Product Overview
Penetration Bitumen 35/50
Penetration Bitumen 35/50: This is a semi-hard grade penetration bitumen. Bitumen 35/50 is made by the distillation of vacuum bottom or vacuum residue feedstock.
In general, this product is suitable for road construction, asphalt pavement production and many other applications, which will be fully explained in the “Applications” section.
An item common to all grades of penetration bitumen is the thermoplastic property that causes it to become softer at higher temperatures and harder at lower temperatures.
So the state of bitumen depends on temperature. The relationship between temperature and rigidity of bitumen depends on the type of crude oil and its refining method.
Penetration Bitumen 35/50 Technical Properties
Penetration Bitumen 35/50 is a hard-grade paving bitumen derived from the distillation of crude oil. It is classified by its penetration value of 35 to 50 dmm at 25°C, indicating a stiff consistency. It offers excellent durability, high softening point, and outstanding weather and water resistance, making it highly suitable for heavy-duty paving and road works.
Typical Properties:
-
Penetration: 35–50 dmm
-
Softening Point: 50–58°C
-
Ductility: >100 cm at 25°C
-
Flash Point: >230°C
-
Solubility in TCE: >99.5%
Penetration Bitumen 35/50 Applications
-
Road Construction – Used as a primary binder in hot mix asphalt for highways, motorways, and runways where a hard-grade bitumen (Road Bitumen 35/50) is required.
-
Surface Dressing – Ideal for wearing courses and surface treatments in warm climates, offering resistance to deformation under heavy traffic.
-
Industrial Paving – Paving Bitumen 35/50 Applied in industrial zones and heavy-load pavements where stability and long service life are critical.
-
Binder in Bituminous Membranes – Acts as an effective waterproofing and binding agent in roofing and sealing systems.
-
Blending Material – Used to produce modified grades by mixing with softer binders or polymer additives.
