This document specifies procedures for the determination of the affinity between aggregate and
bitumen and its influence on the susceptibility of the combination to stripping. This property is
intended to be of assistance to the designer for mixture design rather than as a type test. Susceptibility
to stripping, as determined by these procedures, is an indirect measure of the power of a binder to
adhere to various aggregates, or of various binders to adhere to a given aggregate. The procedures can
also be used to evaluate the effect of moisture on a given aggregate-binder combination with or without
adhesion agents including liquids, such as amines, and fillers, such as hydrated lime or cement.
In the rolling bottle method, the affinity is expressed by visual registration of the degree of bitumen
coverage on uncompacted bitumen-coated mineral aggregate particles after influence of mechanical
stirring action in the presence of water.
