United States13.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 apparatus-measuring geometry, nthe part of the equipment that is immersed in the asphalt sample, the dimensions ofwhich are used, in conjunction with the rotational resisting tor

17、que, to calculate the apparent viscosity. This geometry may bereferred to by the equipment manufacturer as a spindle, bob, inner concentric cylinder, vane, and so forth.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A rotational viscometer, as described in this test method, is used to measure the apparent viscosity o

18、f asphalt at elevatedtemperatures. The torque on the apparatus-measuring geometry, rotating in a thermostatically controlled sample holder containinga sample of asphalt, is used to measure the relative resistance to rotation. The torque and speed are used to determine the viscosityof the asphalt in

19、pascal seconds, millipascal seconds, or centipoise.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is used to measure the apparent viscosity of asphalts at handling, mixing, or application temperatures.5.2 Some asphalts may exhibit non-Newtonian behavior under the conditions of this test method, or at t

20、emperatures within therange of this test method. Since non-Newtonian viscosity values are not absolute properties, but reflect the behavior of the fluidwithin the particular measurement system, it should be recognized that measurements made by this test method may not alwayspredict field performance

21、 under the conditions of use.5.3 Comparisons between non-Newtonian viscosity values should be made only for measurements made with similar conditionsof temperature, shear rate, and shear history.6. Apparatus6.1 Rotational Viscometer, capable of measuring the torque required to rotate the selected ap

22、paratus-measuring geometry at aselected constant speed while submerged in asphalt at constant desired test temperature, and with the capability to convert thetorque measurement to viscosity in pascal seconds, millipascal seconds, or centipoise. This calculation may need to be donemanually for some i

Preparation of Apparatus8.1 The rotational viscometer and thermal chamber heater shall be leveled and prepared as recommended by the instrumentmanufactu

27、rer.9. Calibration and Standardization9.1 The viscometer shall be zeroed before use, or as needed, or both, according to the manufacturers instructions.9.2 The accuracy of the viscometer shall be checked at least annually using a certified reference fluid of known viscosity atvarious temperatures, u

28、sing the method described by the supplier of the reference fluid. The reference fluid shall be certified to beNewtonian in behavior over the full range of expected test temperatures and shear rates. The reference fluid shall be certified ata temperature within 50C (90F)90F of the temperature(s) to b

29、e used during the test. The viscosity measured shall be within62 % of the certified value, or the viscometer requires recalibration.9.3 The accuracy of the temperature reading and the temperature stability of the temperature controller are to be checked at leastevery six months by placing an asphalt

30、 sample or high flash point oil in the test chamber, and equilibrating to a temperature within50C (90F)90F of the temperature(s) to be used during the test. The sample temperature shall then be measured to within60.1C (60.2F)60.2F by using a NIST traceable measuring device, as described in Method Te

31、st Methods E220E644. If anytemperature differential is indicated, the set point of the temperature controller shall be offset accordingly.D4402/D4402M 12210. Procedure10.1 Follow the manufacturers instructions for the operation of the instrument.10.2 Allow the instrument electronics to warm up for a

32、t least five minutes before conducting any calibrations or analyses.10.3 Set the temperature controller to the desired test temperature, taking into account any offset determined in 9.3.10.4 Select an apparatus-measuring geometry that will develop a resisting torque between 10 and 98 % of the instru

33、mentcapacity at the selected speed. Generally, measurements will be more accurate at higher torque readings.10.5 Preferably, preheat the sample chamber and the selected apparatus-measuring geometry until temperature equilibrium hasbeen obtained for at least 15 min. If filled asphalts are being measu

34、red, this step is mandatory.10.6 Add the volume of sample specified by the manufacturer for the apparatus-measuring geometry to be used to the samplechamber. A convenient way for measuring the volume is by weighing out the amount calculated from approximate density datafor the sample and then return

35、ing the sample chamber to the temperature controlled chamber heater. Thoroughly stir filled asphaltsto obtain a representative sample before weighing.NOTE 1Exercise caution to avoid sample overheating, and to avoid the ignition of samples with low flash points.10.7 Do not overfill the sample chamber

