Standard Test Method for Viscosity of Emulsified Asphalt by Saybolt Furol Viscometer
Also Known As:
The ASTM D7496-18 standard is designed to measure the viscosity of emulsified asphalt using a Saybolt Furol viscometer. Viscosity is an important property in the use of emulsified asphalts as it affects their utility in various applications. The material should be thin enough to be uniformly applied through a spray bar, but thick enough to prevent flow from the road's crown or grade. The viscosity of emulsified asphalts can be influenced by shear, making it crucial to follow the test procedure strictly for accurate and consistent results.
This test method applies to all emulsified asphalts specified in ASTM Specifications D977 and D2397/D2397M. The standard references notes and footnotes, which provide explanatory information, but these should not be considered as requirements of the standard itself.
