Testing and analysis items and control parameters for asphalt plants
For testing parameters, we mainly have three: softening point, penetration, and ductility. The control parameters depend on the grade of asphalt you want to produce; once the grade is determined, testing can be carried out in accordance with national standards
Softening point, toluene and quinoline insolubles
These analyses are all carried out using instruments, right? Still
Generally, online monitoring of the softening point is relatively simple; it is sufficient to conduct 1-2 tests for ductility and penetration per shift, and to analyze the data in detail before the raw materials enter the facility, as well as for the asphalt after distillation.
