Sample Conditioning for Testing3.1 All emulsions with viscosity requirements of 50Cshould be heated to 50 6 3C in the original sample containerin a 71C water bath or oven.
17、 The container should be ventedto relieve pressure.After the sample reaches 50 6 3C, stir thesample to achieve homogeneity.COMPOSITIONWATER CONTENT4. Scope4.1 This test method covers the procedure for determiningthe water content of an emulsified asphalt by reflux distillationusing a water trap.5. S
18、ignificance and Use5.1 This test method measures the amount of water presentin the emulsified asphalt, as distinguished from either bitumenor petroleum solvent.6. Apparatus and Materials6.1 Metal StillThe metal still (Fig. 1(a) shall be a verticalcylindrical vessel, preferably of copper, having a fa
19、ced flangeat the top to which the head is tightly attached by means of aclamp. The head shall be made of metal, preferably brass orcopper, and shall be provided with a tubulation 25.4 mm (1 in.)in inside diameter.6.2 Glass StillThe glass still (Fig. 1(b) shall be a short-neck, round-bottom flask, ma
20、de of well-annealed glass, andhaving an approximate capacity of 500 mL.6.3 Heat SourceThe heat source used with the metal stillshall be a ring gas burner of 100-mm (4-in.) inside diameter oran electric mantle heater. The heat source for the glass stillshall be either an ordinary gas burner or an ele
21、ctric heater.6.4 CondenserThe condenser shall be a water-cooledreflux glass-tube type, having a jacket not less than 400 mm inlength, with an inner tube 9.5 to 12.7 mm in outside diameter.The end of the condenser shall be ground to an angle of 30 65 from the vertical axis of the condenser.A=45to55mm
22、 E=25to38mmB = 14 to 16 mm F = 186 to 194 mmC=12to16mm H=18to19mmD = 235 to 255 mmFIG. 1 Apparatus for Determining Water ContentD2440426.5 TrapThe trap shall be made of annealed glass con-structed in accordance with Fig. 1(c) and shall be graduated in0.10-mL divisions from 0 to 2 mL, and in 0.20-mL
23、divisionsfrom2to25mL.6.6 SolventXylol or other petroleum distillate conformingto the following distillation requirements: 98 % distills be-tween 120 and 250C. This distillation shall be conducted inaccordance with Test Method D86.7. Sample7.1 Obtain a representative sample of the material for testus
24、ing standard procedures as specified in Practice D 140.NOTE 1The difficulties in obtaining representative samples for thisdetermination are unusually great, so that the importance of samplingcannot be too strongly emphasized.8. Procedure8.1 When the material to be tested contains less than 25 %water
25、, place 100 6 0.1 g of sample in the still. When thematerial contains more than 25 % water, use a 50 6 0.1-gsample. Thoroughly mix the sample to be tested with 200 mLof solvent by swirling, taking proper care to avoid any loss ofmaterial.8.2 Connect the still, trap, and condenser by means oftight-fi
26、tting corks as shown in Fig. 1(a) or (b). Adjust the endof the condenser in the trap to a position which will allow theend to be submerged to a depth of not more than 1 mm belowthe surface of the liquid in the trap after distillation conditionshave been established. When using the metal still, inser
27、t aheavy paper gasket, moistened with the solvent, between thelid and flange before attaching the clamp.8.3 When the ring burner is used with the metal still, placeit about 76.2 mm above the bottom of the still at the beginningof the distillation, and gradually lower it as the distillationproceeds.
28、Regulate the heat so that the condensate falls fromthe end of the condenser at a rate of from 2 to 5 drops persecond. Continue the distillation at the specified rate until nowater is visible on any part of the apparatus and a constantvolume of water is obtained in the trap. Remove any persistentring
29、 of condensed water in the condenser tube by increasing therate of distillation for a few minutes.9. Calculation and Report9.1 Calculate the water content as follows:Water content, % 5 A/B!3 100 (1)where:A = volume of water in trap, mL, andB = original weight of sample, g.9.2 Report the result as “.

32、 Scope11.1 This test method is used to identify cationic emulsions.Positively charged particles are classified as cationic.12. Significance and Use12.1 Cationic emulsions are identified by the migration ofthe particles to a negatively charged electrode (cathode) bymeans of a direct current.13. Appar

35、 within the limits specified in this test method.13.7 Thermometer, ASTM No. 19C or 19F conforming tothe requirements of Specification E1.14. Procedure14.1 Heat the emulsion to be tested to 50 6 3C, in a 71 63C water bath. Stir the emulsion thoroughly to ensure unifor-mity of temperature.FIG. 2 Parti
36、cle Charge TesterD24404314.2 Pour the emulsion to be tested into the 250-mL beakerto a height that will allow the electrodes to be suspended 25.4mm in the emulsion. To facilitate suspension of the electrodes,insert the glass rod or equivalent between the two electrodesunder the insulator. Place the
37、ends of the glass rod orequivalent on the two opposite top edges of the beaker. Anapparatus capable of manual height adjustment to insulate andsuspend electrode assembly in emulsion may be used ifdesired.14.3 Connect the electrodes, that have been properlycleaned (Note 2), to the dc source.NOTE 2New
38、 electrodes and electrodes to be re-used should becleaned in the following sequence:1. Wash with distilled water,2. Wash with a suitable asphalt solvent,3. Wash with isopropyl or ethyl alcohol, and4. Wash with distilled water.14.4 Adjust the current to at least 8 mA with the variableresistor and sta
39、rt timing with a suitable timing device. (The 8mA is a minimum current value. Higher current levels may bespecified. The current used shall be reported.)14.5 When the current drops to 2 mA or at the end of 30min, whichever occurs first, disconnect the current source andgently wash the electrodes wit
40、h a smooth, thin stream ofdistilled water.14.6 Observe the asphalt deposit on the electrodes. Acationic emulsion will deposit a discernible amount of asphalton the cathode (negative electrode) while the anode (positiveelectrode) will be relatively clean.Any evidence of a deposit ofasphalt on the cat
41、hode which is clearly discernible whencompared to the anode is to be considered passing.NOTE 3If the emulsion does not produce conclusive results and it isa cationic slowsetting grade, then proceed to Section 46, “Identificationof Cationic SlowSet Emulsion.”15.

Scope17.1 This test method utilizes the Saybolt Furol viscometerto measure the consistency of an asphalt emulsion. It isapplicable to all the emulsions specified i
45、n SpecificationsD 977 and D 2397.18. Significance and Use18.1 Viscosity has significance in the use of asphalt emul-sions because it is a property which affects their utility. Whenused in application types of construction, the material must bethin enough to be uniformly applied through the spray bar
46、 ofdistributor, yet thick enough so that it will not flow from thecrown or grade of the road. For mixing grade emulsions, theviscosity may affect mixibility and resulting thickness of filmon the aggregate. The viscosity of many emulsions is affectedby shear. Therefore, strict adherence to test proce
47、dure isnecessary to achieve precision.19.
