This European Standard describes a test method for the recovery of soluble bitumen from bituminous pavement materials in a form suitable for further testing. The procedure is only suitable for the recovery of paving grade bitumens, for which materials this European Standard is the reference method. The fractionating column procedure (see EN 12697-4) is the reference method for mixtures containing volatile matter such as cut-back bitumen.
