Bitumen and bituminous binders - Determination of the resistance to hardening under the influence of heat and air - Part 2: TFOT Method.
This European Standard describes a method for measuring the combined effects of heat and air on a film of bitumen or bituminous binder, simulating the hardening that a bituminous binder undergoes during mixing in an asphalt mixing plant. The method is referred to as TFOT, i.e. Thin Film Oven Test. WARNING — Use of this standard can 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 to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. If there is a likelihood of volatile components being present in a binder, this procedure should not be used. It should not be used for cutback bitumen or bituminous emulsions before these products have been stabilised, e.g. in accordance with EN 14895.
