4 Principle
The efflux time of a petroleum cut-back or fluxed bituminous binder is determined using an efflux
viscometer known as the Standard Tar Viscometer (STV) which determines the time of efflux of a 50 ml
sample through a 10 mm or a 4 mm orifice at a specified temperature.
Whatever temperatures or orifice diameters used, the efflux time shall not exceed 600 s. For highly
viscous cut-back or fluxed bituminous binders, EN 13302 shall be used.
