16、f the ratio is not constant, the liquid is non-Newtonian.3.1.4 viscositythe ratio between the applied shear stressand rate of shear is called the coefficient of viscosity.

Summary of Test Method4.1 The time is measured for a fixed volume of the liquid toflow through the capillary of a calibrated glass capillaryviscometer under an ac

18、curately reproducible head and at aclosely controlled temperature. The kinematic viscosity is thencalculated by multiplying the efflux time in seconds by theviscometer calibration factor.5. Significance and Use5.1 The kinematic viscosity characterizes flow behavior.The method is used to determine th

19、e consistency of bitumen asone element in establishing the uniformity of shipments orsources of supply. The specifications are usually at tempera-tures of 60 and 135C.6. Apparatus6.1 Viscometers, capillary-type, made of borosilicate glass,annealed, suitable for this test are described in Annex A2 an

20、dinclude the following:6.1.1 Cannon-Fenske viscometer for opaque liquids,6.1.2 Zeitfuchs cross-arm viscometer,6.1.3 Lantz-Zeitfuchs viscometer,6.1.4 BS U-Tube modified reverse flow viscometer.6.1.5 Calibrated viscometers are available from commercialsuppliers. Details regarding calibration of viscom

21、eters aregiven in Annex A3.6.2 ThermometersCalibrated liquid-in-glass thermom-eters of an accuracy after correction of 0.02C (0.04F) can beused or any other thermometric device of equal accuracy.ASTM Kinematic Viscosity Thermometers 47C and 47F con-forming to Specification E1, and IP 35C and 35F are

22、 suitablefor use at 60C (140F) and ASTM Kinematic ViscosityThermometers 110C and 110F are suitable for use at 135C(275F).6.2.1 The specified thermometers are standardized at “totalimmersion,” which means immersion to the top of the mercurycolumn with the remainder of the stem and the expansionchambe

23、r at the top of the thermometer exposed to roomtemperature. The practice of completely submerging the ther-mometer is not recommended. When thermometers are com-pletely submerged, corrections for each individual thermom-eter based on calibration under conditions of completesubmergence must be determ

24、ined and applied. If the thermom-eter is completely submerged in the bath during use, thepressure of the gas in the expansion chamber will be higher orlower than during standardization, and may cause high or lowreadings on the thermometer. Thermometric devices for thistest method must be standardize

25、d at least every 6 months.6.2.2 It is essential that liquid-in-glass thermometers becalibrated periodically using the technique given in TestMethod E77(see Appendix X1).6.3 BathA bath suitable for immersion of the viscometerso that the liquid reservoir or the top of the capillary, whicheveris upperm

26、ost, is at least 20 mm below the upper bath level, andwith provisions for visibility of the viscometer and the ther-mometer. Firm supports for the viscometer shall be provided,or the viscometer may be an integral part of the bath. Theefficiency of the stirring and the balance between heat lossesand

27、heat input must be such that the temperature of the bathmedium does not vary by more than 60.03C (60.05F) overthe length of the viscometer, or from viscometer to viscometerin the various bath positions at 60C (140F). The variation at135C (275F) must not exceed 60.03C (60.05F).NOTE 2Distilled water i

Procedure8.1 The specific details of operation vary somewhat for thevarious types of viscometers. See the detailed descriptions ofviscometers in Annex A2 for instructions for using the type ofviscom

40、eter selected. In all cases, however, follow the generalprocedure described in 8.2 to 8.8.8.2 Maintain the bath at the test temperature within60.01C (60.02F) for test temperature of 60C (140F) andwithin 60.03C (60.05F) for test temperature of 135C(275F). Apply the necessary corrections, if any, to a

41、ll ther-mometer readings.8.3 Select a clean, dry viscometer which will give an effluxtime greater than 60 s and preheat to test temperature.8.4 Charge the viscometer in the manner dictated by thedesign of the instrument, as prescribed in Annex A2.8.5 Allow the charged viscometer to remain in the bat

42、h longenough to reach the test temperature, as prescribed in AnnexA2.8.6 Start the flow of asphalt in the viscometer as prescribedin Annex A2.8.7 Measure to within 0.1 s, the time required for theleading edge of the meniscus to pass from the first timing markto the second. If this efflux time is les

43、s than 60 s, select aviscometer of smaller capillary diameter and repeat the opera-tion.8.8 Upon completion of the test, clean the viscometerthoroughly by several rinsings with an appropriate solventcompletely miscible with the sample, followed by a completelyvolatile solvent. Dry the tube by passin

44、g a slow stream offiltered dried air through the capillary for 2 min, or until the lasttrace of solvent is removed. Alternatively, the viscometer maybe cleaned in a glass cleaning oven, at a temperature not toexceed 500C (932F), followed by rinses with distilled ordeionized water, residue-free aceto

45、ne, and filtered dry air.Periodically clean the instrument with a strong acid cleaningsolution to remove organic deposits, rinse thoroughly withdistilled water and residue-free acetone, and dry with filtereddry air.NOTE 3The cleaning oven may burn off the glue that connects theviscometer tube to the

46、 holder.8.8.1 Chromic acid cleaning solution may be prepared byadding, with the usual precautions, 800 mL of concentratedsulphuric acid to a solution of 92 g of sodium dichromate in458 mL of water. The use of similar commercially availablesulphuric acid cleaning solutions is acceptable. Nonchromium-

47、containing, strongly oxidizing acid cleaning solutions may besubstituted so as to avoid the disposal problems of chromium-containing solutions.8.8.2 Use of alkaline glass cleaning solutions may result ina change of viscometer calibration, and is not recommended.9.
