1、Designation: D 4887 99 (Reapproved 2003)Standard Practice forPreparation of Viscosity Blends for Hot RecycledBituminous Materials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4887; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of rev

2、ision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the procedure for preparation of hotrecycled bituminous blends for testing in

3、 the laboratory. Theprocedure involves an iterative trial blend process followed bythe preparation of batch blends.1.2 The batch blends can be used for extensive evaluationsuch as viscosity, penetration, ductility, aging properties (suchas Rolling Thin Film Oven or Thin-Film Oven tests, or both(RTFO

4、/TFO), composition analysis, solubility analysis, andother user-selected tests.1.3 This practice assumes that a representative reclaimedasphalt pavement (RAP) sample is extracted and the agedbinder recovered using Test Methods D 2172 and Test MethodD 1856 (this practice may be modified by using a ro

5、taryevaporator which is extensively evaluated in the minutes of the18th Pacific Coast Conference on Asphalt Specifications2)orany other acceptable test method.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user

6、 of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Practice3.1 The percentage of a recycling agent or paving-grade-asphalt req

8、uired to meet a target viscosity is initially deter-mined on a weight basis by the use of a viscosity blend chartas illustrated in Fig. 1. A 10.0 6 0.1-g (minimum) trial blendconsisting of the recycling agent or paving grade asphalt andreclaimed RAP binder is prepared in the laboratory. Theviscosity

9、 of the trial blend at 60C (140F) is compared to thetarget viscosity. If the blend viscosity is not within the limits ofSpecification D 3381 about the target value, another trial blendis prepared using adjusted proportions of the same or analternate grade modifier, or both, and the RAP binder. A bat

10、chblend larger than the trial blend can then be prepared after thetarget viscosity is achieved to facilitate additional tests.NOTE 1It is recognized that Test Method D 2171 requires 20 mL(minimum) of asphalt sample; however, due to enormous resourcesinvolved in extraction and recovery, plus conducti

11、ng a number ofiterations, a 10.0 6 0.1-g (minimum) sample is suggested to be adequatefor this practice. The accuracy of Test Method D 2171 is not significantlyaffected by the change in sample size.4. Significance and Use4.1 A standard procedure for blend preparation is essentialto ensure material qu

12、ality, specification compliance, and pro-cedural uniformity.5. Apparatus5.1 Beakers, 50-mL, 600-mL capacity or other suitablecontainers.5.2 Hot plate.5.3 Glass stirring rod.6. Procedure6.1 Weigh the RAP binder and recycling agent or paving-grade-asphalt in appropriate proportions in accordance with

13、3.1in a 10.0 6 0.1-g specimen or larger for a trial blend. Preparethe 10.0 6 0.1-g trial blend in the 50-mL container whilepreparing a larger batch (if required) in the 600-mL containeror other suitable containers.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D04 on Road andPaving Mater

Aromatic oils may not require freezing. The frozenstate facilitates chipping an

17、d weighing the desired quantities with relativeease. Weighing should be executed quickly because cold specimens mayattract moisture especially in humid environments that may result inbubbly action during heating.6.2 Place the container with the 10.0 6 0.1-g target blendsample on a hot plate at 93 to

Place the container with the sample in an ovenat 135C (275F) for 10 min and stir for 30-s durations at5-min intervals. Transfer the sample to viscosity tubes forviscosity testing at 60C (140F) as presc

19、ribed in Test MethodD 2171. Repeat the procedure until the desired viscosity isachieved.6.3 Once the desired viscosity is achieved, prepare a batchblend sample. About 200 g is normally sufficient. Weigh in a600-mL container and place in a 135C (275F) oven and stir,using a glass rod, for 1 min at eve
