Surface dressing - Test methods - Part 3: Determination of binder aggregate adhesivity by the Vialit plate shock test method

This European Standard applies to the measurement of the binder-aggregate systems for surface dressing. This European Standard specifies methods of measurement of: the mechanical adhesion of the binder to the surface of the aggregate, - the active adhesivity of the binder the the chippings, - the improvement of the mechanical adhesion and active adhesivity by adding an adhesion agent either into the mass of the binder or by spraying the interface between binder and chippings, - the wetting temperature fo the binder to the aggregate, - the variation of adhesivity below the fragility temperature.

Oberflächenbehandlung - Prüfverfahren - Teil 3: Bestimmung des Adhäsionsvermögens von Bindemitteln und Gesteinskörnung mit dem Schlagprüfverfahren

Dieses Dokument legt Prüfverfahren für wasserfreies bitumenhaltiges Bindemittel (gefluxtes Bitumen oder Verschnittbindemittel) zur Bestimmung des Adhäsionsvermögens von Bindemittel und Gesteinskörnung sowie zur Ermittlung des Einflusses von Haftmitteln oder grenzflächenaktiven Zusätzen auf die Adhäsionseigenschaften fest, die als Hilfsmittel zur Entwicklung von Bindemittel-Gesteinskörnungs-Systemen für Oberflächenbehandlungen herangezogen werden können.
Dieses Dokument legt Verfahren fest zur Bestimmung
-   der mechanischen Adhäsion des Bindemittels an der Oberfläche von Gesteinskörnungen;
-   des aktiven Adhäsionsvermögens des Bindemittels an der Gesteinskörnung;
-   der Verbesserung der mechanischen Adhäsion und des aktiven Adhäsionsvermögens durch Zugabe von Haftmittel entweder durch Zugabe in das Bindemittel oder durch Spritzen in die Grenzfläche zwischen Bindemittel und Gesteinskörnung;
-   der Temperatur, bei der das Bindemittel die Gesteinskörnung benetzt;
-   der Änderung des Adhäsionsvermögens unterhalb der Bruchtemperatur.
Die Adhäsionseigenschaften werden durch das Benetzungsvermögen des Bindemittels beeinflusst. In Gegenwart von Wasser ist das Benetzungsvermögen von Bitumenemulsion von Natur aus hoch. Obwohl Prüfverfahren für die Bestimmung der mechanischen Adhäsion und des aktiven Adhäsionsvermögens hauptsächlich auf wasserfreie bitumenhaltige Bindemittel (gefluxtes Bitumen oder Verschnittbindemittel) ausgerichtet sind, können sie bei einer an die Zusammensetzung des Bindemittel-Gesteinskörnungs-Systems angepassten Interpretation der Ergebnisse auch für Bitumenemulsion angewendet werden. Das herkömmliche Haftverhalten von Bitumenemulsion wird hauptsächlich in Wasser eingetaucht geprüft (EN 13614).
Dieses Prüfverfahren ist geeignet für:
-   bitumenhaltige Bindemittel, die für Oberflächenbehandlungen verwendet werden (z. B. herkömmliche oder polymermodifizierte Bindemittel, im Wesentlichen wasserfreie bitumenhaltige Bindemittel, Flux- oder Verschnittbindemittel, Bitumenemulsionen);
-   alle folgenden Gesteinskörnungsgrößen, die für Oberflächenbehandlungen verwendet werden können:
-   Satz 1: 2/5 mm, 5/8 mm, 8/11 mm und 11/16 mm; und
-   Satz 2: 2/4 mm, 2/6 mm, 4/6 mm, 4/8 mm, 6/10 mm, 6/12 mm und 10/14 mm.
Diese Verfahren sind nicht für die Anwendung bei der Qualitätskontrolle auf der Baustelle vorgesehen.

Introduction
The adhesion between binder and chippings is the basis of successful surface dressing. It is important
that this bond can be obtained, initially, at the moment of construction and be ensured in cool conditions
when the adhesivity problems become dominant binder with damp or dry and dusty chippings. A
knowledge of adhesivity enables the choice of a binder and aggregate type for minimum risk, especially
for early and late season work.

1 Scope
This document specifies, for anhydrous bituminous binder (fluxed bitumen or cut-back binders), the
measurement of the binder aggregate adhesivity and the influence of adhesion agents or interfacial dopes
and adhesion characteristics as an aid to design binder aggregate systems for surface dressing.
This document specifies methods of measurement of:
— the mechanical adhesion of the binder to the surface of the aggregate;
— the active adhesivity of the binder to the chippings;
— the improvement of the mechanical adhesion and active adhesivity by adding an adhesion agent
either into the mass of the binder or by spraying the interface between binder and chippings;
— the wetting temperature of the binder to the aggregate;
— the variation of adhesivity below the fragility temperature.
The wetting capacity of the binder affects the adhesivity properties. With the presence of water, the
wetting capacity of bitumen emulsion is naturally high. Even if mechanical adhesion and active adhesivity
test methods are mainly dedicated to anhydrous bituminous binders (fluxed or cut-back binders), these
measurements can also be practiced with bitumen emulsion with a personalized interpretation of the
results that depends on the designer of the binder aggregate system. For bitumen emulsion, the
conventional adhesivity is measured mainly through the water immersion test (EN 13614).
This test method is suitable for:
— bituminous binders used for surface dressings (e.g. conventional or polymer modified binders,
mainly anhydrous bituminous binders, fluxed or cut-back binders, bitumen emulsions);
— all the following aggregates sizes that can be used for surface dressings:
— set 1: 2/5 mm, 5/8 mm, 8/11 mm and 11/16 mm; and
— set 2: 2/4 mm, 2/6 mm, 4/6 mm, 4/8 mm, 6/10 mm, 6/12 mm and 10/14 mm.
It is not intended that this method be used on site for quality control.

4 Active adhesivity, mechanical adhesion and Vialit emulsion adhesivity
4.1 Description
The required quantity of binder is heated to spraying temperature and spread evenly on a steel plate. The
test is performed at (5 ± 1) °C for anhydrous binders and at room temperature for emulsions.
Graded chippings are laid down on the binder and rolled only if anhydrous bituminous binder is used.
The prepared plate is turned over and put on 3-pointed supports.
A steel ball is made to fall 500 mm three times onto the plate within a 10 s period.
The adhesivity value is determined as the sum of the number of chippings remaining bonded to the plate
and the number of fallen chippings which are stained by the binder.
If the chippings are treated chemically or washed on site, or an interfacial adhesion agent (dope) is used
in construction, then this should be simulated in the test method. If polymer-modified binders are used
which need special site conditions, e.g. road temperatures > 10 °C or heated chippings, the test should
reflect these constraints and the report modified accordingly, e.g. increase temperature of chippings to
10 °C.
