#asfaltic
- Bituminous coating — The act of coating with bitumen and its result; a technological process of uniformly covering mineral aggregates with a thin film of bitumen or another hydrocarbon binder. In bitumen technology, the quality of the coating determines the road surface's durability, preventing aggregate stripping under heavy traffic and freeze-thaw cycles.
- Bitumen-coated — Having undergone the process of anrobare; a mineral aggregate, stone chipping, or rocky material that has been uniformly wrapped and covered with a thin film of bitumen, emulsion, or hydrocarbon binder. In a technical sense, it describes the state of the components of an asphalt mixture ready to be laid and compacted on the roadway to form impermeable and resistant road layers.
- Asphaltic — Containing asphalt, having the characteristics of asphalt, or referring to it; bituminous. In a structural and geological sense, it describes rocks, deposits, or industrial mixtures rich in heavy hydrocarbons, used as raw material in refineries or directly in road construction and insulating materials industries.
- Asphaltic — Resembling asphalt or rich in bitumen; characterized by a dense, sticky consistency and a brown-blackish color specific to heavy hydrocarbons. In a structural and mineralogical sense, it is used as a rarer synonym for 'asphaltic', describing organic substances or soils naturally impregnated with mineral pitch.
