The effects of heat and air aredetermined from changes in physical test values as measuredbefore and after the oven treatment. An optional procedure isprovided for de
7、termining the change in sample mass.3.2 Precision values for this test method have been devel-oped for viscosity at 140F (60C); ductility at 60F (15.6C);and mass change.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method indicates approximate change in prop-erties of asphalt during conventional hot-mixing a
8、t about302F (150C) as indicated by viscosity and other rheologicalmeasurements. It yields a residue which approximates theasphalt condition as incorporated in the pavement. If themixing temperature differs appreciably from the 302F(150C) level, more or less effect on properties will occur. Thistest
9、method also can be used to determine mass change, whichis a measure of asphalt volatility.5. Apparatus5.1 OvenThis shall be a double-walled electrically heatedconvection-type oven.

34、ws the samplecontainers to cool in a horizontal position, with each containerin the same horizontal plane. The rack shall be constructed ina way that allows air to flow freely around each container withat least 1 in. (2.5 cm) clearance between containers and at least1 in. (2.5 cm) clearance between
35、the containers and any solidsurface.6. Determination of Oven Preheat Time6.1 Determine the preheat time for the oven in accordancewith either 6.1.1 or 6.1.2. If Section 6.1.1 is used, thisdetermination must be made for each oven, and shall berepeated at least annually or whenever environmental condi
36、-tions or the test location change. If Section 6.1.2 is used, noannual determination is necessary.6.1.1 Adjust the oven control thermostat to the setting thatwill be used during the test. Select this setting so that when theoven is fully loaded and the air is on, the oven will equilibrateat 325 6 1F
37、 (163 6 0.5C), as indicated by the testthermometer. Turn the oven on and simultaneously record thestart time to the nearest whole minute. Determine and recordthe temperature of the oven at 15-minute intervals. Continuethis process until the oven reaches thermal equilibrium. Ther-mal equilibrium is c
38、onsidered to be the time when the oventemperature does not vary by more than 1F (0.5C) betweentwo consecutive readings. The oven preheat time is the timethat it takes to reach thermal equilibrium plus an additional 30minutes.6.1.2 In lieu of completing the steps described in Section6.1.1, a minimum
39、preheat time of 4 hours may be used.7. Preparation of Oven7.1 Position the air outlet orifice so that it is14 in. 618 in.(6 mm 6 3 mm) from the opening of the glass container. Theorifice shall also be so positioned that the jet blows horizontallyinto the central arc of the opening of the circling gl
40、asscontainer.7.2 Position the thermometer specified in 5.3 so that the endof the bulb of the thermometer is within 1 in. (25.4 mm) of animaginary line level with the center of the shaft holding therevolving carriage.7.3 Level the oven so that the horizontal axes of the glasscontainers when in positi
41、on in the carriage are level to within6 1.0.7.4 Start the fan. The fan shall remain on whenever the ovenheater is on and the oven door is closed. This standard permits(but does not require) the fan to be stopped when the oven dooris opened. Stopping the fan may be accomplished manually,with an elect
42、ronic door interlock, or through other means.7.5 Preheat the oven for the preheat time determined inSection 6 or longer prior to testing with the control thermostatadjusted to the setting that will be used during the test. Selectthis setting so that when the oven is fully loaded and the air ison, th
43、e oven will equilibrate at 325 6 1F (163 6 0.5C), asindicated by the test thermometer.NOTE 2Because the presence of sample containers affects the tem-perature distribution in the oven, containers should be present in the ovenwhen the thermostat setting is determined. The use of empty containers isac
44、ceptable for this purpose.8. Procedure8.1 The sample as received shall be free of water. Heat thesample in its container with a loosely fitted cover in an ovennot to exceed 302F (150C) for the minimum time necessaryto ensure that the sample is completely fluid. Manually stir thesample but avoid inco
45、rporating air bubbles.8.2 Pour 35 6 0.5 g of the sample into each of the requiredglass containers, providing sufficient material for characteriz-ing tests which are to be run on the residue.8.3 Immediately after pouring the sample into a glasscontainer, turn the container to a horizontal position. R
46、otate thecontainer slowly for at least one full rotation, and attempt topre-coat its cylindrical surface. It is not necessary to pre-coatthe open end of the container, and care should be taken toprevent the sample from flowing out of the container duringthis step. Place the container horizontally in
47、 a clean coolingrack that is maintained in a draft-free, room-temperaturelocation away from ovens and other sources of heat.NOTE 3Complete pre-coating may not be possible for certain binders.NOTE 4For maximum precision in determining mass change, thecooling rack should be in a location that is the s
48、ame temperature andhumidity as the balance used for measuring the mass of the containers.NOTE 5Static electricity may cause unstable mass measurements, duein part to the characteristics of the glass sample containers. This problemcan be minimized by mounting a passive ion source inside the balancedr
49、aft shield.33One such ion source is available as model 2U500 from NRD Inc., 2937 AltBoulevard North, Grand Island NY 140721292.D2872 12148.3.1 Allow the glass sample containers to cool in thecooling rack for a minimum of 60 min, and a maximum of 180min.8.3.2 When mass change is being determined, use twoseparate containers for this determination. After cooling, de-termine the mass of these containers using an analyticalbalance having a resolution of 0.001 g or better. Separatelyplace each container vertically on the balance,
