THE VISCOSITY OF CUTBACK BITUMINOUS SUBSTANCES

THE VISCOSITIES OF TWO GROUPS OF CUTBACKS HAVE BEEN MEASURED ON THE RANGE OF TEMPERATURE FROM 20C TO 70C; THE CUTBACK OILS USED WERE THOSE OBTAINED BY DISTILLATION OF THE SAME CRUDE MATERIAL AS THAT USED TO PREPARE THE BASE. NORMAL REFINERY PRODUCTS WERE USED, ALTHOUGH THE INVESTIGATION WAS LIMITED TO THOSE WHICH COULD BE USED TO PREPARE CUTBACKS FOR USE IN ROAD CONSTRUCTION. SIMILAR MEASUREMENTS WERE MADE ON CUTBACKS PREPARED FROM (1) CRUDE TAR FROM A COKE OVEN AND (2) A SHALE OIL. A REGRESSION PROGRAM WAS USED TO DETERMINE THE EFFECTS ON THE VISCOSITY OF THE OIL CONTENT, THE OIL BOILING RANGE, THE HARDNESS OF THE BASE USED AND THE TEMPERATURE OF MEASUREMENT; AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE TEMPERATURE, THE EFFECT OF THE SPECIFIC VOLUME WAS ALSO INVESTIGATED. /AUTHOR/RRL/