36、, but ensure that the measuring portion of the apparatus-measuring geometry will becompletely immersed. Follow the manufacturers instructions. The sample volume is critical to meet the system calibrationstandard.10.8 Insert the selected preheated apparatus-measuring geometry into the liquid in the c

37、hamber, and couple it to the viscometer,following the manufacturers instructions for proper alignment.10.9 Bring the asphalt sample to the desired temperature within 30 min and allow it to equilibrate at the desired test temperaturefor a minimum of 10 min before beginning the measurement. In the cas

38、e of filled asphalts, start the motor rotation immediately.10.10 Start the motor rotation of the viscometer at a speed that will develop a resisting torque that is between 10 and 98 % ofthe full-scale instrument capacity. Maintain this speed and allow the sample to equilibrate for an additional 5 mi

39、n. Temperatureshould not deviate more than 61.0C (62.0F)62.0F during this conditioning period.10.11 Measure either the viscosity or the torque at 1-min intervals for a total of three minutes. The instrument may perform thismeasurement automatically.10.12 Repeat steps 10.9-10.11 for each test tempera

40、ture required. If filled asphalts are being measured, a new, freshly stirredsample will be required for each test temperature.10.13 If torque readings are above 98 % of the instrument capacity at the lowest test temperature, decrease the speed of rotationof the apparatus-measuring geometry and conti

41、nue with the test, or repeat steps 10.5-10.11 with a smaller diameter geometry andthe appropriate volume of sample.10.14 If the torque reading is below 10 % of the instrument capacity at the highest test temperature, increase the speed ofrotation of the apparatus geometry, or repeat steps 10.5-10.11

42、 with a larger diameter geometry and the appropriate volume ofsample.10.15 If the instrument does not read out directly in viscosity units, multiply the torque readings by the appropriate factor toobtain the viscosity values.11. Calculation11.1 If the instrument does not automatically average three

43、readings, then calculate the result as the arithmetic average of thethree readings taken at 1-min intervals, rounded to three significant figures. If the rotational viscometer has a digital outputdisplaying viscosity in centipoise (cP), multiply by 0.001 to obtain the viscosity in pascal seconds (Pa

44、s). For instruments that offerautomation, the results of a 3-min integration shall be acceptable.12. Report12.1 Report test temperature, apparatus-measuring geometry type and size, torque in mNm or percent of instrument capacity,and speed in sec-1 or r/min with viscosity results in pascal seconds (P

45、as), millipascal seconds (mPas), or centipoise (cP). Forexample, Viscosity at 135C = 0.455 Pas with Bohlin 25 mm bob, 8.3 mNm of torque at 10 sec-1 or Viscosity at 400F = 240 cPwith Brookfield spindle number 31, 48 % torque at 60 r/min.13. Precision and Bias13.1 Unfilled Roofing AsphaltThe following

46、 criteria shall be used for judging the acceptability of any result (95 % confidencelevel).13.1.1 Single-Operator Precision (Repeatability)Duplicate values by the same operator using the same test equipment, in theshortest practical period of time shall be considered not equivalent if the difference

47、 in the two results, expressed as a percent oftheir mean, exceeds 3.5 %.D4402/D4402M 12313.1.2 Multilaboratory Precision (Reproducibility)The values reported by each of two laboratories, representing thearithmetic average of duplicate determinations, shall be considered not equivalent if they differ

48、 by more than 14.5 %.13.2 Filled Roofing AsphaltAn interlaboratory study was conducted in 2004 comparing three filled roofing asphalts from threedifferent suppliers, tested in triplicate at 205C (400F)400F by nine different laboratories. The data was used to calculateprecision estimates for filled a

The following criteria shall be used for judging the acceptability of any result (95 %confidence level).13.2.1 The single-operator precision (repeatability) standard deviation has been determined to be 21.0 %. Therefore, two resultsobtained in the same laboratory, by the same operator using the same equipment, in the shortest practical period of time, shouldbe considered not equivalent if the difference in the two results, expressed as a percent of their mean, exceeds 59.4 %.13.2.2 The multilaborator
