Penetration Test on Bitumen
The following...
Question
The following general statements may be made about the penetration value and softening point of bitumen
Open in App
Solution
Softening point of a sample is lower so at the same temperature viscosity of sample will be lower, hence penetration value of a sample will be more.
Hence, the correct option is (b).
