AS 2341.25:2002 PDF Download

The AS 2341.25:2002 standard outlines a specific testing procedure to determine the consistency of bitumen emulsion at a temperature of 25°C. The method described in the standard involves using an Engler viscometer, which is a device used to measure the viscosity of fluids.

The consistency of bitumen emulsion is a crucial property to assess its quality and suitability for roadmaking applications. The standard provides industry professionals with a standardized and reliable technique to evaluate the consistency of bitumen emulsion, ensuring consistency in test results across different laboratories and organizations.

By specifying the use of the Engler viscometer and setting the test temperature at 25°C, the standard ensures uniformity in testing conditions and allows for accurate comparisons of bitumen emulsion consistency data. This helps road construction professionals make informed decisions regarding the selection and use of bitumen emulsion, ultimately contributing to the overall quality and durability of road surfaces.
