(1)California
test method CA331 for recovery of residue. Torsional recovery
measurement shall include first 30 seconds.
(2)Exception
to AASHTO T59: Bring the temperature on the lower thermometer
slowly to 350o F plus or minus 10o F.
Maintain at this temperature for 20 minutes. Complete total
distillation in 60 plus or minus 5 minutes from first
application of heat.
(3)
Elastic Recovery @ 10o C (50o F): Hour
glass sides, pull 20 cm, hold 5 minutes then cut, let sit 1 hour. |
