Bitumen VG30 – Technical Specifications and Overview

Product Overview
Bitumen VG30 is a high-performance viscosity grade bitumen, extensively used in the construction of roadways, highways, and asphalt pavements. Due to its ideal balance between viscosity and penetration, it is well-suited for moderate climates and areas with moderate traffic load. Bitumen VG30 is commonly used for road surfacing and in applications requiring a more stable binder, ensuring long-term performance.

As a trusted supplier, IRAN REQUEST delivers Bitumen VG30 with consistent quality, adhering to global standards, and serving companies and factories worldwide. Our advanced supply chain enables us to meet the growing demand for petrochemical products, particularly bitumen, ensuring reliability and timely delivery to international markets.

Key Characteristics and Benefits of Bitumen VG30

  • Viscosity and Stability:

    • Absolute Viscosity @ 60°C: The absolute viscosity of 2400 cP ensures the bitumen remains stable during application. This makes it ideal for paving operations where high viscosity is needed for better handling and resistance to deformation under high temperatures.
    • Kinematic Viscosity @ 135°C: With a kinematic viscosity of 350 cSt, Bitumen VG30 is optimal for producing stable mixtures, ensuring a well-distributed binder and preventing segregation or drainage.
  • Flash Point:

    • minimum flash point of 220°C ensures safe handling, even under high temperatures, and reduces the risk of fire during transportation and application, a crucial factor for industries working with bitumen in large quantities.
  • Penetration:

    • With a penetration range of 50-70 dmm at 25°C, this bitumen grade is highly suitable for moderate climate conditions, providing an ideal balance of flexibility and hardness. This ensures that the bitumen maintains its structural integrity even under moderate to heavy traffic conditions.
  • Solubility in Trichloroethylene:

    • The 99% solubility in trichloroethylene ensures that VG30 meets industry standards for purity and quality, which is essential for the uniformity of asphalt mixtures.
  • Viscosity Ratio & Ductility:

    • After undergoing the Thin Film Oven Test (RTFOT), Bitumen VG30 maintains a viscosity ratio of 4.0 max, ensuring minimal aging and degradation, a crucial factor for long-term durability.
    • With a ductility of 40 cm after RTFOT, the bitumen retains its flexibility, preventing cracks or failures in the pavement over time. This property makes it highly beneficial for regions with temperature fluctuations or varying traffic loads.
  • Specific Gravity:

    • With a specific gravity of 0.99, this bitumen is easily mixed with other materials, offering excellent bonding capabilities in asphalt mixes and ensuring good stability and consistency in pavement construction.

Applications of Bitumen VG30

Bitumen VG30 is used in a variety of industrial and construction applications, particularly in the road construction and infrastructure sector. Some of the primary uses include:

  1. Road Construction and Paving:
    Bitumen VG30 is widely used in the construction of highways, streets, and runways, offering excellent stability and resistance to the effects of traffic, weather, and wear. Its high viscosity ensures strong bonding and durability under high-stress conditions.

  2. Asphalt Mix Production:
    VG30 is typically used to produce hot mix asphalt (HMA) for paving roads, ensuring that the asphalt remains stable during mixing and application. Its properties help create durable and long-lasting road surfaces.

  3. Pavement Maintenance:
    This grade of bitumen is also used for the maintenance and repair of existing roads and pavements, providing a resilient and flexible material to fix cracks and holes in asphalt surfaces.

  4. Industrial Asphalt Applications:
    Due to its high performance, VG30 is often used in industrial applications requiring heavy-duty performance, such as airport runways, container yards, and other infrastructure projects subjected to high traffic loads.

  5. Waterproofing:
    It is used in creating waterproofing layers in roofing applications, providing protection against water infiltration and offering long-lasting coverage in industrial buildings and construction sites.
