  2. CR-39 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CR-39

    CR-39 plastic has an index of refraction of 1.498 and an Abbe number of 58. CR-39 is now a trade-marked product of PPG Industries. [2] An alternative use includes a purified version that is used to measure ionising radiation such as alpha particles and neutrons. Although CR-39 is a type of polycarbonate, it should not be confused with the ...

    According to the U.S. Geological Survey, bitumen is further distinguished as extra-heavy oil with a higher viscosity (i.e., resistance to flow): "Natural bitumen, also called tar sands or oil sands, shares the attributes of heavy oil but is yet more dense and viscous. Natural bitumen is oil having a viscosity greater than 10,000 cP."
