Users should beaware that selling mercury and/or mercury containing productsinto your state may be prohibited by state law.6. Procedure6.1 Weigh 200 to 201 grams of a representative sample ofthe emulsified asphalt into the disp
20、osable plastic drink cup.Place cup and sample in freezer until thoroughly frozen.NOTE 3Typically 0.5 grams of frozen emulsion is lost in handling thefrozen emulsified asphalt. If the desired amount of frozen emulsifiedasphalt to be tested is 200.0 grams then weigh into the drink cup 200.5grams.6.2 P
21、repare still by inserting thermometer and thermocoupleprobe through size #00 rubber stoppers, and then into the 13mm (12 in.) holes provided for in the still cover. Adjust thethermometric device so the end is 6 mm (0.25 in.) from thebottom of the still. The bulb of the second thermometric deviceshou
22、ld be adjusted to 165 mm (6.5 in.) from the bottom of thestill.6.3 Prepare the frozen emulsified asphalt sample by splittingedge of cup and partially peeling sides away from sample.Place frozen sample in previously weighed still apparatus(including lid, clamp, thermometric devices, stoppers, andgask
23、et) and weigh to 0.1 gram.6.4 Assemble apparatus and insert vacuum gauge withtubing and stopper attachment into the 13 mm (12 in.) holelocated between the thermometer holes. Immediately apply aminimum vacuum of 88 kPa below gauge (atmospheric) to thestill and contents. Maintain this vacuum throughou
24、t the distil-lation. The elapsed time from removing the sample from thefreezer to applying vacuum should not exceed two minutes.6.5 After 10 minutes apply heat from a ring burner or othersuitable heating device. The ring burner at the beginning of theheating period shall be positioned around the sti
25、ll approxi-mately 200 mm (8 in.) from the bottom of the still. Also applya small amount of heat to the connecting tube from a Bunsenburner or other suitable heating device. Other heating devicesmay require a different procedure to apply heat in the intendedmanner.NOTE 4The location of the ring burne
26、r or heating device at the startof the test is flexible.6.6 As the temperature rises to approximately 149C(300F) on the upper thermometric device, lower the burnerand continue heating until the lower thermocouple reads 135 65C (275 6 10F). This temperature should be achieved within45 minutes of init
27、ially applying the heat.6.7 Maintain the temperature of the still contents at 135 65C (275 6 10F) for 15 minutes.NOTE 5Cooling of the outside of the still may be done to preventtemperature overshoot. This can be performed by application of watersoaked toweling momentarily applied to base of the stil
28、l with dueprecaution.6.8 At the end of the heating period immediately reweighthe still apparatus and residue. The aluminum alloy still atroom temperature weighs 0.8 grams more than at 135C(275F). Correct for this error by adding 0.8 grams to the grossweight before calculating the percentage of resid
29、ue by distil-lation. Record results.6.9 Remove the lid from the still and if the residue issufficiently fluid, stir, and transfer suitable portions of theresidue into molds or containers for further testing. If theresidue is not sufficiently fluid for pouring without the incor-poration of air, quick
30、ly heat the sample to the lowest tempera-ture at which this can be achieved. Record the pouringtemperature.7.
