Performance Grade (PG) Bitumen

The performance grade of bitumen or PG is the latest standard of the world.This method is a relatively new method that classifies bitumen based on the temperature conditions of different regions. In this method, the mechanical properties of bitumen are examined from completely scientific methods. In this method, a temperature range is assigned to the bitumen, and the consumer can choose the appropriate bitumen according to his desired location. Today, for polymer modified bitumen and pure bitumen according to the standard, a performance grade or PG is defined according to temperature and environmental conditions. The wider range or range of PG of a compound means more desirable properties and higher resistance. By launching and installing the most advanced SHARP devices, Refinery Oil’s Company is able to offer bitumen to its customers in a new functional way.

Penetrating

The use of penetrating bitumen is mainly in road construction. Having 6 complexes in 6 refineries in Iraq & UAE, Refinery Oil’s Company is able to produce all grades of road construction bitumen in accordance with national and international standards

For areas with hotter climates, harder bitumen (lower degree of penetration) is used, and for areas with colder climates, looser bitumen (higher degree of penetration) is used
