34、ed.5. Sample Preparation5.1 Emulsified Asphalt ResidueIf the sample is a residualproduct recovered from emulsified asphalt by means of TestMethods D6934, D6997, D7403, or Practice D7497, stir thecontents and immediately pour portions of the residue intosuitable molds for making the required tests. R

35、esidue obtainedfrom lower-temperature emulsion recovery procedures shall bebrought to a temperature of at least 135 C prior to pouring. Ifan emulsified asphalt residue does not meet the ductilityrequirements, this may be indicative of the presence of foreignmatter. If it is suspected that there is f

36、oreign matter in theresidue, the residue may be strained through a 300-m (No. 50)sieve that has been preheated at 135 6 5 C 275 6 10 Fprior to pouring into the test molds.5.2 Unaged SampleIf the sample is an asphalt binder,carefully heat the sample in a covered container to preventlocal overheating

37、until it has become sufficiently fluid to pour.Use an oven set at 135 6 5 C 275 6 10 F for sampleheating.5.3 Aged SampleIf the sample is a conditioned residueobtained from Test Method D1754/D1754M or D2872, com-bine the residue into a single container, cover, and heat in anoven set at 135 6 5 C 275

38、6 10 F. (See Note 3.)5.4 Cut-Back Asphalt ResidueIf the sample is a residualproduct recovered from cut-back distillation by means of TestMethod D402/D402M, stir the heated residue and immediatelypour portions of the residue into suitable molds for making therequired tests.NOTE 3In those cases where

39、the samples are not sufficiently fluid topour at 135 6 5 C 275 6 10 F, higher temperatures may be used.6. Procedure6.1 Assemble three molds on a brass plate. Thoroughly coatthe surface of the plate and interior surfaces of the sides a anda, Fig. 1, of the mold with a thin layer of release agent topr

40、event the test material from sticking. The plate upon whichthe mold is placed shall be flat and level so that the bottomsurface of the mold will be in contact throughout. After samplepreparation as described in Section 5, thoroughly stir thesample and pour into the mold. In filling the mold, take ca

41、re notto disarrange the pieces of the mold, thus distorting thespecimen shape. Pour the material in a thin stream back andforth from end to end of the mold until the mold is more thanlevel full.Allow the filled mold to cool to room temperature for35 6 5 min. Then place it in the water bath at test t

42、emperaturefor 35 6 5 min. Remove the test specimens from the waterbath, lightly dry top of mold with paper towel or cotton rag,then immediately trim the excess material with a hot trimmingtool to make the molds just level full. (See Note 4.)6.2 Keeping Specimen at Standard TemperaturePlace thetrimme

43、d specimen and mold in the water bath at the specifiedtemperature for 90 6 5 min prior to testing. Remove thespecimen from the plate by a shearing action between speci-men and plate, avoiding any bending of the specimen.6.3 TestingAttach the rings at each end of the clips to thepins or hooks in the

44、testing machine and ensure that side piecesa and a have been removed. Pull the two clips apart at auniform speed as specified until the specimen ruptures orreaches the length limitations of the testing machine. Measurethe distance in centimetres through which the clips have beenpulled to produce rup

45、ture or final length.6.3.1 A normal test is one in which the material rupturesnear the center of the specimen or reaches the length limita-tions of the testing machine. A rupture occurring at either clipshall not be considered normal.6.3.2 If the sample comes in contact with the surface of thewater

46、or the bottom of the bath, the test shall not be considerednormal. Adjust the specific gravity of the bath by using aspecific gravity additive as described in 4.8 so that the testspecimen neither comes to the surface of the water, nor touchesthe bottom of the bath at any time during the test. (See N

47、ote 5.)NOTE 4A critical dimension of the ductility mold is the width at thecross section of the mold. Measure and record the cross section distanceand compare to the specifications listed in Fig. 1. In addition, best practicerecommends etching a uniform identification of letters or numbers on themol

48、d set clips and side pieces so that the mold pieces are used as a set.D113 173NOTE 5Some additives used to adjust the specific gravity of the waterbath are toxic and can cause corrosion of the testing machine. If specificgravity adjustments have been made, it is recommended to wear gloveswhen placin

49、g hands in the bath fluid. Frequent bath fluid changes arerecommended to prevent damage to the testing machine.7. Report7.1 Report the average of three normal tests as the ductilityof the sample. If a normal test is not obtainable, report theductility as being unobtainable under the conditions of the test.If rupture does not occur due to length limitations of the testingmachine, report ductility as the length limitation in cm+ (forexample, 150 cm+). If this testing is performed
