7、 a material.3.1.2 relative densitythe ratio of the mass of a givenvolume of a material to the mass of the same volume of waterat the same temperature (see Note 2).NOTE 2Relative density is also described as specific gravity.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The sample is placed in a calibrated pycnometer

8、. Thepycnometer and sample are weighed, then the remainingvolume is filled with water. The filled pycnometer is brought tothe test temperature, and weighed. The density of the sample iscalculated from its mass and the mass of water displaced by thesample in the filled pycnometer.5. Significance and

9、Use5.1 Values of density are used for converting volumes tounits of mass, and for correcting measured volumes from thetemperature of measurement to a standard temperature usingPractice D 4311.6. Apparatus6.1 Pycnometer, glass, consisting of a cylindrical or conicalvessel carefully ground to receive

10、an accurately fitting glassstopper 22 to 26 mm in diameter. The stopper shall be providedwith a hole 1.0 to 2.0 mm in diameter, centrally located inreference to the vertical axis. The top surface of the stoppershall be smooth and substantially plane, and the lower surfaceshall be concave to allow al

11、l air to escape through the bore. Theheight of the concave section shall be 4.0 to 18.0 mm at thecenter. The stoppered pycnometer shall have a capacity of 24 to30 mL and shall weigh not more than 40 g. Suitable pycnom-eters are illustrated in Fig. 1.6.2 Water Bath, constant-temperature, capable of m

Sampling8.1 Take samples in accordance with Practice D 140. Thesample shall be free of foreign substances.8.2 Thoroughly mix the sample before

16、 removing a repre-sentative portion for testing.9. Preparation of Apparatus9.1 Partially fill a 600-mL Griffin low-form beaker withfreshly boiled and cooled distilled or deionized water to a levelthat will allow the top of the pycnometer to be immersed to adepth of not less than 40 mm.9.2 Partially

17、immerse the beaker in the water bath to a depthsufficient to allow the bottom of the beaker to be immersed toa depth of not less than 100 mm, while the top of the beaker isabove the water level of the bath. Clamp the beaker in place.9.3 Maintain the temperature of the water bath within 0.1Cof the te

18、st temperature.10. Calibration of Pycnometer10.1 Thoroughly clean, dry, and weigh the pycnometer tothe nearest 1 mg. Designate this mass as A.10.2 Remove the beaker from the water bath. Fill thepycnometer with freshly boiled distilled or deionized water,placing the stopper loosely in the pycnometer.

19、 Place thepycnometer in the beaker and press the stopper firmly in place.Return the beaker to the water bath.NOTE 3Calibration must be done at the test temperature. A pycnom-eter calibrated at one temperature cannot be used at a different temperaturewithout recalibration at that temperature.10.3 All

20、ow the pycnometer to remain in the water for aperiod of not less than 30 min. Remove the pycnometer,immediately dry the top of the stopper with one stroke of a drytowel (Note 4), then quickly dry the remaining outside area ofthe pycnometer and weigh to the nearest 1 mg. Designate themass of the pycn

21、ometer plus water as B.NOTE 4Do not redry the top of the stopper even even if a smalldroplet of water forms as a result of expansion. If the top is dried at theinstant of removing the pycnometer from the water, the proper mass of thecontents at the test temperature will be recorded. If moisture cond

22、enses onthe pycnometer during weighing, quickly redry the outside of thepycnometer (excluding the top) before recording the mass.11. Procedure11.1 Preparation of SampleHeat the sample with care,stirring to prevent local overheating, until the sample hasbecome sufficiently fluid to pour. In no case s

23、hould thetemperature be raised to more than 55C above the expectedsoftening point for tar, or to more than 110C above theexpected softening point for asphalt. Do not heat for more than60 min, and avoid incorporating air bubbles into the sample.11.2 Pour enough sample into the clean, dry, warmedpycno

24、meter to fill it about three fourths of its capacity. Takeprecautions to keep the material from touching the sides of thepycnometer above the final level and prevent the inclusion ofair bubbles (Note 5). Allow the pycnometer and its contents tocool to ambient temperature for a period of not less tha

25、n 40 minand weigh with the stopper to the nearest 1 mg. Designate themass of the pycnometer plus sample as C.NOTE 5If any air bubbles are inadvertently occluded, remove bybrushing the surface of the asphalt in the pycnometer with a high “soft”flame of a bunsen burner. To avoid overheating, do not al

26、low the flame toremain in contact with the asphalt more than a few seconds at any onetime.11.3 Remove the beaker from the water bath. Fill thepycnometer containing the asphalt with freshly boiled distilledor deionized water, placing the stopper loosely in the pycnom-eter. Do not allow any air bubble

27、s to remain in the pycnometer.Place the pycnometer in the beaker and press the stopper firmlyin place. Return the beaker to the water bath.11.4 Allow the pycnometer to remain in the water bath fora period of not less than 30 min. Remove the pycnometer fromthe bath. Dry and weigh using the same techn
