ATDM is producer and supplier of Oxidized Bitumen 115/15 for export markets in different packing options, including 25 kg cartons, kraft bags, meltable plastic bags, steel drums and bulk shipment.
Bitumen 115/15 is a hard oxidized bitumen produced by blowing hot air into penetration-grade petroleum bitumen under controlled temperature conditions. The grade 115/15 refers to a softening point around 110–120°C and penetration around 10–20 dmm.
This grade is mainly used in waterproofing, roofing membranes, pipe coating, sealants, bituminous paints, carpet tile backing, insulation compounds and construction adhesives.
Pure Bitumen 115/15 Made by Blowing Hot Air
This oxidized grade is manufactured from pure petroleum bitumen through a controlled air-blowing process. Hot air is injected into the heated bitumen until the material reaches the required hardness, softening point and penetration range.
As oxidation continues, the material becomes harder, more stable and more suitable for waterproofing, sealing, coating and industrial applications.
This process gives Bitumen 115/15 important properties such as:
- Thermoplastic behavior
- Strong adhesion
- Water resistance
- Resistance to acids and alkalis
- Good durability in industrial and construction applications
This product contains the main natural components of petroleum bitumen, including saturates, aromatics, resins and asphaltenes. These components help create the final hardness, bonding strength and waterproofing performance of the grade.
Application of Bitumen 115/15
Damp-proofing
115/15 is used in damp-proofing systems where protection against moisture and water penetration is required. Because of its hard structure and adhesive properties, it can be used in waterproofing layers, protective coatings and sealing compounds.
For better performance in some applications, Bitumen 115/15 can be combined with suitable modifiers or additives depending on the final formulation and project requirement.
b. Canal sealer
Bitumen 115/15 can be used in canal sealing and hydraulic construction applications where water resistance and strong bonding are required. Its oxidized structure helps create a durable sealing layer that reduces water leakage and protects the surface against moisture damage.
This grade is suitable for use in bituminous sealing compounds, waterproofing layers and protective coatings for canal and water-retaining structures.
c. Tennis court
It is using in asphalt-based tennis court surface systems as a binder or coating component. It helps improve adhesion, hardness and resistance to heat deformation in outdoor sports flooring applications.
d. Stockyard
Our product is suitable for stockyard and industrial surface protection. It can be used in bituminous coating and sealing compounds to reduce moisture penetration, improve surface durability and protect working areas exposed to weather and heavy use.
e. Paving
The Bitumen is suitable for paving and asphalt-based repair applications. It can be used in bituminous compounds where hardness, adhesion, water resistance and surface durability are required.
f. Railroad ballast
This type of hard Bitumen may be used in bituminous binder systems for railroad ballast and track-bed stabilization. It helps improve aggregate bonding, moisture resistance and long-term durability in railway construction applications.
g. Treatment and road beds
ATDM Bitumen 115/15 is suitable for road bed treatment and asphalt-based repair compounds. Its high softening point, hardness and adhesion help improve surface stability, water resistance and durability in road construction applications.
h. Bitumen 115/15 backing carpet tile
Carpet grade Bitumen can be used in carpet tile backing where dimensional stability, flexibility and strong bonding are required. Its adhesive and thermoplastic properties make it suitable for backing compounds used in carpet tile production.
In this application, Bitumen 115/15 may be combined with rubber-modified bitumen, petroleum resin or flexible additives to create a stable backing layer. The final carpet tile can achieve better flatness, improved stability and easier production in continuous manufacturing lines.
i. Bitumen 115/15 for painting
type of paint is an economical anti-corrosion and protective coating for different building and industrial materials.
It can be applied on:
- Iron
- Steel
- Timber
- Concrete
- Fiber cement panels
- Masonry surfaces
The final coating is flexible, fast-drying, waterproof, weather-resistant and corrosion-resistant. This makes Bitumen 115/15 suitable for protective paint formulations used in construction, industrial maintenance and metal protection.
Usage of Bitumen 115/15
Bitumen 115/15 is used in industrial, construction and manufacturing applications where hardness, adhesion, waterproofing and protective performance are required.
Common uses include:
- Roofing and waterproofing systems
- Pipe coating and corrosion protection
- Bituminous paint and protective coating
- Joint sealing and crack filling
- Civil works and hydraulic applications
- Road construction and pavement repair
- Building insulation and sealing
- Adhesives and construction material additives
- Dust-binding and surface protection
- Electrical laminates and insulation compounds
- Carpet backing and synthetic turf base
- Rubber and plastic product manufacturing
Because of its high softening point and low penetration, Bitumen 115/15 is suitable for products that require heat resistance, water resistance and long-term durability.
Bonding Bitumen 115/15
Bonding Bitumen 115/15 is available in block form and can be used as a hard bituminous bonding compound. It is suitable for joint sealing, fixing bitumen roll sheets and repairing damaged or torn waterproofing membranes.
This grade can also be used as an adhesive layer between different bituminous materials where strong bonding, hardness and water resistance are required.
