METHOD FOR PREDICTING BITUMEN PROPERTIES

Method for predicting one or more properties of bitumen using dielectric spectroscopy, wherein the method comprises: (a) dissolving a bitumen sample in a solvent to form a bitumen solution; (b) measuring the impedance response of the bitumen solution across a frequency range of from 1,400 Hz to 1,58...

Zusammenfassung:	Method for predicting one or more properties of bitumen using dielectric spectroscopy, wherein the method comprises: (a) dissolving a bitumen sample in a solvent to form a bitumen solution; (b) measuring the impedance response of the bitumen solution across a frequency range of from 1,400 Hz to 1,580 Hz; (c) converting the impedance response of the bitumen solution to a dielectric loss factor; and (d) comparing the dielectric loss factor of the bitumen solution to a reference database comprising dielectric loss factors of reference bitumen samples to predict one or more properties of the bitumen sample comprising the bitumen solution.
