Hisol Plus Extraction Solvent - 55 Gallon Drum

Hisol Plus is intended for use as an extraction solvent in compatible asphalt laboratory systems. It is marketed for nonheated extraction workflows, including vacuum extraction and centrifuge operations used to recover aggregate for gradation analysis. The bulk drum format can support laboratories with substantial solvent consumption while reducing the frequency of small-container replenishment. Because the listed flash point and method limitations are important to safe use, the solvent must not be substituted into reflux or other heated extraction procedures without a validated, approved method.

Key Features

• Intended for nonheated asphalt extraction and gradation workflows; confirm compatibility and approval before use in ASTM D2172/D2172M or AASHTO T 164 procedures.
• Designed for use with compatible vacuum extractors or centrifuges, allowing laboratories to select the equipment already used in their workflow.
• Supplied in a 55-gallon drum to support higher-volume laboratory operations and reduce the need for frequent small-container orders.
• Described in the HMA listing as biodegradable and non-toxic; consult the current safety data sheet for the actual hazards, handling requirements and disposal instructions.
• Provides an alternative solvent option for laboratories evaluating their extraction consumables, subject to method and equipment compatibility.

Lab Manager's Tip

Review the current SDS, ventilation, storage and waste-handling requirements before using or transferring solvent; the listed 145°F flash point makes ignition-source control important. For ASTM D2172/D2172M or AASHTO T 164, confirm that the specific solvent and extraction apparatus are accepted by the applicable agency; do not use this product in heated or reflux extraction methods.

Typical Applications

Nonheated asphalt binder extraction, vacuum extraction, centrifuge extraction, recovered-aggregate gradation and bulk asphalt laboratory solvent supply.
