7、rasion of Slurry Surfaces3. Summary of Test Method3.1 The sweep test is effective for defining the film forma-tion stage of bituminous emulsions. A brush (designed toclosely replicate the sweeping action of a broom) exerts a forceon the aggregate used on surface treatments. Bituminousemulsion is app
8、lied to an asphalt felt disk.Aggregate is appliedand embedded into the bituminous emulsion. The sample isthen conditioned at a prescribed temperature and time periodbefore testing. A mixer abrades the surface of the sample usinga nylon brush.After one minute of abrasion, the test is stopped,any loos
9、e aggregate is removed, and the percent mass loss iscalculated.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method is useful for classifying rapid-settingbituminous emulsions and is applicable to surface treatmentsthat require a quick return to traffic. It has the capability topredict surface treatment perf
10、ormance in the formative stageusing construction components. This performance test is in-tended to evaluate the potential curing characteristics of abinder-aggregate combination to ensure that the surface treat-ment is sufficiently cured before allowing traffic onto the seal.5.

Immediately weigh the sample and record assample weight. Place the specimen in the forced draft oven.Sample production and weighing shall take no more
36、 than fourminutes.8. Conditioning8.1 The specimen is immediately placed in a forced draftoven for the specified time, temperature, and relative humiditybased on desired field performance.NOTE 3Typical testing parameters for a rapid return to traffic andquick brooming of the product have been a time
37、of one hour at 35C and30 % relative humidity. These values vary based on different climate areasof product application.8.1.1 The time and oven temperature shall be kept to atolerance of 10 % of the desired values. The tolerance of therelative humidity shall be 25 % of the desired value unlessotherwi

Thetime from conditioning oven to being placed in the testapparatus should be no greater than two minutes.NOTE 5The hand brushing of the technicians fingers across thesample has pro
40、ven to be the preferred method versus a brush for removingany loose aggregate that has not fallen off when the specimen is turnedvertically.9. Procedure9.1 Attach, then leave the specimen in the clamping devicefor 180 6 30 s. During the equilibration time, the brush issecured into the brush head and

Themixer is then turned onto Setting #1 (0.83 gyrations persecond) for 60 s. After th
