BS EN 13702-1:2003 Methods of test for petroleum and its products - BS 2000-513:Bitumen and bituminous binders - Determination of dynamic viscosity of modified bitumen Part 1:Cone and plate method
This European Standard specifies a method for determining the dynamic viscosity of a modified bituminous binder
over a range of temperatures by means of a cone and plate viscometer. Although the method has been developed
for modified binders, it is also suitable for other bituminous binders.
NOTE Unlike penetration grade bitumen, polymer modified bitumens (PMBs) may not show a straight line on the
Heukelom-Diagram. This implies that in order to obtain information about the temperature susceptibility of PMBs, viscosity
should be measured at different temperatures.
WARNING — The use of this European Standard may involve hazardous materials, operations and
equipment. This European Standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with
its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this European Standard to establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
