Liquid Membrane Polymer (LMP) > back to BCI products page

Liquid Membrane PolymerLMP is an asphalt polymer designed to rejuvenate, strengthen and waterproof asphalt materials used in the repair and overlay of asphalt or concrete roadway surfaces. It functions as a both a bonding compound/primer and sealer. LMP improves the strength of newly placed asphalt mix, waterproofs the asphalt or concrete surface being repaired or overlaid, and increases the durability of the repair or overlay. LMP is ideally suited for use in pothole repair and maintenance, reducing costs by minimizing preparation time and extending the life of the repair.

LMP allows patching and repair in climates and conditions where normal patching procedures fail to produce desired results. The product tolerates surface wetness and can be used in temperatures of 35 degrees F and above. LMP can be applied using hand-held sprayers or brooms for smaller jobs, or truck-mounted spray bars for overlays. Asphalt treated with LMP can be stripped using non-water-based lane stripping paints. Repairs using LMP are immediately traffic ready and minimal tracking will occur. LMP-treated asphalt is fully recyclable.

LMP is ideally suited for use in pothole repair and maintenance, reducing costs by minimizing preparation time and extending the life of the repair. Damp surfaces will not interfere with LMP. This high-performance primer does not require perfect preparation techniques and drying of the pothole is not necessary. Potholes require only marginal preparation, namely removal of deep compacted dirt, coarse contaminant debris and standing water or ice. LMP is then sprayer applied and broomed in to ensure contact with sound material. Apply enough product to obtain surface wet-out. Conventional asphalt mix is then placed in the pothole and tamped/compacted. The surface of the repair is then sprayed with LMP to waterproof the patched surface, thus preventing water ingress and freeze/thaw blow out.

Features

  • Will penetrate asphalt mixes so that the mix is waterproof and strengthened.
  • Surfaces to be primed, either asphalt or concrete need not be totally dry before application.
  • Can be used in temperatures of 35 degrees F and above.
  • Bonding strength allows for a thinner overlay top course.
  • Pothole preparation can be accomplished with high-pressure air to blow out deep compacted dirt, course contaminant debris and standing water or ice.
  • Traffic can immediately drive on the repaired patches without damage or major tracking.
  • Product is non-flammable.
