How to Prepare Bitumen, Pitch, and Asphalt Samples for Softening Point Testing

Standards such as ASTM D 3104 and ISO 5940-2 regulate the measurement of the softening point for bituminous samples in the petrochemical industry. METTLER TOLEDO's softening point systems make compliance with said standards easy. They allow for a reliable and fully automatic determination of softening point. To achieve the highest precision, the sample preparation process has to be carried out with care and in a repeatable manner.
This instructional video provides a step-by-step guide on preparing bitumen, pitch, and asphalt samples for softening point determination.
