Bitumen and bituminous binders - Determination of dynamic viscosity by vacuum capillary

This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of the dynamic viscosity of bituminous binders by means of vacuum capillary viscometer at 60°C in the range from 0,0036 Pa.s to over 580 000 Pa.s. Note: The viscosity behaviour of some polymer modified bitumens (PMB) is not demonstrated in a vacuum capillary viscometer. Other methods are more relevant.
