1、Designation: D6929 10Standard Practice forFreezing of Emulsified Asphalts1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6929; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses
2、 indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 Emulsified asphalt is normally damaged by freezingtemperatures, but special
3、ly formulated materials are expectedto pass this practice.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This practice does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theres
4、ponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Significance and Use2.1 Certain agencies, who desire to use, store, or transportemulsified asphalt under less than ideal weather c
5、onditions,may require that the product remain homogeneous (unbroken)after being subjected to temperatures of 18C.3. Sample Conditioning3.1 All emulsified asphalts shall be properly stirred toachieve homogeneity.3.2 All emulsified asphalts with viscosity testing require-ments of 50C shall be heated t
6、o 50 6 3C in the originalsample container in a water bath or oven. The container shouldbe vented to relieve pressure. After the sample reaches 50 63C, stir the sample to achieve homogeneity.3.3 Emulsified asphalts with viscosity testing requirementsof 25C should be mixed or stirred at 25 6 3C in the
7、 originalsample container to achieve homogeneity.NOTE 1Emulsified asphalts with viscosity testing requirements of25C may be heated and stirred as specified in 3.2, if necessary. In theevent the 3.2 method is used, the sample should be cooled to 25 6 3C.4. Apparatus4.1 FreezerCapable of maintaining a
8、 test temperature of-1865C.4.2 Metal Containersuch as a 500 mL press-top can.4.3 Glass Stirring Rodof optional size.5. Procedure5.1 Place approximately 400 g of the emulsified asphalt in aclean metal container.5.2 Expose the emulsified asphalt in the closed container toan air temperature of 18 6 5C
9、for 12 to 18 consecutivehours.5.3 At the expiration of the freezing period, permit theemulsified asphalt to thaw by exposure of the container toambient temperature.5.4 Repeat the freezing and thawing periods until theemulsified asphalt has been subjected to three cycles offreezing and thawing.5.5 Af
10、ter the third cycle, the emulsified asphalt may behomogeneous or may have separated into distinct layers whichcannot be rendered homogeneous by stirring at laboratorytemperature.6. Report6.1 Report the result of this practice as either Homogeneousor Broken.7. Keywords7.1 asphalt; asphalt emulsion; c
