Bitumen is a petroleum tar, known as asphalt, pitch, or blacktop.
Typically, bitumen and "asphalt" are interchangeable.
'asphalt' refers to a mixture of mineral aggregate and bitumen (bitumen)is the black liquid which is extracted from the crude oil....
Straight run bitumen is a bitumen obtained by the fractional distillation of crude oil without undergoing further modifications. It is typically used as a binder in road construction and waterproofing applications. Straight run bitumen has higher viscosity and lower penetration compared to other types of bitumen.
Bitumen grade is a classification system based on the viscosity of the bitumen. A higher bitumen grade indicates a lower viscosity, meaning it is more viscous and suitable for higher temperature environments or heavy-duty applications.
Bitumen can be produced from mazut through a process called deasphalting, where the mazut is treated to remove the lighter components, leaving behind the heavier bitumen. This process involves distillation, solvent extraction, or other separation methods to isolate the bitumen from the mazut.
Typically, bitumen and "asphalt" are interchangeable.
The word mummy comes from an Arabic word mumiya witch means bitumen. Bitumen is a black tar like substance.
why bitumen is used
Mustek manufactures a variety of packed bitumen products. Their bitumen products are produced at the Europoort refinery in Rotterdam, Germany. They produce 3 types of bitumen: penetration bitumen,oxidized bitumen, and hard bitumen.
The word bitumen or asphalt are the words you are looking for "asphalt/bitumen" either term is acceptable. Can you google words or could you not think of it ? Bit odd but I thought I'd answer as I am bored .
Bitumen is use as fuel.

ASTM D6847 gives the procedure for it
cut black bitumen needs a solvent to dilute it whereas emulsion doesn't.
Cut-back bitumen uses solvent as the mixing medium where in Emulsion uses water to dilute bitumen for the purpose of tack-coating / road works
