SBS Polymer Modified Bitumen PG 76-16/ Performance Grade Bitumen PG 76-16

PMB Bitumen PG 76-16

Description of PMB Bitumen PG 76-16

Performance Grade Bitumen PG 76-16 is a high-performance polymer modified bitumen designed for regions with very high temperatures (up to +76°C) and moderate cold conditions (down to -16°C).
It is ideal for heavy-duty highways, high traffic areas, airport runways, freight terminals, and hot-climate regions where conventional bitumen grades fail to resist rutting and deformation.

Also, PMB Bitumen PG 76-16 is typically modified using SBS (Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene) polymer or rubber to enhance elasticity, adhesive strength, and aging resistance.

Polymner Modified Bitumen PG 76-16 is a type of asphalt binder that falls within the Superpave Performance Grading (PG) system. This classification ensures that the bitumen can perform under specified temperature conditions, making it suitable for various demanding pavement applications.

Standard

General standards applied to PG 76-16 include, among others:

• ASTM D36-22: Standard Specification for Bituminous Materials, for Use in Road Construction.
• AASHTO M 224-23: Standard Specification for Emulsified Asphalt.
• EN 12593: Bitumen for road construction – Specifications.
• ISO 9001: Quality management systems – Requirements for any organization.

Application of Performance Grade Bitumen PG 76-16

Bitumen PG 76-16 is used in high-stress and high-temperature areas, such as:

• Highways and Expressways: Widely used for high-traffic highways and expressways that face heavy and continuous traffic loads. The high-temperature performance helps resist rutting and deformation in such conditions.
• Industrial Zones and Heavy-Duty Roads: Suitable for industrial areas and roads where heavy-duty vehicles frequently operate, as Bitumen PG 82-10 can handle the stress from heavy, slow-moving vehicles.
• Airport Runways and Taxiways: Ideal for airport pavements where exposure to high temperatures and heavy aircraft loads require resistance to deformation and cracking.
• Bridges and Elevated Structures: Used on bridges and overpasses to handle thermal stresses and prevent cracking, which are common due to temperature fluctuations and high traffic loads.
• Urban Roads and High-Temperature Regions: Effective in urban environments and regions with extremely hot summers, where roads face both heavy traffic and prolonged high temperatures.

Advantage of Performance Grad PMB Bitumen PG 76-16

• Advanced Crack Resistance: Prevents low-temperature cracking in severe winter climates.
• High Rutting Resistance: Performs under extreme heat and traffic pressure.
• Exceptional Durability: Supports long-term pavement integrity under freeze-thaw stress.
• Quality Consistency: Engineered for reliable results across multiple climate conditions.

Key Features of PMB PG Bitumen 76-16

1. Superior High-Temperature Stability:
PMB 76-16 is engineered to withstand extreme heat, performing reliably at temperatures reaching 76°C. This high-temperature stability minimizes rutting and deformation, making it an ideal choice for heavy-traffic zones and hot-weather regions.

2. Reliable Low-Temperature Flexibility:
Even in severe cold—down to -16°C—this binder maintains its flexibility and resists cracking. Its performance in low temperatures ensures long-lasting durability in climates with harsh winters.

3. Enhanced Performance Through Polymer Modification:
Formulated with polymers such as SBS (styrene-butadiene-styrene) or similar elastomers, PMB 76-16 offers improved elasticity, cohesion, and structural strength. These enhancements significantly boost its resistance to thermal variations and heavy traffic loading.

Quality Control

All products undergo rigorous evaluation in our dedicated laboratory, where testing is performed in accordance with international standards. Upon request, third-party witness testing can be conducted prior to shipment. To guarantee consistency and compliance, we also appoint reputable global inspection agencies to verify the quality of bitumen before every dispatch.

Geo Chem Inspection

We are able to provide a certificate of GEO Chem inspection for all Bitumen PG projects upon request.

Health & Safety

Bitumen poses minimal health or safety risks when handled correctly and used for its intended industrial purpose. Safe working practices, along with proper personal protective equipment and adherence to hygiene standards, help ensure a secure environment for all personnel involved in storage, transport, and application.
