PMB 10/40-65: High-Quality Polymer Modified Bitumen for Heavy-Duty Roads & High-Traffic Areas
Built for Polar Highways & Freeze-Thaw Corridors Combines 82°C Rutting Resistance with -34°C Crack Flexibility.
What is PMB 10/40-65 Bitumen?
PMB 10/40-65 designed for high-performance road construction, in high-traffic highways and road surfaces exposed to significant vehicular load and climatic fluctuations. With a penetration grade of 10-40 dmm It prevents surface rutting, cracking, deformation, and offers superior wear resistance
It delivers unmatched durability for
- High-traffic highways & expressways
- Urban Infrastructure
- Hot Mix Asphalt
- Airport runways
- Waterproofing Membrane Roll
- Port pavements
- Industrial zones
Key Specifications
- Penetration Value (dmm): 10–40 (ASTM D5)
- Softening Point (°C): 65 (ASTM D36)
- Flash Point (°C): ≥ 220 (ASTM D92)
- Elastic recovery at 15°C, % Min: ≥ 50 (ASTM D6084)
Compliance
- IS 15462 | NFPA 30 | ASME | BPVC
Why PMB 10/40-65 Bitumen
Stands Out
1.Elasticity
- Provides flexibility and resilience, ensuring long-lasting road performance.
2.Durability
- Resists rutting, cracking, and deformation under heavy traffic.
3.Heavy-Load Performance
- Ideal for highways, industrial zones, and urban roads.
4.Superior Flexibility
- Flexibility across a wide range of temperatures, preventing cracks.
5.Temperature Stability
- Resists softening and rutting in hot climates and heavy traffic.
6.NFPA Fire Safety Compliance
- Flash point ≥ 220°C ensures safe storage and transport.
