Dutch ..... Donkerbruine of zwarte vaste tot halfvaste stof, het organische of koolwaterstofhoudende deel van asfalt. Het werd in de oudheid gebruikt als een dichtingsproduct, bijvoorbeeld in het oude Egypte. Het wordt momenteel gebruikt in smeltlijmen, coatings, verven, dichtingsproducten, dakbedekking en straatbedekking. |
