1、Designation:D479717Standard Test Methods forGravimetric Analysis of White and Yellow ThermoplasticPavement Marking1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4797;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of
2、last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 These test methods cover procedures for the gravimetricanalysis of the binder and hydrochloric Acid(HCL)insolubleparticles
3、in white and yellow thermoplastic pavement mark-ings.The HCL insoluble particles can be retroreflective optics,such as glass beads or some other type of retroreflective optic,or non-retroreflective particles such as silica sand,or a com-bination of any two or more of these materials.1.2 This standar
4、d does not address the physical separationand the individual quantification of each component when amixture of two or more HCL insoluble materials is present.Rather it requires the user to visually evaluate the HCLinsoluble material(obtained from following this test method)and report the types of ma
