The invention relates to a bitumen product (1) comprising bitumen (3) and a mineral filler. In order to reduce the specific weight of the bitumen product (1) while allowing sufficient sealing effect, the mineral filler contains expanded perlite grains (2), said expanded perlite grains (2) having a closed-cell surface (4), and the expanded perlite grains (2) having a closed-cell surface (4) are not ground.
The invention relates to a method for producing an expanded granular material from sand grain-like mineral material which comprises a bound blowing agent, for example for producing an expanded granular material from perlite sand, wherein the sand grain-like mineral material is introduced into a feed opening at one end of a furnace shaft, conveyed along a thermal treatment section in a conveying direction, preferably by force of gravity, heated to a critical temperature while being conveyed through the thermal treatment section, starting at which temperature the sand grain-like mineral material plasticizes and begins to expand as a result of the blowing agent, and the expanded granular material is discharged at another end of the furnace shaft.
