Bitumen and bituminous binders - Measurement of density and specific gravity - Capillary-stoppered pyknometer method

This European standard specifies a procedure for determining the specific gravity and density of bituminous binders at (25,0 ± 0,2) °C using the capillary-stoppered pyknometer method. Emulsions are excluded from the scope of this method.
NOTE 1   This method can also be used for other hydrocarbon binders, for bituminous binders from other sources, e.g. recovered from asphalt or after hardening and for bituminous binders containing filler. However, a lower precision is to be expected.
NOTE 2   This test method may be performed at other temperatures (i.e. 15 °C). When doing so, the density values of water and isopropanol should be determined.
The pyknometer method shall be used as a reference method for determining the specific gravity and density of bituminous binders.
WARNING — Use of this standard may involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Bitumes et liants bitumineux - Mesure de la masse volumique et de la densité - Méthode du pycnometre a bouchon capillaire

La présente Norme européenne prescrit une procédure pour déterminer la densité et la masse volumique des liants bitumineux a (25,0 ? 0,2) °C suivant la méthode du pycnometre a bouchon capillaire. Les émulsions sont exclues du domaine d’application de cette méthode.
NOTE 1   Cette méthode peut aussi etre utilisée pour d’autres liants hydrocarbonés, pour des liants bitumineux d’autres provenances, par exemple ceux obtenus a partir d’enrobés ou apres durcissement, et pour des liants contenant des fines. Cependant, une précision plus faible est obtenue avec ces constituants.
NOTE 2   La présente méthode d’essai peut etre effectuée a d’autres températures (par exemple 15 °C). Dans ce cas, il convient de rechercher les valeurs des masses volumiques de l’eau et de l’isopropanol dans ces conditions.
La méthode du pycnometre doit etre utilisée comme méthode de référence pour la détermination de la densité et de la masse volumique des liants bitumineux.
ATTENTION  L'utilisation de la présente Norme européenne peut impliquer le recours a de produits, des opérations et des équipements a caracteres dangereux. La présente Norme européenne n'est pas censée aborder tous les problemes de sécurité concernés par son usage. Il est de la responsabilité de l'utilisateur de consulter et d'établir des regles de sécurité et d'hygiene appropriées et de déterminer l'applicabilité des restrictions réglementaires avant utilisation.

For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 58, Bitumen and bituminous binders – Sampling bituminous binders EN 1427, Bitumen and bituminous binders – Determination of the softening point – Ring and Ball method EN 12594, Bitumen and bituminous binders – Preparation of test samples 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 density () mass per unit of volume of a material, measured in units of kg/m3 NOTE 1 Standard temperature for determining the density of bituminous binders is (25,0 ± 0,2) °C. Density, , is calculated from specific gravity, d, of the bituminous binder. NOTE 2 Density is used for converting volumes to mass as required by other standards, applications and in sale transactions. 3.2 specific gravity (d) ratio of density of the bituminous binder, , and density of a test liquid, T, measured under the same conditions, at 25,0 °C Tdρρ=25/25 (1)



EN 15326:2007 (E) 5 4 Principle Masses of equal volumes of bituminous sample and of test liquid are compared. Equal volumes are ensured by the pyknometer being filled so as to overflow when placed in a bath at the test temperature until thermal equilibrium is reached (approximately 30 min). The calibrated pyknometer is filled approximately three quarters of its capacity with the bituminous binder to be tested and weighed with the stopper. The pyknometer is filled with a test liquid and weighed again. From the different masses, specific gravity and density shall be calculated. 5 Reagents 5.1 Test liquids Freshly boiled and cooled distilled water or deionized water shall be used to fill the pyknometer, the low-form beaker (6.6) and the waterbath. For testing petroleum cut-back and fluxed bitumen for which specific gravity at 25 °C is assumed to be lower than 1, isopropanol (propan-2-ol) with a density of (782,7 ± 0,1 ) kg/m3 at 25 °C shall be used. 5.2 Solvents Appropriate solvents are required to clean the equipment used. 6 Apparatus 6.1 Pyknometer Glass, consisting of a conical or cylindrical vessel carefully ground to receive an accurately fitting glass stopper. The stoppered pyknometer shall have a capacity of (25 ± 2) cm3, and shall weigh not more than 40 g. The wide-mouth (Hubbard) form of pyknometer may be used as detailed in ISO 3507. In case larger samples are available, a larger Hubard pyknometer with a 50 ml capacity may be used also detailed in
