The RTFOT8
apparatus determines sample ageing characteristics by measuring the viscosity,
penetration and ductility properties of asphalt before and after testing.
A film of
asphalt is heated in the oven up to 163ºC in 85 minutes. The obtained residue
gives an exact idea of how asphalt will behave when mixed with a road surfacing
product. |
