12、h.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 Arotational viscometer, as described in this test method,is used to measure the apparent viscosity of asphalt at elevatedtemperatures. The torque on the apparatus-measuring geom-etry, rotating in a thermostatically controlled sample holdercontaining a sample of asphalt

13、, is used to measure the relativeresistance to rotation. The torque and speed are used todetermine the viscosity of the asphalt in pascal seconds,millipascal seconds, or centipoise.5.

Since non-Newtonianviscosity values are not absolute properties, but reflect thebehavior of the fluid within the particular measurement system,it should be recognized that measurements made by this testmethod may not always predict field performance under theconditions of use.5.3 Comparison

Calibration and Standardization9.1 The viscometer shall be zeroed befo

23、re use, or as needed,or both, according to the manufacturers instructions.9.2 The accuracy of the viscometer shall be checked at leastannually using a certified reference fluid of known viscosity atvarious temperatures, using the method described by thesupplier of the reference fluid. The reference

24、fluid shall becertified to be Newtonian in behavior over the full range ofexpected test temperatures and shear rates. The reference fluidshall be certified at a temperature within 50C (90F) of thetemperature(s) to be used during the test. The viscositymeasured shall be within 62 % of the certified v

25、alue, or theviscometer requires recalibration.9.3 The accuracy of the temperature reading and the tem-perature stability of the temperature controller are to bechecked at least every six months by placing an asphalt sampleor high flash point oil in the test chamber, and equilibrating toa temperature

26、 within 50C (90F) of the temperature(s) to beused during the test. The sample temperature shall then bemeasured to within 60.1C (60.2F) by using a NIST trace-able measuring device, as described in Method E 220.Ifanytemperature differential is indicated, the set point of thetemperature controller sha

Procedure10.1 Follow the manufacturers instructions for the opera-tion of the instrument.10.2 Allow the instrument electronics to warm up for atleast five minutes before conducting any calibrations or analy-ses.10.3 Set the temperature controller to the desired testtempe

28、rature, taking into account any offset determined in 9.3.10.4 Select an apparatus-measuring geometry that will de-velop a resisting torque between 10 and 98 % of the instrumentcapacity at the selected speed. Generally, measurements will bemore accurate at higher torque readings.10.5 Preferably, preh

If filled asphaltsare being measured, this step is mandatory.10.6 Add the volume of sample specified by the manufac-turer for the apparatus-measuring geometry t

A convenient way for measuring the volumeis by weighing out the amount calculated from approximatedensity data for the sample and then returning the samplechamber to the temperature controlled chamber heater. Thor-oughly stir filled asphalts to obtain a representative

31、 samplebefore weighing.NOTE 1Exercise caution to avoid sample overheating, and to avoidthe ignition of samples with low flash points.10.7 Do not overfill the sample chamber, but ensure that themeasuring portion of the apparatus-measuring geometry willbe completely immersed. Follow the manufacturers

32、instruc-tions. The sample volume is critical to meet the systemcalibration standard.10.8 Insert the selected preheated apparatus-measuring ge-ometry into the liquid in the chamber, and couple it to theviscometer, following the manufacturers instructions forproper alignment.10.9 Bring the asphalt sam

33、ple to the desired temperaturewithin 30 min and allow it to equilibrate at the desired testtemperature for a minimum of 10 min before beginning themeasurement. In the case of filled asphalts, start the motorrotation immediately.10.10 Start the motor rotation of the viscometer at a speedthat will dev

34、elop a resisting torque that is between 10 and 98 %of the full-scale instrument capacity. Maintain this speed andallow the sample to equilibrate for an additional 5 min.Temperature should not deviate more than 61.0C (62.0F)during this conditioning period.10.11 Measure either the viscosity or the tor

35、que at 1-minintervals for a total of three minutes. The instrument mayperform this measurement automatically.10.12 Repeat steps 10.9-10.11 for each test temperaturerequired. If filled asphalts are being measured, a new, freshlystirred sample will be required for each test temperature.D440206210.13 I

36、f torque readings are above 98 % of the instrumentcapacity at the lowest test temperature, decrease the speed ofrotation of the apparatus-measuring geometry and continuewith the test, or repeat steps 10.5-10.11 with a smaller diametergeometry and the appropriate volume of sample.10.14 If the torque

37、reading is below 10 % of the instrumentcapacity at the highest test temperature, increase the speed ofrotation of the apparatus geometry, or repeat steps 10.5-10.11with a larger diameter geometry and the appropriate volume ofsample.10.15 If the instrument does not read out directly in viscos-ity uni

38、ts, multiply the torque readings by the appropriate factorto obtain the viscosity values.11. Calculation11.1 If the instrument does not automatically average threereadings, then calculate the result as the arithmetic average ofthe three readings taken at 1-min intervals, rounded to threesignificant

39、figures. If the rotational viscometer has a digitaloutput displaying viscosity in centipoise (cP), multiply by0.001 to obtain the viscosity in pascal seconds (Pas). Forinstruments that offer automation, the results of a 3-minintegration shall be acceptable.12. Report12.1 Report test temperature, app
