Natural bitumen from the Dead Sea Refined bitumen The University of Queensland pitch drop experiment, demonstrating the viscosity of bitumen. Bitumen (UK: / ˈ b ɪ tʃ ʊ m ɪ n / BIH-chuum-in, US: / b ɪ ˈ tj uː m ɪ n, b aɪ-/ bih-TEW-min, by-) [1] is an immensely viscous constituent of petroleum. Depending on its exact composition it can ...
Bituminous geomembrane (BGM) is a type of geomembrane consisting of a reinforcing geotextile to provide mechanical strength and elastomeric bitumen (often called asphalt in U.S.) to provide impermeability. Other components such as sand, a glass fleece, and/or a polyester film can be incorporated into the layers of a BGM. [1]
When converting oil density to specific gravity using the above definition, it is important to use the correct density of water, according to the standard conditions used when the measurement was made. The official density of water at 60 °F according to the 2008 edition of ASTM D1250 is 999.016 kg/m 3. [2] The 1980 value is 999.012 kg/m 3. [3]
Per the Alberta Oil Sands Bitumen Valuation Methodology, "Dilbit Blends" means "Blends made from heavy crudes and/or bitumens and a diluent, usually natural-gas condensate, for the purpose of meeting pipeline viscosity and density specifications, where the density of the diluent included in the blend is less than 800 kg/m 3."
Its bank density (the density of a coal seam prior to breaking up during mining) is about 1346 kg/m 3 (84 lb/ft 3) while the bulk density of extracted coal is up to 833 kg/m 3 (52 lb/ft 3). [12] Bituminous coal characteristically burns with a smoky flame and softens and swells during combustion. [13]

Asphaltite (also known as uintahite, asphaltum, gilsonite or oil sands [1]) is a naturally occurring soluble solid hydrocarbon, a form of asphalt [2] (or bitumen) with a relatively high melting temperature. Its large-scale production occurs in the Uintah Basin of Utah and Colorado, United States.
ASTM D226 / D226M Standard — 09: Specification for Asphalt-Saturated Organic Felt Used in Roofing and Waterproofing. [7] Type I - #15 or 15 lb. perforated or non-perforated; Type II - #30 or 30 lb. perforated or non-perforated; ASTM D4869 / D4869M Standard — Specification for Asphalt-Saturated Organic Felt Underlayment Used in Steep Slope ...
