Bitumens, waxes and greases are substances with a wide range of uses in industry and construction. Bitumen is often used for roads and waterproofing, wax for candles, cosmetics and surface protection, and grease as a lubricant in mechanical engineering and industry.
Test equipment for bitumens, waxes and greases is used to analyze their physical and chemical properties. They measure key parameters such as viscosity, penetrability, adhesion and resistance to temperature variations.
Many industries depend on the quality of bitumens, waxes and greases to keep their products and infrastructures running smoothly.
In the oil and petrochemical sector, it is important to test bitumens for optimum resistance to temperature variations, while specialty greases and waxes must be tested to meet the needs of industrial equipment and manufacturing processes.
In the mechanical and automotive sectors, lubricating greases protect moving parts against wear and oxidation. They need to be tested to avoid unsuitable formulations, limit failures, over-consumption of energy or shortened component lifetimes.
Thecosmetics and pharmaceutical industries use tests to analyze the purity and consistency of waxes used in the manufacture of creams and balms. Similarly, in the food industry, tests guarantee the safety of waxes used to coat fruit and cheese.
