ASTM D70-17 rus PDF

Full title and description

St ASTM D70-17 rus — Russian-language edition (translation) of ASTM D70-17: "Standard Test Method for Density of Semi‑Solid Bituminous Materials (Pycnometer Method)". This product delivers the original ASTM D70-17 test method text rendered in Russian (русский перевод) for laboratory, quality control and technical reference use.

Abstract

ASTM D70-17 specifies the pycnometer procedure for determining the specific gravity (relative density) and density of semi‑solid bituminous materials such as asphalt binders and soft tar pitches. The Russian edition reproduces the method, apparatus requirements, sample preparation, test procedure, calculations and reporting conventions in Russian to support laboratories and engineers who prefer documentation in that language.

General information

• Edition / version: Designation D70 − 17 (Russian translation of the 2017 edition).
• Number of pages: 4 (original ASTM D70-17 document length).

Scope

This standard covers the determination of the relative density and density of semi‑solid bituminous materials (asphalt cements and soft tar pitches) by use of a pycnometer. It provides the procedure for sample preparation, required apparatus (pycnometer, balance, temperature control), test execution, calculations to convert measured values to density/specific gravity, and reporting requirements. The method is intended for materials that are not fluid enough for other liquid methods and notes alternative ASTM methods for very fluid or solid materials.

Key topics and requirements

• Pycnometer apparatus selection, cleaning and calibration.
• Sample heating and handling to obtain representative semi‑solid test specimens.
• Temperature control and reporting (SI units; temperatures in °C are normative).
• Mass and volume measurements, balance accuracy and tare procedures.
• Calculation of specific gravity (relative density) and conversion to density at specified reference temperature.
• Precision, repeatability considerations and references to interlaboratory practices.
• Safety and environmental notes (handling hot materials, mercury warnings where applicable to older apparatus).

Typical use and users

Primary users are asphalt and paving laboratories, materials testing agencies, road and highway engineering organizations, QC/QA personnel in binder production and bitumen suppliers, research laboratories studying binder properties, and consulting engineers specifying binder properties for mix design and performance evaluation. The Russian translation is suited for Russian‑language labs, contractors and regulators requiring a local‑language reference.

Related standards

Commonly referenced and related ASTM standards include: D3142/D3142M (for materials too fluid for D70), D3289 (alternate nickel‑crucible density method for semi‑solid/solid asphalt), D4311/D4311M (volume/temperature correction practice), plus other D04 series methods for binder testing. The D70-17 edition has since been superseded by ASTM D70/D70M-21 (the consolidated 2021 edition).
