Summary of Test Method3.1 The solution of solvent and asphalt from a prior extrac-tion is distilled under prescribed conditions to a point wheremost of the solvent has been distilled, at which time carbondioxide gas is introduced into the distillation process to removeall traces of the ext
7、raction solvent. The recovered asphalt(distillation residue) can then be subjected to further testing asrequired.4. Significance and Use4.1 The asphalt should be extracted from the aggregate-asphalt mixture in accordance with Method A of Test MethodsD 2172 (centrifuge method) as there is some experi
8、mentalevidence that the recovered asphalt may have slightly lowerpenetration values when recovered from solutions obtainedfrom hot extraction methods.5.

Precautions7.1 CautionThe solvent listed in 6.2 should be used onlyunder a hood or with an effective surface exhaust system in awell-ventilat
19、ed area, since it is toxic to some degree asindicated below:Solvent TLV, ppmASTEL, ppmBTrichloroethylene 50 200_AThreshold limit value (TLV) as established by the American Conference ofGovernmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH), Bldg. D-7, 6500 Glenway Ave.,Cincinnati, OH 45211-4438. 1990/1991 value

Sample8.1 The sample shall consist of the solution from a previousextraction by Method A of Test Methods D 2172 of asphalt-aggreg
21、ate mixture of sufficient quantity to result in 75 to 100 gof recovered bitumen. More or less quantities of bitumen maybe recovered; however, the properties of the recovered bitumenmay not be in agreement with those recovered of the afore-mentioned quantities, and in case of a disagreement, 75 to 10
22、0g should be recovered.8.2 During the extraction process, it is important that all ofthe asphalt in the mixture be extracted as there could be someselective solvency of the asphalt and the harder, more viscouscomponents of the asphalt might be left in the mixture ifextraction is not carried to compl
23、etion.8.3 Since heavy petroleum distillates such as mineral spiritsor kerosine will affect the properties of the recovered asphalt,it is important to avoid the use of such solvents in cleaning theextraction and recovery apparatus and use only trichloroethyl-ene for cleaning. Residues of heavy petrol
24、eum solvents on theequipment may contaminate the recovered asphalt and affect itstest properties. It is also necessary to use new filter rings, cleanfelt pads, or other uncontaminated filtering media in theextraction process to avoid contamination from a previousextraction.8.4 Generally, the bitumen
25、 in mixtures will progressivelyharden when exposed to air, particularly if the mixtures are ina loose condition. Therefore, it is important to protect bitumi-nous mixtures from exposure to air and preferably to storethem in airtight containers at a temperature below 0C (32F)until they can be tested.
26、 When samples of bituminous mixture6The Monostat Corp. “Flowmeter” No. 9144 has been found satisfactory for thispurpose.7Kimball separatory funnel No. 29028 has been found satisfactory for thispurpose.8Trichloroethylene, Technical Grade, Type I, Federal Specification O-T-634,latest revision may be u

