1.1 本试验方法涵盖了乳化沥青中残留物的定量测定，乳化沥青主要由半固体或液体沥青基、水和乳化剂组成。 1.2 以国际单位制表示的数值应视为标准值。本标准不包括其他计量单位。 1.3 本标准的文本引用了提供解释材料的注释和脚注。这些注释和脚注（不包括表和图中的注释和脚注）不应视为本标准的要求。 1.4 本标准并非旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的用户有责任在使用前制定适当的安全、健康和环境实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 1.5 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒（TBT）委员会发布的《关于制定国际标准、指南和建议的原则的决定》中确立的国际公认标准化原则制定的。 ====意义和用途====== 3.1 该试验可用于指示乳化沥青的成分特征。蒸发残渣也可进行其他特性测试。 3.2 与蒸馏试验方法相比，蒸发残渣试验方法的渗透性和延展性较低( D6997 ). 根据蒸发获得的数据，可以接受材料，但不得因其不符合包含蒸馏残渣测定要求的规范而拒收。如果蒸发残渣不符合蒸馏残渣规定的性能要求，应使用蒸馏试验方法重新进行试验。 注1: 本标准产生的结果质量取决于执行程序的人员的能力以及所用设备的能力、校准和维护。 符合规范标准的机构 D3666 通常认为能够胜任和客观的测试、抽样、检查等。本标准的用户应注意遵守规范 D3666 单独使用并不能完全确保可靠的结果。可靠的结果取决于许多因素；遵循规范建议 D3666 或一些类似的可接受指导提供了评估和控制其中一些因素的方法。

1.1 This test method covers the quantitative determination of residue in emulsified asphalts composed principally of a semisolid or liquid asphaltic base, water, and an emulsifying agent. 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. 1.3 The text of this standard references notes and footnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of the standard. 1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. ====== Significance And Use ====== 3.1 The test may be used to indicate compositional characteristics of emulsified asphalt. Evaporation residue may also be subjected to other characterization tests. 3.2 This test method for residue by evaporation tends to give an asphaltic residue lower in penetration and ductility than the distillation test method ( D6997 ). Material may be accepted but shall not be rejected as failing to meet specifications containing requirements for determination of residue by distillation, on data obtained by evaporation. If residue from evaporation fails to meet the requirements for properties specified for residue from distillation, tests shall be rerun using the distillation test method. Note 1: The quality of results produced by this standard is dependent on the competence of the personnel performing the procedure and the capability, calibration, and maintenance of the equipment used. Agencies that meet the criteria of Specification D3666 are generally considered capable of competent and objective testing, sampling, inspection, etc. Users of this standard are cautioned that compliance with Specification D3666 alone does not completely ensure reliable results. Reliable results depend on many factors; following the suggestions of Specification D3666 or some similar acceptable guidance provides a means of evaluating and controlling some of those factors.
