Thin-Film oven test (TFOT) is one of the most commonly used standardized tests to simulate the STA of binders. This test is used to measure the combined effects of heat and air on a thin film of...
The thin-film oven (TFO) test simulates short-term aging by heating a film of asphalt binder in an oven for 5 hours at 163 ° C (325 ° F). The effects of heat and air are determined from changes incurred in physical properties measured before and after the oven treatment by other test procedures.
The modified rolling thin film oven test (MRTFOT) presented by Lu and Isacsson (2000) was to add a stainless steel rod which was 6mm in diameter and 127mm long to the glass bottle. This modification was proposed so as to reduce the effect of high consistency PMBs on the rolling process.
Rolling Thin Film Oven (RTFO) Test measures the effect of heat and air on a moving film of hot mix asphalt binder, simulating short-term aging that occurs during production and paving operations. This is important for investigating and predicting early age HMA pavement behavior and distress.
The Rolling Thin-Film Oven (RTFO) procedure (Figure 1) provides simulated short term aged asphalt binder for physical property testing. Asphalt binder is exposed to elevated temperatures to simulate manufacturing and placement aging.
Thin-Film Oven Test Manual and Semi-automatic Analysers: Bitumen ASTM D1754 EN 12607-2 Effect of Heat and Air on Asphaltic Materials (Thin-Film Oven Test) This test method covers the determination of the effect of heat and air on a film of semisolid asphaltic materials. The effects of this treatment are determined
The rolling thin-film oven test (RTFOT) is one of the most commonly used standardized tests to simulate the STA of binders. This test is used to measure the combined effects of heat and air on a thin film of bitumen or bituminous binder in permanent renewal.
