European foreword
This document (EN 13358:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 336 “Bitumen and
bituminous binders”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by January 2020, and conflicting national standards shall
be withdrawn at the latest by January 2020.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 13358:2010.
The main technical changes in comparison to the previous edition are:
— Clause 5: an electric heating plate or heating mantle may be used as alternatives to the gas burner;
— Clause 5: mercury stem thermometers are replaced by temperature measuring devices allowing
similar temperature determinations to be made. Annex A (characteristics of mercury stem
thermometer) becomes informative;
— Subclause 6.4.2: requirements on distillation rate (drops per minute) may be replaced by a minimum
rate of temperature increase in cases where the distillation process has a very low yield;
— Subclause 6.4.3: volumes of distillate are to be recorded at least at the reference corrected
temperatures mentioned in EN 15322;
— Clauses 6.4.3 and 10: the possibility to record volumes of distillate to a precision of 0,1 ml is
abandoned.
This document is based on ASTM D 402-97.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland,
Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of North
Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United
Kingdom.
1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination of the distillation characteristics of cut-back and
fluxed bituminous binders made with mineral fluxes.
WARNING — The use of this document may involve hazardous materials, operations and
equipment. This document does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with
its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this document to establish appropriate safety and
health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:

3.1
distillation
process of evaporation and condensation of a liquid
3.2
mineral flux
flux which may be of carbochemical or petrochemical origin or a mixture of both
4 Principle
Petroleum cut-back and fluxed bituminous binders are distilled at a controlled rate until the temperature
of the liquid reaches 360 °C. The volumes of distillate and residue obtained over specified temperature
ranges are measured. The residue from the distillation and also the distillate can be tested as required.
5 Apparatus
Usual laboratory apparatus and glassware, together with the following:
5.1 Distillation flask, 500 ml and with side-arm, of dimensions given in Figure 1.
5.2 Heating system. Equipment needed when using a gas burner or equivalent (see Figure 3).
5.2.1 Shield, of steel, lined with 3 mm of suitable thermal insulation material and fitted with
transparent mica windows of the form and dimensions shown in Figure 2, which is used to protect the
distillation flask from air currents and to reduce radiation.
5.2.2 Shield cover (top), consisting of two parts of fire resistant millboard of 6 mm minimum
thickness.
5.2.3 Support for shield and distillation flask, two sheets 150 mm × 150 mm of a mesh of
approximately 1 mm wire gauze on a tripod or ring.

5.2.4 Heat source, adjustable Tirrill gas burner or equivalent. It is advised to protect the gas burner
flame using a chimney, as shown in Figure 3.
5.2.5 Height adjustable platform, to support the gas burner.
5.3 Heating system. Equipment needed when using an electric heater.
5.3.1 Shield and shield cover, as described under 5.2.1 and 5.2.2.
5.3.2 Electric heater (replacing items 6, 7 and 8 in Figure 3), with a heating plate adequately surfaced
to support the distillation flask and designed so as to efficiently transfer the heat. The heating plate shall
be of sufficient dimensions to support the shield over its entire base. The heater shall be equipped with a
transformer capable of controlling from 0 W to 750 W.
5.3.3 Height adjustable platform, to support the electric heater.
5.4 Heating system. Equipment needed when using an electric heating mantle.
5.4.1 Electric heating mantle (replacing items 4, 6, 7 and 8 in Figure 3), of adequate inner size to fit
the 500 ml distillation flask and completely embed the 200 ml product sample once filled into the
distillation flask (see 6.3.1). The heating mantle shall be completed with a removable insulation collar to
cover the part of the distillation flask emerging from the heating mantle. The heating mantle shall be
equipped with a transformer capable of controlling from 0 W to 750 W.
5.4.2 Height adjustable platform, to support the electric heating mantle.
5.5 Condenser, standard glass-jacketed of nominal jacket length from 200 mm to 300 mm and overall
tube length of (450 ± 10) mm (see Figure 3).
5.6 Adapter, made with glass of approximately 1 mm thickness, with reinforced top, having an angle
of approximately 105°. The inside diameter shall be (18 ± 2) mm at the wide end and not less than 5 mm
at the narrow end. The lower surface of the adapter shall be on a smooth descending curve from the wider
end to the narrower. The inside line of the outlet end shall be vertical, and the outlet shall be cut or ground
