EN 12846-1:2011
(Main)Bitumen and bituminous binders - Determination of efflux time by the efflux viscometer - Part 1: Bituminous emulsions
General Information
- Abstract
This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of the efflux time at 40 °C of bituminous emulsions in seconds using an efflux viscometer. Alternative test temperature is 50 °C.
NOTE The procedure described in this standard may also be followed to determine efflux time at other temperatures such as for instance 25 °C.
WARNING - The use of this European Standard may involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. This European Standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this European Standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
