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.
