Bitumen is a mixture of organic liquids that are highly sticky, black, viscous, and entirely soluble in carbon disulfide and primarily composed of highly condensed polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Naturally, occurring bitumen is a tar-like form of petroleum which is so dense, heavy, and thick that it must be heated or diluted before it will flow. Bitumen mostly contain sulfur and various heavy metals such as vanadium, lead, nickel, chromium, mercury, and other toxic elements.
Market Dynamics
Due to highly sticky and viscous nature of bitumen, it is widely used as a waterproofing agent in roofs of residential and commercial buildings such as shopping malls and airports. Bituminous waterproofing is done to protect the roof of a building from water leakage and seepage. Natural bitumen is a tar-like form of petroleum that is dense, thick, and heavy. It comprises sulfur and various heavy metals such as vanadium, lead, nickel, chromium, mercury, and other toxic elements. Its classification is majorly based on the chemical properties as well as viscosity.When the bitumen is mixed with organic amines and amides, better adhesive properties can be achieved. When it is mixed with lime and fly ash, it provides smooth and excellent surfaces. These properties facilitate the usage of bitumen as a chemical additive.
