Bitumen #10 Description:

Bitumen #10 is a hard-grade building asphalt characterized by its penetration value, which starts from #10. This numerical designation, “10,” is why it is commonly referred to as Bitumen Number 10. Bitumen #10 is available in various packaging options, including bags, drums, and bulk tankers. This grade of asphalt building material is primarily used in the Eastern Asian market, particularly in Taiwan, China, the Philippines, and Indonesia.

Uses of Bitumen #10:

Bitumen #10 finds application in a range of construction and industrial uses, including but not limited to:

1. Underground Moisture Waterproofing: Used for waterproofing works in underground construction to protect against moisture infiltration.
2. Nuclear Power Engineering: Employed in nuclear power engineering projects for various applications, including pipeline engineering and bottom anticorrosion.
3. Asphalt Production: Used as a component in the production of asphalt for various purposes.
4. Waterproofing Membrane and Moisture-Proof Paper Production: Utilized in the manufacturing of waterproofing membranes and moisture-resistant paper products.
5. Anti-corrosion Paint and Waterproof Production: An ingredient in the production of anti-corrosion paints and waterproofing materials.
6. Road and Bridge Caulking: Used for sealing and caulking purposes in road and bridge construction projects.

Note: The penetration value, indicated by #10, is a measure of the hardness or consistency of the bitumen, with lower values indicating harder bitumen and higher values indicating softer bitumen. Bitumen #10 is considered a harder grade of bitumen.
