: Results are often available much faster than solvent-based tests.

"Correction Factor determined per Annex A1: 0.31%. Raw calculated asphalt content was 5.92%, but true asphalt content is 5.61%." astm d6307

Before testing, ensure you have the necessary specialized apparatus: : Must maintain a temperature of and be capable of accommodating a 2500g sample. : Results are often available much faster than

The standard procedure, as outlined in ASTM D6307, follows these general steps: The standard procedure, as outlined in ASTM D6307,

Look for the line. Modern furnaces weigh the sample continuously. The report should show that the scale reading didn't change more than 0.01% in the final 3 minutes. If it kept dropping, the test was stopped too early (unburned carbon left), and the result is artificially high.

The primary goal of ASTM D6307 is to calculate the percentage of asphalt cement in a mixture. The process generally follows these steps:

The test requires specific, calibrated equipment to ensure accuracy:
