[Current]Methods of testing bitumen and related roadmaking products, Method 2: Determination of dynamic viscosity by vacuum capillary viscometer
Sets out procedures for the determination of dynamic viscosity of materials having viscosities in the range 0.0036 Pa.s to 580 000 Pa.s, using two different types of vacuum capillary viscometers. In particular, the method is applicable to bitumen for pavements (as specified in AS 2008), and cutback bitumen (as specified in AS 2157).
