1、Designation: D 1670 04Standard Test Method forFailure End Point in Accelerated and Outdoor Weathering ofBituminous Materials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 1670; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision

2、, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the use of a spark generatingapparatus for determination of failure due to crac

Summary of Test Method3.1 Dry, weathered, bituminous-coated test panels aregrounded and a feeler electrode is passed over the ba

7、ck of alinagraphic or ultra high sensitivity thermal fax paper placed onthe bituminous surface with the emulsion side down. Photo-copies are made of the front side of the paper on which thespots caused by the sparks appear. The photographs arecovered with an acrylic grid and the number of squarescon

8、taining the spark records are counted and reported. Spark-ing in 26 or more grid squares is representative of failure.4. Significance and Use4.1 The extent of cracking or pitting of bituminous films isa measure of the extent of deterioration due to weathering.Failure due to cracking is more accurate

9、ly determined electri-cally than visually.4.2 Failure determined by this test method will depend notonly on the characteristics of the bituminous material and theextent of weathering, but also on the film thickness, and theamount and type of mineral filler present.4.3 Tests on a similar material of

10、known weathering char-acteristics (a control) exposed at the same time as the testmaterial is strongly recommended as a check on the validity ofthe test results.5. Apparatus5.1 Any Spark-Generating Apparatus3Fig. 1 is an ex-ample of an acceptable configuration for the test feeler. Otherconfiguration

21、three laboratory Practices D 529, D 4798, andD 4799 utilize light sources with very different emissioncharacteristics. Therefore, the practices may be expected toproduce different test results. In addition, the alternate testconditions in each of the practices may also be expected toproduce differen

Detection of Cracks in Weathered Film9.1 At the end of an exposure period, remove the test panelfrom the weathering unit or outdoor exposure s

The test feeler (see Fig. 1) of the spark instrument shouldbe passed over the complete surface of the bituminous film in5 to 10 s. The number of sparks should be

24、 noted during thepass. If the number of sparkthrough points on any panel is lessthan 15, at least316 in. apart, set the panel aside for re-exposure. Make a photographic record of the rest of thespecimens showing sparking in 15 or more positions. Place oneof the photocopy sheets or linagraphic paper

Then, ifnecessary, develop the paper in the manner of an ordinaryphotographic print.9.3 Cover each photograph with the transparent countinggrid so that the outer dimensions of the gri
