Polymer modified bitumen

Polymer Modified Bitumen (PMB) is used to enhance the quality of bitumen emulsion. Certain polymers or additives are added in the original bitumen mix to inculcate additional binding qualities. The addition alters the chemical configuration andor physical mechanical properties of the original bitumen in order to improve its resistance power to weather conditions or change in temperature. In actual, it alters its elasto viscous behavior of the bitumen to tolerate high stress.Use of PMB in road construction ensures smooth transportation of heavy loaded vehicles. Due to the fact that these are equipped with amazing resistant qualities i.e. water repellent, heat resistant, crack resistant etc. which makes it perfect for increased road durability.
