Residual binder and oil distillate


Determination by distillation of the residual binder and the oil distillate in bitumen emulsions.

Water and oil distillate are separated from the residue by distillation and collected in a graduated cylinder, leaving a residual binder.

The residual binder and the oil distillate obtained by distillation can be used for later tests.

Although the specification standard EN 13808 mentions the “content of recovered binder”, it is in this case the residual binder after distillation.
