Working Principle

Accurate determination of viscosity of bitumen and tar as per standard test methods.

The Tar Viscometer works on the principle of measuring the time taken by a fixed quantity of bitumen or tar to flow through a standard orifice at a specified temperature.

The sample is heated to the required test temperature and poured into the standard cup. The time taken for a fixed volume of the sample to flow through the orifice is recorded.

The flow time gives an indication of the viscosity of the material, which is an important parameter in evaluating the suitability of bitumen and tar for road construction.
