Bitumen and bituminous binders - Determination of dynamic viscosity by vacuum capillary; German version EN 12596:2014
Bitumen und bitumenhaltige Bindemittel - Bestimmung der dynamischen Viskosität mit Vakuum-Kapillaren; Deutsche Fassung EN 12596:2014
Overview
This document specifies a method for the determination of the dynamic viscosity of bituminous binders by means of a vacuum capillary viscometer at 60 °C in a range between 0,003 6 Pa·s and 580 000 Pa·s. Other temperatures are possible if calibration constants are known. Bituminous emulsions are not within the scope of this method. This document has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 336 "Bituminous binders", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR (France). The responsible German committee is Joint Committee NA 062-03-32 GA "Bitumen; Prüfverfahren und Anforderungen für die Bindemittel" ("Bitumen; test methods and specifications of binders") of the Materials Testing Standards Committee (NMP) and of the Building and Civil Engineering Standards Committee (NABau).
