Polymer Modified Bitumen

PMB 25/55-65

Petra Oil’s PMB 25/55-65 is an advanced polymer-modified bitumen designed to meet the needs of high-traffic highways, airport runways, and other high-load infrastructure projects. With exceptional resistance to thermal cracking and aging, this product provides long-term durability for pavement surfaces exposed to intense and fluctuating environmental conditions.

Key Specifications:

  • Penetration Grade: 25/55
  • Softening Point: 65°C
  • Standard Compliance: IS 15462:2019
  • Type: Polymer Modified Bitumen (PMB)

Main Applications of PMB 25/55-65:

  • Highways and Expressways: Ideal for high-performance highways with heavy truck and vehicle traffic. It offers a highly durable asphalt binder that resists rutting and cracking.
  • Airport Runways: Withstanding high and low temperatures, PMB 25/55-65 ensures excellent performance on airport runways where durability and temperature stability are critical.
  • Industrial Roads: Designed for industrial areas and heavy-duty roads that endure frequent exposure to heavy vehicles and equipment, providing high flexibility and resistance to damage.

Benefits of PMB 25/55-65:

  • Provides high resistance to cracking and moisture damage.
  • Long-lasting durability in fluctuating temperatures.
  • Reduced maintenance costs due to superior resilience.
