What is Bitumen Used For?
Bitumen Is refined from the leftover product of crude oil.
The main use of bitumen is in road construction, where it is used as the join or bind to mixed with aggregate particles to make asphalt concrete.
Bitumen is can be used for waterproofing and sealing roofs and boats and coating buildings. In technology, bitumen plates are used to muffle sounds in machines such as computers and dishwashers.
Early photography, bitumen was spread on pewter plates and then exposed to light, resulting in black and white images being formed.

In early photography, bitumen was spread on pewter plates which were then exposed to light, resulting in black and white images being formed. Bitumen is derived naturally from petroleum or through distillation. Naturally occurring bitumen is sticky and tar-like and must be heated or diluted before it can flow. The refined form is the leftover product from the distillation of crude oil.

WHAT IS TAR ?
Tar is a dark colour or black liquid of hydrocarbons and free carbon, made from a wide variety of organic materials through destructive distillation. Tar can be made from coal, wood, petroleum, or peat.
Mineral products that join tar can be produced from fossil hydrocarbons, such as petroleum.
WHAT IS BITUMEN MEMBRANE ?
Bituminous membranes are used for waterproofing roofs, basements, below-ground structures, bridges and other structures.
WHAT IS BITUMEN ROOF ?
Bitumen has been a well known roofing material for more thousands of years, and it has a lot of benefits that perform well for roofing application. It is durable, cost effective, versatile and more importantly highly waterproof, making it an ideal process for both new build projects and refurbishment roofing projects.
Roofing felt is manufactured in the format of rolls.
Bitumen can be modified with a number of different components to provide different characteristics.
ASPHALT DEFINITION
Asphalt is most often refers to Bitumen, also known as liquid asphalt cement, a viscous form of petroleum that is used as a binder in asphalt concrete
BITUMEN DEFINITION
Bitumen (UK: /ˈbɪtjʊmɪn/, US: /bɪˈtjuːmən,baɪ-/) is a black, sticky liquid or semi-solid form of petroleum. In some countires, it is commonly referred to as asphalt.
Bitumen can be found in natural deposits or may be a refined product.
The main use of bitumen is in road construction, where it is used as the join or bind to mixed with aggregate particles to make asphalt concrete. It is also used for bituminous waterproofing products, including sealing flat roofs or for production of roofing.
WHAT IS MODIFIED BITUMEN ?
Modified bitumen is thought of as part of the built-up roofing systems that have been used for more than 100 years. It is made of combination of asphalt with polymerized rubber or plastic and strengthen with fiberglass to create a waterproof membrane.
Modified bitumen roofing is mainly used on flat commercial roofs. Also depending on the type of material, these membranes may be installed as part of a two-layer or as part of a multi-ply.
Modified bitumen typically comes in rolls that are placed directly onto the substrate. The material may be heat welded, cold-adhered.
Bitumen is an important party of our modern world. A crucial component that we use to build roads, bitumen linkes our city streets together and join cities and countries across.
bitumen is also essential to all kinds of construction projects.
Without bitumen our roads would have a very different experiance; Our cities and our houses would be very different; our lives would be less connected.
Bitumen material has countless uses and applications, and more are being recognise every year, due to the research and development done within the bitumen industry.
Bitumen has a number of other benefits, too; It is fast to install and safe to use, as well as being long lasting and hard-wearing. It is easy to maintain and 100% recyclable, which is a perfect choice for forward-thinking construction projects.

WHAT IS BITUMEN ?
Bitumen is an oil based substance. It is produced by removing the lighter fractions from heavy crude oil during the process of refining, it is known as refined bitumen. In some countires, bitumen is commonly known as “asphalt”, While some places, “asphalt” is the term used for a mixture of small stones, sand, filler and bitumen, which is used as a road paving material.
Bitumen is a black or dark-colored material that can be found in different forms, such us rock asphalt, natural bitumen, tar and bitumen derived from oil, which is referred to as petroleum bitumen.
Most of the roads around the world are paved with bitumen.
Petroleum bitumen is typically known as bitumen.
