BS EN 1431:2018 - TC

This standard BS EN 1431:2018 - TC Tracked Changes. Bitumen and bituminous binders. Determination of residual binder and oil distillate from bitumen emulsions by distillation is classified in these ICS categories:

• 75.140 Waxes, bituminous materials and other petroleum products
• 91.100.50 Binders. Sealing materials

This European Standard specifies a method for the quantitative determination of residual binder and oil distillate in bituminous emulsions. The method can also be used to obtain residue and oil distillate for further testing. NOTE The properties of the material recovered in the test are not necessarily the same as those of the original materials from which the emulsion was produced, especially for polymer modified bitumens, cut-back and fluxed bituminous binders. WARNING - The 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.
