3、1. SCOPE 1.1. The direct adhesion test is used to determine the adhesion strength of hot-poured asphalt crack sealant at the application temperature as specified in MP 25 and PP 85. 1.2. The adhesion test is a test of fracture. The object of the test is to apply tensile forces to the interface betwe

4、en sealant and aluminum end pieces. Sealant is confined between two half-cylindrical aluminum end pieces. The applied force and displacement can be recorded as functions of time. Energy required to break the bond can be calculated by measuring the area under the load-displacement curve. This energy

5、can be considered a measure of bonding. In addition, the maximum force to failure can be reported as adhesion strength. 1.3. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish and f

6、ollow appropriate health and safety practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 2. REFERENCED DOCUMENTS 2.1.

Standard laboratory caution should be used in handling hot asphalt crack sealant in accordance with ASTM D5167, and when using the direct tension tester (DTT). Required safety procedures should be followed when chemical agents are used.

20、 8. PREPARATION OF APPARATUS 8.1. The DTT bath must be adjusted to a specific temperature. The sitting posts must be leveled to function properly. 9. CALIBRATION AND STANDARDIZATION 9.1. Temperature of the ovens should be calibrated according to each users quality assurance program. 9.2. Temperature

To store the sealant, it is recommended that a can or plastic-lined box be used as a container. The mold

25、 must be of sufficient size that the sealant depth is no greater than 100 mm to allow for rapid cooling. 10.3. Adjust the ovens temperature to recommended pouring temperature for the sealant being tested. 10.4. Turn on the DTT machine, load the program, and cool the test chamber to test temperature.
