Hydrometer method (ISO 3675) EN ISO 13736, Determination of flash point — Abel closed-cup method (ISO 13736) 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 12597 and the following apply. 3.1 mineral flux flux which may be of carbochemical, petrochemical or petroleum origin or a mixture of those 3.2 vegetal flux type of bio-flux derived exclusively from plant based (vegetal) product 4 Abbreviated terms Abbreviated terms, providing an expression in letters and numbers (standard designations), are used to describe important characteristics of cut-back and fluxed bituminous binders i.e. viscosity, type of binder and setting ability and shall be in accordance with Table 1. Denomination of cut-back and fluxed bituminous binders is set as follows: 2 letters, describing the type of flux, i.e. Fm for mineral flux and Fv for vegetal flux; 1 or 2 digits, corresponding to the viscosity class from Table 3 determined either by efflux time or by dynamic viscosity; 1 or 2 letters, describing the type of base binder, i.e. B standing for unmodified binder and BP standing for polymer modified binder (see Note b in Table 1); 1 digit, corresponding to the classes of setting ability from Table 3. Setting ability for Fm type is based on distillation (EN 13358), as strength development depends upon volatilisation of light oils. For Fv type materials, strength development involves a chemical change and not loss of volatiles, so the measure is based on softening point of recovered binder according to EN 13074-1. The test method (distillation or softening point) to which the digit refers is thus identified by the two letters (Fm or Fv) which indicate the type of flux. Examples of abbreviated terms for cut-back and fluxed bituminous binders are given in Annex A. SIST EN 15322:2013

The following abbreviations are used in the specification tables of this European Standard (see Table 3, Table 4 and Table 5): NR for "No Requirement": this class has been included to accommodate countries where the characteristic, for a given intended use, is not subject to regulatory requirements, i.e. when there are no regulations for the property/characteristic in the territory of intended use. TBR for "To Be Reported": this class shall mean that the manufacturer is invited, but not required, to provide information, regarding performance characteristics, with the product. NOTE The reported values (TBR) are intended to be used for future development of specifications. DV for "Declared Value": this class shall mean that the manufacturer is required to provide a value or a range of values, or limiting value(s) as part of a regulatory declaration and subsequent regulatory marking. 5 Requirements and test methods 5.1 Properties/characteristics and related test methods 5.1.1 General All characteristics of cut-back and fluxed bituminous binders, listed in Table 2, shall be classified in accordance with appropriate classes from Table 3, Table 4 Part A or Table 4 Part B and Table 5.

Force ductility EN 13589 and EN 13703 When specifying a cut-back or a fluxed bituminous binder, the appropriate class for each technical requirement shall be selected. Care should be taken to make class selections which are compatible and realistic. The test procedures for stabilisation and ageing of binders given in Table 4 Part A, Table 4 Part B and Table 5 have not been used previously in Europe. With regard to Table 4 Part A and Table 4 Part B, in order to accumulate a sufficient set of data which will allow values in classes to be confirmed, it is highly recommended to use Class 1 if existing experience does not yet allow to specify actual performance classes (Class 2 to Class 11). For the same reasons, for Table 5, it is also highly recommended to use Class 1 in the case where Class 2 (DV) is not mandatory. Examples of selected performance classes for cut-back and fluxed bituminous binders are given in Annex B. SIST EN 15322:2013
Considering that large viscosity classes are specified in Table 3, i.e. in Class 2 to Class 10, relevant restricted ranges shall be defined by a nominal viscosity ± 35 % around a mid-point value. The restricted range shall be within the specified class limit. 5.1.2.2 Water effect on binder adhesion Adhesivity shall be checked with one or several reference aggregates according to the procedure specified in EN 15626. When declaring performance, the nature of the reference aggregate which has been used shall be indicated. 5.1.2.3 Setting ability Distillation (EN 13358) shall be used for Fm (mineral oil fluxed bitumen or cut-back) grade binders.
Softening point (EN 1427) after recovery (EN 13074-1) shall be used for Fv (vegetable oil fluxed bitumen) grade binders. 5.1.3 Stabilised and long-term aged binders from cut-back and fluxed bituminous binders 5.1.3.1 Stabilised binder (Table 4, Part A and B) Stabilised binder refers to the binder obtained according to the procedure specified by EN 13074-1 followed by EN 13074-2. 5.1.3.2 Long-term aged binder (Table 5) Long-term aged binder refers to the binder obtained according to the procedure specified by EN 13074-1 followed by EN 13074-2 and EN 14769 (65 h at 85 °C). 5.1.4 Properties of stabilised and long-term aged binders from cut-back and fluxed bituminous binders 5.1.4.1 Consistency at intermediate service temperature Consistency at intermediate service temperature shall be assessed according to the procedure specified in EN 1426 (needle penetration). The temperature for the test is dependent on the consistency of the binder. The penetration test shall be performed at 25 °C when the binder has a penetration smaller than or equal to (330 x 0,1) mm. If the penetration at 25 °C is greater than (330 x 0,1) mm, the test shall be performed at 15 °C. 5.1.4.2 Consistency at elevated service temperature The test method to be used is dependent on the consistency of the binder. If penetration at 25 °C is smaller than or equal to (330 x 0,1) mm, consistency at elevated temperature shall be assessed according to the procedure specified in EN 1427 (softening point). If penetration at 25 °C is greater than (330 x 0,1) mm, consistency at elevated service temperature shall be assessed either by dynamic viscosity at 60 °C (procedure specified in EN 12596 or EN 13302) or kinematic viscosity at 60 °C (procedure specified in EN 12595).
