1、Designation:D146117Standard Test Method forMoisture or Volatile Distillates in Asphalt Mixtures1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1461;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A num
2、ber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript 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 test method covers the determination,by directmeasur
3、ement,of moisture or volatile fractions of the asphalt inasphalt mixtures.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 The text of this standard references notes and footnoteswhich provide explanatory material.Thes
4、e notes and footnotes(excluding those in tables and figures)shall not be consideredas requirements of the standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate saf
5、ety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International S

7、oad and Paving MaterialsD6997 Test Method for Distillation of Emulsified Asphalt3.Significance and Use3.1 This test method is used for determining either theamount of moisture or the amount of volatile petroleumdistillates in asphalt mixtures.3.2 Applicable standards are those in which measurementso
8、r calibrations are made,samples are procured,or products areselected.34.Apparatus4.1 Metal StillA vertical cylindrical still,similar to thatused in Test Method D6997,having a faced flange at the top towhich the head is tightly attached by means of a clamp.Thehead shall be of metal,preferably of copp
9、er or brass,and shallhave a tube opening of 25.4 mm of inside diameter to facilitateattachment of the specified trap/condenser assembly.4.2 Condenser,of the water-cooled reflux glass-tube type,having a condenser jacket not less than 400 mm long with aninner tube 9.5 to 12.7 mm in outside diameter.Th
10、e end of thecondenser inserted in the trap shall be ground off at an angle of30 from the vertical axis of the condenser.For mixtures withvery volatile solvents,it may be necessary to supplement thiswater-cooled condenser with a second water-cooled condenserof approximately the same dimensions.4.3 Tr
11、ap,of well-annealed glass,of one of the followingtypes depending upon the purpose of the test:4.3.1 For determination of water in asphalt mixtures,a glasstrap of 10-or 25-mL capacity shall be used.The trap shall begraduated in 0.1-mL divisions with 60.05-mL maximum errorbelow 1 mL,and in 0.2-mL divi
12、sions with a 60.1-mLmaximum error above 1 mL,as specified in Table 1 and Figs.1-4.Tapered ball traps require adaptors for connection to themetal still.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D04 on Roadand Paving Materials and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D04.25

15、 equipment used.Agencies that meet the criteria ofSpecification D3666 are generally considered capable of competent and objectivetesting,sampling,inspection,etc.Users of this standard are cautioned thatcompliance with Specification D3666 alone does not completely ensure reliableresults.Reliable resu
16、lts depend on many factors;following the suggestions ofSpecification D3666 or some similar acceptable guideline provides a means ofevaluating and controlling some of those factors.Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United StatesThis international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides
