It also provides arationale by which the user may judiciously select a materialfor a specific job application from among those generallyrec

Caution, therefore, must be exercised at all times inhandling these materials to prevent fire or an explosion.6. Recommended Uses6.1 The recommendations sho

Slow curing cutbacksalternatively may be made directly by distillation. Uponexposure to atmospheric condit

32、ions, the highly volatilenaphtha-type solvent in rapid-curing blends evaporates quicklyand leaves a hard, viscous-base asphalt to function withaggregate in the road. A less volatile kerosine-type solventevaporates more slowly from medium-curing blends and leavesa base asphalt of medium hardness or v

33、iscosity. Slow-curingblends contain a low-volatility fuel-oil type solvent and thusrequire the longest curing period. They leave a soft, low-viscosity asphalt on the aggregate. Both the curing rate andcharacteristics of the residual asphalt are factors to be consid-ered in the selection of liquid as

34、phalts for various uses.However, primary consideration should be given to hardness orviscosity of the remaining asphalt in relation to gradation of theaggregate with which it is used. One-size aggregates, oropen-graded ones deficient in fines, require harder asphaltswhile softer materials may be use

Applicationsthat require infiltration of the agg

Surface treatment and seal coattypes require a viscosity low e
