5.1 The viscosity of emulsified asphalts characterizes their flow properties and affects their utility at 50°C or at other temperatures. The sprayability and workability of an emulsified asphalt are directly related to its viscosity for many applications. The material must be thin enough to be sprayed yet thick enough such that it will not flow from the crown or grade of the road. For mixing grade emulsified asphalts the viscosity will affect its workability and resulting film thickness on the aggregate. This test method is useful to measure the apparent viscosity of emulsified asphalt at a temperature of 50°C, 25°C, or another agreed-upon temperature. The preset temperature and rotational speed at 100 RPM allow for an automated and consistent determination of an emulsified asphalt viscosity within a short time.
