(Main)Bitumen and bituminous binders - Determination of solubility
Bitumen and bituminous binders - Determination of solubility
This European Standard specifies a method for determining the degree of solubility of bituminous binders having little or no mineral matter other than recovered bituminous binders from asphalt mixes, in a specific solvent. Toluene is used as the solvent for reference tests.
NOTE Bituminous binders will have varying solubility in different solvents.
WARNING — Use of this European standard can involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. This European standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this European standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
Bitumen und bitumenhaltige Bindemittel - Bestimmung der Löslichkeit
Bitumes et liants bitumineux - Détermination de la solubilité
La présente Norme européenne prescrit une méthode de détermination du degré de solubilité dans un solvant spécifique, de liants bitumineux, ayant peu ou pas de matière minérale, autres que ceux récupérés à partir d'enrobés bitumineux. Le toluène est utilisé comme solvant pour les essais en cas d'arbitrage.
NOTE 1 Les liants bitumineux ont des solubilités différentes dans des solvants différents.
NOTE 2 Pour les besoins de la présente norme européenne, le terme "% (m/m)" est utilisé pour représenter la fraction massique.
AVERTISSEMENT - L'utilisation de la présente Norme européenne peut impliquer l'intervention de produits, d'opérations et d'équipements à caractère dangereux. La présente Norme européenne n'est pas censée aborder tous les problèmes de sécurité concernés par son usage. Il est de la responsabilité de l'utilisateur de consulter et d'établir des règles de sécurité et d'hygiène appropriées et de déterminer l'applicabilité des restrictions réglementaires avant utilisation.
