METHOD OF DOCUMENTATION OF ACCEPTANCE: By brand and manufacturer.
Asphalt extraction solvents and asphalt wash solvents shall be non-halogenated and non-toxic and shall contain no petroleum distillates. All components, including emulsifiers and detergents, shall be completely biodegradable. The solvent shall have a water emulsifiable base approved by the Materials Engineer. When tested with a Pensky - Martens closed cup flash point apparatus the product must flash at 60° C (140° F) or above.
The following procedure must be followed in acquiring approval of materials to be added to the Qualified Products List.
1. Asphalt extraction solvents and asphalt wash solvents shall be terpene solvents or non-terpene solvents as approved by the Materials Engineer.
All asphalt extraction solvents shall meet the following requirements of a terpene as stated in AASHTO T 164: “Extractant shall be non-halogenated, non-toxic and shall readily dissolve asphalt cement from paving mixtures and place it into solution. This extractant shall be easily rinsed from the remaining aggregate without forming a gel and the extractant rinsed from the aggregate shall pass readily through the diatomaceous earth and the filter.”
All asphalt wash solvents shall meet the following requirements of a terpene as stated in AASHTO T 164: Extractant shall be non-halogenated, non-toxic and shall readily dissolve asphalt cement from paving mixtures and place it into solution. This dissolved asphalt cement and the wash solvent shall be easily rinsed from the remaining aggregate without forming a gel.
Asphalt extraction solvents and asphalt wash solvents shall contain no petroleum distillates. All components, including emulsifiers and detergents, shall be completely biodegradable. The solvent shall have a water emulsifiable base approved by the Materials Engineer. The product shall have a mild odor, be non-toxic and have excellent dissolving properties for asphalt cements. The formulation shall allow for complete and efficient rinsing of asphalt cement from paving material aggregate. When tested with a Pensky - Martens closed cup flash point apparatus the product must flash at 60° C (140° F) or above.
2. In addition to the requirements in Item 1., the product, when used as an extraction solvent in accordance with AASHTO T 164 Method E (vacuum extraction), must produce results that agree within +/- 0.2% of a control asphalt cement content sample. The test sample may contain any combination of various aggregates used in the state of Arkansas (a water rinse requirement is an acceptable addition to the test method).
In addition to the requirements in Item 1., the product, when used as a wash solvent in accordance with AHTD TM 460, must produce results that agree with a control aggregate gradation sample. (Gradation Limits: 4.75 mm and larger: +/- 7%; 2.36 mm- 300 mcrn: +/- 5%; & 180 mcrn - 75 mcrn: +/- 3%) The test sample may contain any combination of various aggregates used in the state of Arkansas.

Information concerning the use of the solvent in extracting and/or washing asphalt cement from asphalt concrete hot mix should accompany the sample. The manufacturer/supplier will supply a statement that the material complies with the requirements of this QPL as either an extraction solvent or a wash solvent or as both.
4. The effectiveness of the solvent as an extraction solvent will be evaluated by performing an extraction according to AASHTO T 164. The effectiveness of the solvent as a wash solvent will be evaluated by performing a gradation obtained according to AHTD Test Method 460. The effectiveness of the solvent will be determined in the Division's laboratory and in field inspection laboratories.
5. If the product meets material requirements, the product will be approved for inclusion after receipt of a signed QPL certification.
6. Destination samples will be taken as deemed necessary to assure compliance
with specifications. Material failures either in the laboratory or in field applications maybe considered sufficient cause to reject the material. The Materials Engineer will determine if the failures warrant discontinuing acceptance and removal from this

Requirements for acquiring approval to be added to QPL: Qualification is based upon the submittal of physical and chemical properties and a sample by the manufacturer to the Materials Division. Inclusion in the Qualified Products List will be dependent upon the review of material properties and the outcome of testing of the sample.
RECOMMENDED USAGE RATE:
Mix 500 mL (1 pint) silicone fluid in 15 L (4 gal) of diesel fuel. Add 250 mL
(½ pint ) of this mixture to each 3800 L (1000 gal) of asphalt cement.
