Density and Distillation Tests
Among the binder composition tests, Distillation Tests are critical to identify the presence of volatile constituents and the amount of non-volatile residues in bitumen. Dean Stark apparatus is used to determine the presence of water, which needs to be kept to a minimum to avoid foaming problems. Finally, the Fraas apparatus can be used to determine the low-temperature breaking point of binders.
