Oxidized Asphalt 105/35
Description of Oxidized Asphalt 105/35
Oxidized Asphalt 105/35 is produced by either Continuous or Staggered Blowing Process. Heated Penetration Grade Bitumen under controlled environment is blown with air which controls the Oil Content in the Bitumen while it oxidized. The different grades for suited applications produced are designated by two numbers to indicate the mid-points of their softening point and penetration ranges.
Oxidized Asphalt 105/35 is the semi-solid oxidized grade of pure petroleum bitumen categorized in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is normally used for different purposes in the construction business.
Oxidized Asphalt 105/35 is the suitable grade of oxidized asphalt to use as bonding compounds as hot melt adhesive at an application rate of approximately 1 Kg/m3 to bond the preformed sheets together and to structure which is made by blowing bitumen 60/70 by very hot air.

Uses of Oxidized Asphalt 105/35
Oxidized Asphalt 105/35 is widely used as an anti-slip layer compound in the piling industry, for the manufacture of roofing felts, for sound dampening felts and under carriage sealant in the automobile industry, electric cable joint protection, joint filling compound, sealant compound and many others.
It’s using as raw material for Bitumen coat, roofing, insulation also in Isolation bitumen membrane sheet. Also Oxidized Asphalt 105/35 uses in chemical, fuel, paints, lacquers, varnishes, paper-pulp-board, textile processing. In road construction, pavement, crack seal and repairmen, civil works, roofing also construction. In addition, it uses for sealing and insulating buildings, adhesive, construction materials additive, dust-binding, coating. With the wide range uses in the insulating and impregnating agent, make rubber and plastic products.
The Bitumen 105/35 products are for paving, roofing. Also used in asphalt-based paints for corrosion protection of metals, inlining public works structures, adhesives in electrical laminates, base for synthetic turf. Typical uses for Oxidized Asphalt 105/35 also include roofing, pipe coating, Portland cement pavement, hydraulic applications, paint manufacturing.
Packing of Oxidized Asphalt 105/35
RAHA GROUP is the manufacturer of oxidized Asphalt 105/35 in various packing, including bitumen 105/35 is available in 20 & 50 kg Kraft Paper Bags / Poly Amide Bags, 25 kg Carton box & 150, 180, 200 Kg Steel Drums. In addition, oxidized bitumen packing also palletize, 40 bags can stack on the pallet. 20 pallet can load to the 20ft container.
Storage and Handling
Packaged bitumen is a crucial phase in most final uses, typically heated and melted in on-site boilers. Control at the heating phase is essential for health and safety, as well as product quality. The maximum safe handling temperature is 230 C, and it should not be abused. Bitumen is a poor heat conductor, so controlling the heating phase is crucial. Breaking up oxidized bitumen material before placement in the boiler exposes a larger surface area, promoting an even heating regime.
Aggressive heating at the base and sides may result in localized overheating, altering the characteristics of the RAHA modified bitumen and potentially causing thermal cracking and low flash vapors. Melted bitumen should not be left in the boiler and reheated from cold, as this could lead to localized overheating and a pressurized pocket of low flash vapors. Temperature monitoring or control devices should be placed carefully, as the poor thermal conductivity of bitumen can cause thermometer readings to be significantly different from the true temperature.
Health & Safety
Workers should wear protective masks, gloves, and goggles during application. The asphalt can be removed from equipment and tools with kerosene or gasoline. Care should be taken when heating Oxidized Asphalt 105/35 to avoid over heating
