Description

This test method quantifies the tensile force needed to remove a pullout stub adhered to a solid substrate with asphalt binder. Samples are prepared at controlled environmental (i.e., temperature and humidity) and moisture conditions. After conditioning, a pneumatic load is applied to a pullout stub using an ASTM D 4541 Type IV adhesion tester until failure. The pullout tension at failure is used to describe the adhesive properties of the asphalt binder and compatibility between aggregates and asphalt binders.
