SUMMARY OF DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SPECIFICATION D8239 AND AASHTO M 332-18X1.1 This specification was originally developed under thesponsorship of theAmericanAssociation of State Highway andTransportation Officials (AASHTO) as part of the StrategicHighway Research Program (SHRP) and subsequent
36、 worksponsored by AASHTO and the Federal Highway Administra-tion (FHWA). ASTMs version of this specification (Specifi-cation D8239) was modeled after and is similar to thecomparable AASHTO specification (AASHTO M 332, for-merly known as MP 19).X1.1.1 This new ASTM standard is aligned with M 332-18.A
37、ny differences are summarized below.X1.2 Differences in the Scope Section (Section 1 in BothStandards)X1.2.1 The ASTM standard references ASTM test methods,while the AASHTO standard references AASHTO test meth-ods.X1.2.2 The ASTM standard references the LTPPBind v2.0and higher software using a cumul
38、ative temperature model,while the AASHTO standard references the LTPPBind 1.0software using seven-day high temperature average.X1.2.3 The ASTM standard references a guidance standardunder development, while the AASHTO standard referencesthe existing guidance standard for use of R % for elasticproper
39、ties.X1.3 Differences in the Referenced Documents Section(Section 2 in Both Standards)X1.3.1 In most cases, the ASTM standard references ASTMdocuments, while the AASHTO standard references AASHTOdocuments.

43、in the Terminology Section (Section 3 inBoth Standards)X1.4.1 The AASHTO standard defines the term “asphaltbinder,” while the ASTM standard only references Terminol-ogy D8.X1.5 Differences in the Ordering Information Section(Section 4 in Both Standards)X1.5.1 The AASHTO standard includes a reference
44、 to theAASHTO guidance document on use of R %, while the ASTMstandard does not.X1.5.2 The ASTM standard includes paragraph 4.2.5 re-moving the Jnrdiffrequirement for “E” grades, while theAASHTO standard does not.X1.5.3 The ASTM standard includes Note 4, while theAASHTO standard does not.X1.6 Differe
45、nces in the Materials and Manufacture Sec-tion (Section 5 in Both Standards)X1.6.1 The ASTM standard allows naturally occurring as-phalts to be used for manufacturing PG-graded binders. TheAASHTO standard only allows asphalt binders from therefining of crude petroleum.X1.6.2 The AASHTO standard only
46、 allows organic modifi-ers for asphalt binders.X1.6.3 Both ASTM and AASHTO require the binder to be99.0 % soluble. However, the ASTM standard requires that“any insoluble component shall be substantially free of fibers.”The AASHTO standard does not include this requirement.D8239 185X1.6.4 For solubil
47、ity testing, the AASHTO standard allowsthe use of Test Method D5546 (withdrawn). The ASTMstandard does not.X1.6.5 The ASTM standard includes Note 6, while theAASHTO standard does not.X1.7 Differences in Other SectionsX1.7.1 Sections 610are essentially identical, except forany referenced documents as
48、 noted above and for the additionof Note 7.X1.7.2 TheAASHTO standard does not include thisAppen-dix.X1.8 Differences in the Body of Table 1X1.8.1 For high temperature grade, the ASTM standardcites the LTPPBind max pavement design temperature, whilethe AASHTO standard cites the average seven-day maxi
49、mumpavement design temperature.X1.8.2 The ASTM standard does not set a limit on Jnrdifffor“E” grades.X1.9 Differences in the Footnotes for Table 1X1.9.1 In footnote B, AASHTO provides additional optionsfor determining the grade selection temperature, while ASTMdoes not.X1.9.2 In footnote B, ASTM gives testing guidance for therotational viscosity test, while AASHTO does not.X1.9.3 In footnote C, ASTM gives more specifics forreferee viscosity
