2、 Method of Test for Measuring Adhesion of Hot-Poured Crack Sealant Using Direct Adhesion Tester AASHTO Designation: TP 89-10 (2015)11. SCOPE 1.1. The direct adhesion test is used to determine the adhesion strength of hot-poured crack sealant at the application temperatures. 1.2. The adhesion test is

3、 a test of fracture. The object of the test is to apply tensile forces to the interface between sealant and aluminum end pieces. Sealant is confined between two half-cylindrical aluminum end pieces. The applied force and displacement can be recorded as functions of time. Energy required to break the

4、 bond can be calculated by measuring the area under the load-displacement curve. This energy can be considered a measure of bonding. In addition, the maximum force to failure can be reported as adhesion strength. 1.3. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, asso

5、ciated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish and follow appropriate health and safety practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 2.

17、.3. Thermometer (temperature detector)Verify the calibration of the temperature-sensing device to 0.1C every 6 months in accordance with ASTM E1 or ASTM E220, as applicable. 10. PREPARATION OF SAMPLES AND TEST SPECIMENS 10.1. All adhesion strength measurements must be performed on rehomogenized seal

18、ant. Follow the procedure for homogenization given in ASTM D5176. It is recommended that a minimum of 400 g of sealant be homogenized. 10.2. Once homogenized, hot sealant should be molded, cooled, and stored for later use. To store the sealant, it is recommended that a can or plastic-lined box be us

19、ed as a container. The mold must be of sufficient size that the sealant depth is no greater than 100 mm to allow for rapid cooling. 10.3. Adjust the ovens temperature to recommended pouring temperature for the sealant being tested. 10.4. Turn on the DTT machine, load the program, and cool the chille
