Bitumen and bituminous binders - Visualisation of polymer dispersion in polymer modified bitumen

Scope

This document specifies a method for visualisation of the polymer distribution in polymer modified bitumens by fluorescent microscopy. The method is applicable for most of the commercially used polymers, but before the method is used it should be examined whether the test is applicable for the actual polymer. The method should only be used for identification purposes, i.e. in connection with production control.
