PENETRATION GRADE
EN 50/70
At Mervina Energy, we provide top-quality Bitumen 50/70, a medium-hardness bitumen designed for optimal performance in diverse road construction and paving projects. With a penetration range of 50 to 70 tenths of a millimeter, this grade of bitumen strikes a perfect balance between rigidity and flexibility, making it ideal for varying climatic conditions and traffic demands.
Why Choose Bitumen 50/70?
Bitumen 50/70 is renowned for its versatility and reliability, offering consistent performance in both hot and cold environments. Its intermediate viscosity makes it well-suited for areas with moderate temperature fluctuations and diverse traffic loads. Whether you’re dealing with urban streets or medium traffic roads, Bitumen 50/70 delivers exceptional durability and longevity.
Manufactured through the distillation of crude oil, Bitumen 50/70 undergoes a specialized refining process that enhances its adhesive qualities and resistance to aging. This bitumen grade is an excellent binder for asphalt mixtures, ensuring long-lasting and high-quality paved surfaces.
Key Uses of Bitumen 50/70:
- Urban Streets: Ideal for city roads and streets with moderate traffic volumes, providing a durable and smooth surface for both vehicles and pedestrians.
- Medium Traffic Roads: Suitable for roads in commercial and residential areas, where a balanced combination of hardness and flexibility is essential.
- General Road Construction: Versatile for use in a wide range of road construction projects, from highways to local roads, ensuring reliable performance in various environments.
Bitumen 50/70’s balanced properties make it a preferred choice for regions with moderate climates, effectively resisting cracking in colder temperatures and avoiding excessive softening in hotter
