Bitumen road emulsions are made up of three components - water, bitumen, and emulsion, and are used in construction and maintenance, particularly for surface treatments and as a binder in asphalt mixtures. Bitumen road emulsions offer a more flexible, safer, and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional hot bitumen. XAIS-PTS can offer several services to help with bitumen road emulsion testing. These tests include:

  • Residual binder and oil distillate from bitumen emulsions, by distillation, to BS EN 1431:2018 (UKAS accredited)
  • Binder recovery from bitumen emulsions by evaporation to BS EN 13074-1:2011 (UKAS accredited)
  • Binder recovery from bitumen emulsions or cutback or fluxed bituminous binders’ stabilisation after recovery by evaporation to BS EN 13074-2:2011 (UKAS accredited)
  • Brookfield Viscosity to BS EN 13302 (non-UKAS)
  • Breaking Value Mineral Filler Method to BS EN 13075-2:2016 (non-UKAS)