28、ethodsD 2172, they should be placed in an oven in covered containersand heated to a maximum temperature of 110C (230F) for theminimum time to obtain workability, but no longer than 30min. If the samples have been stored at a low temperature, theyshould be allowed to reach room temperature before pla
29、cingthem in the oven.9. Procedure9.1 The entire procedure, from the start of the extraction tothe final recovery, must be completed within 8 h.9.2 Centrifuge the solution from the previous extraction fora minimum of 30 min at 770 times gravity in either bottles orcentrifuge tubes in the specified ba
30、tch apparatus. If a continu-ous centrifuge is used, the extract solution shall be charged ata rate not to exceed 150 ml/min, while the unit is operating ata speed calculated to produce a centrifugal force of not lessthan 3000 times gravity.9.3 Concentrate the solution to about 200 ml by any primaryd
31、istillation operation using a flask large enough to hold all thesolution from the extraction. Transfer the residue from theprimary distillation flask, using several washes of solvent torinse all of the residue into the 250-ml distillation flask.Assemble the apparatus as shown in Fig. 1, except posit
32、ion thebottom of the aeration tube above the surface of the solution.Continue distillation until the temperature reaches 135C(275F), at which time lower the aeration tube so that the bulbis in contact with the bottom of the flask, and introduce carbondioxide gas at a low rate (approximately 100 ml/m
33、in) toprovide agitation and prevent foaming. If foaming or bumpingoccurs, introduce carbon dioxide intermittently at the begin-ning of the distillation at a rate of 100 ml/min to prevent this.When the temperature reaches 157 to 160C (315 to 320F),increase the carbon dioxide gas flow to approximately
34、 900mL/min. Maintain this gas flow rate for 10 min while alsomaintaining the temperature of the residue in the flask at 160 to166C (320 to 330F). If, after 10 min, dripping of condensedsolvent from the delivery tube is still occurring, maintain thegas flow and temperature until 5 min after the dripp
35、ing ceasesin order to flush solvent vapors from the flask. In no case shallthe time of flow of carbon dioxide gas be less than 15 min. Atthe end of this period, discontinue gas flow and heat.9.3.1 Alternative ProcedureAssemble the apparatus asshown in Fig. 1 with the separatory funnel in the thermom
36、eterhole in the cork. (It may be advantageous to insert theseparatory funnel in a separate hole drilled in the cork stopper.)Raise the aeration tube so that the bulb is above the surface ofthe solution. Fill the separatory funnel with the centrifugedsolution and open the stopcock to fill the flask a
37、pproximatelyone half full of solvent mixture. Apply low heat to the flask andstart distillation. Adjust the funnel stopcock to introduce freshsolvent at a rate that will keep the flask approximately one halffull during distillation, adding additional solvent mixture to thefunnel until all solvent ha
38、s been introduced into the distillationflask. Wash the solvent mixture container and funnel with freshsolvent to transfer all asphalt into the distillation flask. Con-tinue distillation until the temperature reaches 135C (275F),at which time lower the aeration tube so that the bulb is incontact with
39、 the bottom of the flask and introduce carbondioxide gas at a low rate (approximately 100 ml/min) toprovide agitation and prevent foaming. If foaming or bumpingoccurs, introduce carbon dioxide intermittently at the begin-ning of the distillation at a rate of 100 ml/min to prevent this.When the tempe
40、rature reaches 157 to 160C (315 to 320F),increase the carbon dioxide gas flow to approximately 900mL/min. Maintain this gas flow rate for 10 min while alsomaintaining the temperature of the residue in the flask at 160 to166C (320 to 330F). If, after 10 min, dripping of condensedsolvent from the deli
41、very tube is still occurring, maintain thegas flow and temperature until 5 min after the dripping ceasesin order to flush solvent vapors from the flask. In no case shallthe time of flow of carbon dioxide gas be less than 15 min. Atthe end of this period, discontinue the gas flow and heat.9.4 If the
42、residue in the flask is highly viscous at 163C(325F), so that dispersion of the carbon dioxide in the residueis restricted and the recovered asphalt is expected to have apenetration at 25C (77F) of less than 30, maintain the carbondioxide gas flow and temperature for 20 to 22 min.9.5 The recovered a
43、sphalt can be heated to reliquefy andportions taken for penetration, softening point, ductility, ashcontent, and kinematic and absolute viscosity determinationsas required. Ash content determinations shall be conducted onall recovered bitumens in accordance with Test MethodsD 2939 and reported with
44、other test data on the recoveredasphalt. Ash contents of recovered asphalts greater than 1 %may affect the accuracy of the penetration, ductility, softeningpoint, or viscosity tests.NOTE 1Determination of the weight of asphalt recovered serves as acheck to assure that all of the solvent has been rem
45、oved when this weightis compared with the weight of asphalt extracted as determined by TestMethods D 2172. The weight of the recovered asphalt should be correctedfor the ash content determined.10. Precision and Bias10.1 PrecisionData from the AMRL9proficiency sampledatabase from 1974 to 1992 was ana
