Research Summary
Bitumen, also known as asphalt or tar, is a viscous, black, and sticky material derived from crude oil during the refining process. It is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons and is primarily composed of high-molecular-weight hydrocarbon molecules known as asphaltenes. Bitumen is commonly used in road construction and maintenance as a binder in asphalt concrete for paving roads, highways, and runways due to its adhesive and waterproofing properties. It is also utilized in roofing materials, waterproofing membranes, and as a sealant for various construction applications. Bitumen can be obtained in different forms, including solid (such as in asphalt shingles), semi-solid (asphalt cement), or liquid (bitumen emulsions or cutback bitumen). The viscosity and temperature sensitivity of bitumen are crucial factors in its application and processing, with different grades available based on specific performance requirements and climate conditions.
