Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In the paper, group composition of the natural bitumen of the Beke oil sand were studied. During the experiment, the they separated by chromatographic method in a Soxhlet apparatus and determined the percentage of oil, resin and asphaltene fractions of natural bitumen. Natural bitumen was analyzed at a Fourier transform IR-spectroscopy Spectrum-65 with 450-4000 cm−1 range. Comparing the results of elemental analysis of resin and asphaltene, it was observed that asphaltene contains more elements except carbon and hydrogen than resin. Morphological structure of asphaltene samples were studied by the scanning electron microscope (SEM) at 20 KV voltage and 0.003 Pa pressure.
