The Viscosities of Roofing Asphalts at Application Temperatures
The optimum range of viscosity over which hot asphalt should be applied in the fabrication of built-up roofing membranes was determined to be 50 to 150 centistokes. This viscosity range was based on the relationship between interply thickness and application temperature of asphalt obtained from roofing membrane specimens fabricated in the field. Because laboratory measurements showed a wide range of viscosities for roofing asphalts of the same type over their application temperature ranges, it was recommended that asphalts be applied at temperatures based on viscosity and not empirically determined temperature limits. In practice, the viscosity-temperature relationship should be determined for each roofing asphalt for the application temperature range prior to use. Using this relationship and the optimum viscosity range, the temperature range for applying each asphalt can be determined.
