temperatures, from frigid to very hot, oxidized bitumen 115/15 is appropriate for a variety of UAE climates and situations.
Extended duration of action.
The chemical composition of high-quality penetration grade Bitumen 115/15 assures long-term performance while reducing the need for routine maintenance and repairs.
Environmental Difficulty
Its remarkable resistance to environmental elements such as UV rays, oxidation, and chemical exposure makes it an ideal choice for industrial applications in the UAE.
Bitumen Storage and Packaging: 115/15
Oxidized Bitumen 115/15 is available in a variety of packing forms, including:
Steel drums provide easy handling and safe storage.
Kraft paper bags are convenient to transport and perfect for small amounts.
Bulk Supply: Major industrial projects in the UAE rely on efficient and cost-effective bulk delivery.
Guidelines for Storage
To preserve the product’s integrity, keep it cool and dry, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. To avoid fume buildup, ensure that the storage area has enough ventilation.
When working with oxidized bitumen (115/15), safety
Procedures must be taken to avoid accidents and health risks.
Wear the appropriate gloves, eye protection, and protective clothes as part of your safety equipment.
When handling the chemical, make sure there is enough ventilation to prevent fume inhalation.
First aid.If you come into contact with your skin, wash it well with soap and water. If the inflammation persists, seek medical help.
