2、e case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.1.Scope1.1 This te
3、st method outlines a procedure for measuring theapparent viscosity of asphalt from 38 to 260C 100 to 500Fusing a rotational viscometer and a temperature-controlledthermal chamber for maintaining the test temperature.1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separ
4、ately as standard.The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if
5、any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.See 10.6 forspecific precautionary information.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2E644
