Hotmix asphalt binder experiences significant aging during the manufacturing and laying process. Investigating this phenomenon within a laboratory environment, with a repeatable and simple test is very useful within the design process. The Rolling Thin Film Oven (RTFO) test is used to measure the effect of heat and air on a moving film of semi-solid asphalt binder. The results of this treatment are determined from measurements of the binder properties before and after the test. The Rolling thin film oven was first developed by James Cox. James (Jim) Cox initially worked as a design engineer developing products to test asphalt for highway construction. He worked with engineers from Shell Oil and they modified a Blue M Convection oven, that is where inner liner design that is still in use came from. James left to set up his own business, originally working from his garage in Sacramento. Later Jim set up “James Cox & Sons”. The invention of Rolling Thin Film Oven (RTFO) by Cox & Sons led to the present day AASHTO, ASTM and EN standards for Rolling Thin Film Oven test. Invention of Rolling Thin Film Oven
