Softening Point Test

Applications
Bituminous binders do not change from the solid state to the liquid state at any definite temperature. By carefully controlling the rise in temperature applied to a sample of binder it is possible to define the temperature at which the binder will flow a given distance. The consistency and hence the category of the binder can therefore be determined.
