2、od of Test for Evaluation of Asphalt Release Agents (ARAs) AASHTO Designation: TP 102-161Release: Group 3 (August 2016) 1. SCOPE 1.1. This method covers the laboratory performance evaluation of asphalt release agents (ARAs). These ARAs are used for coating metal on truck beds, pavers, rollers, slat

3、elevators, and hand tools to prevent asphalt binder or hot mix asphalt (HMA) from adhering. The ARAs should perform this function without causing degradation (stripping) of the HMA. 1.2. This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. It does not purport to address all safe

4、ty concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 2.

10、te CFR Title 29, Hazard Communication 3. SUMMARY OF TEST METHOD 3.1. The test method uses three key performance measures: 3.1.1. In the Asphalt Stripping Test, a sample of HMA is soaked in the ARA for seven days, alongside a control sample of ARA with no HMA. The samples are evaluated at the end of

11、the soak period to determine the degree of stripping that occurred. Gravimetric weights are also taken and calculated to determine weight loss. 3.1.2. In the Mixture Slide Test, a sample of HMA is applied to a steel plate that has been treated with the ARA. The plate is tilted to allow the HMA to sl

12、ide free. The amount of retained hot mix is recorded for each application cycle. This process is repeated two more times. The degree of adhesion to the metal plate is determined by gain in weight. 3.1.3. In the Asphalt Performance Test, hot asphalt binder is poured onto the same treated metal plate

13、used in Section 3.1.2, allowed to cool, and then pulled away. The amount of retained binder is recorded for each application cycle. This process is repeated until a minimum of 10 percent of the asphalt binder has adhered to the metal plate. The degree of adhesion to the metal plate is determined by

14、gain in weight. 3.2. The flash point, infrared spectrum (FTIR), percent solids, specific gravity, and pH of the ARA are measured and recorded. 4. SIGNIFICANCE AND USE 4.1. The Asphalt Stripping Test measures the tendency for the ARA to alter the asphalt binder or remove asphalt binder from the HMA.

15、The agent is evaluated in both its concentrated, non-diluted strength form and at the dilution ratio recommended for use by the manufacturer. 4.2. The Mixture Slide Test simulates a metal truck bed to determine the tendency of the HMA to adhere to the metal bed when the ARA is used. 4.3. The Asphalt

16、 Performance Test measures the tendency for asphalt binder to adhere to metal on truck beds, pavers, rollers, slat elevators, or tools when the ARA is used. 4.4. The HMA used for testing is made under Superpave mix design standards to provide an HMA with repeatable behavior that will not tend to exh

17、ibit stripping when exposed to water. 4.5. The flash point will be used to determine product safety. The infrared spectrum (FTIR), percent solids, specific gravity, and pH are intended to be used as reference parameters to verify product formulations of future samples. 4.6. This method is intended t

18、o determine the properties of these materials. Acceptability of a material, based upon the data generated as a result of the testing and evaluation in this practice, is the responsibility of the user. 4.7. Standard laboratory conditions are defined as a temperature of 25 4C (77 7F). 2016 by the Amer
