Bitumen and Bituminous Binders - Determination of Efflux Time by the Efflux Viscometer - Part 1: Bituminous Emulsions
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 12846-1 standard involves a procedure for determining the efflux time of bituminous emulsions using an efflux viscometer. This method is specific to Part 1 of the standard and focuses on bituminous emulsions. The efflux time refers to the time it takes for a specified volume of bituminous emulsion to flow through a calibrated nozzle. This measurement is important in assessing the viscosity or flow properties of the emulsion, which can impact its performance and suitability for various applications.
The standard outlines the necessary equipment and testing conditions for conducting the efflux time determination. It provides guidance on preparing the sample, calibrating the viscometer, and carrying out the test procedure. The efflux viscometer is designed to accurately measure the flow time of the bituminous emulsion. The results obtained from this test can be used to evaluate the quality and consistency of the product, ensuring it meets the required specifications and standards.
