oxidized / air-blown asphalt/bitumen Explanation: That's the "oxiasfalto"; you can Google it in Spanish and you'll find it's "asfalto oxidado por una corriente de aire" Imprimación is usually "priming", check if it suits your context. Asphalt (CAS No. 8052-42-4), more commonly referred to as bitumen in Europe, is a dark brown to black, cement-like semisolid or solid or viscous liquid produced by the non-destructive distillation of crude oil during petroleum refining. Oxidized asphalt (CAS No. 64742-93-4), also called air-blown or air-refined asphalt, is asphalt (CAS No. 8052-42-4) that has been treated by blowing air through it at elevated temperatures to produce physical properties required for the industrial use of the final product. http://www.inchem.org/documents/cicads/cicads/cicad59.htm Blown Bitumen Bitumen oxidized by blowing a stream of air though the heated material, which makes it more rubbery and raises its softening temperature, for use as bonding compound http://www.dreamghar.com/b1dic.htm HTH, best regards, Patricia |
