This European Standard describes a procedure for determination of the compatibility between aggregate and bitumen, expressed by visual registration of the loss of adhesion in uncompacted bitumen-coated aggregate mixtures under mechanical stirring in presence of water. This method can be used to evaluate the effect of moisture with or without adhesion agents including liquids, such as amines, and fillers, such as hydrated lime or cement.
