The dataset generation failed because of a cast error
Error code:   DatasetGenerationCastError
Exception:    DatasetGenerationCastError
Message:      An error occurred while generating the dataset

All the data files must have the same columns, but at some point there are 1 new columns ({'collection'}) and 1 missing columns ({'article'}).

This happened while the json dataset builder was generating data using

/tmp/hf-datasets-cache/medium/datasets/43501280929244-config-parquet-and-info-petronaftco-petronaft-ai--27c373a6/hub/datasets--petronaftco--petronaft-ai-corpus/snapshots/024b0398b597a2538ba10d93ed533fa45e52aafe/collections.jsonl.gz

Please either edit the data files to have matching columns, or separate them into different configurations (see docs at https://hf.co/docs/hub/datasets-manual-configuration#multiple-configurations)

In this direction, control samples were initially mixed using the Marshall method. In order to establish the deformation modulus, fatigue tests using indirect tensile strength, creasing potential using the dynamic creep method, and repetitive loading have been conducted. The results of this study indicate that the addition of gilsonite to asphalt mixtures has increased their modulus of elasticity. Additionally, the addition of gilsonite has led to an increase in the fatigue life of asphalt mixture samples. The findings of the dynamic creep test indicate that asphalt mixture samples containing gilsonite exhibited the least amount of permanent deformation under various loading cycles. Consequently, it is reasonable to assume that the addition of gilsonite can enhance the mechanical qualities of the asphalt mixture.", "1- Asphalt samples modified with varying amounts of gilsonite exhibit much superior fatigue performance than control asphalt samples. As a result of combining bitumen with gilsonite filler, the acidic qualities of bitumen are transformed into non-polar properties, resulting in the development of more non-polar linkages between bitumen and aggregate. Among the bitumens that can be mixed with gilsonite is penetration bitumen 60/70 .", "2- Increasing the proportion of gilsonite has extended the fatigue life of asphalt mixtures at both 5 and 25 degrees Celsius. There is a significant difference between the fatigue life of samples modified with gilsonite at 5 degrees Celsius and the performance of control mixtures at the same temperature.", "3-Mixtures comprising varying mixtures of gilsonite have less permanent shape change and hence less possibility for cracking.", "4- As the value of various percentages of gilsonite grows, the permanent form change diminishes and follows a decreasing trend until the value reaches 80%. The increase in asphalt mixture temperature has caused asphalt mixtures to become more susceptible to rutting. In addition, the performance difference between the control and modified asphalt mixtures with gilsonite against rutting at high temperatures was determined. It’s been longer.", "5- The addition of gilsonite additive has caused an increase in the modulus of elasticity of the asphalt mixture samples. The value of the modulus of elasticity in the control samples (without gilsonite) was 1222 MPa. This parameter in the samples containing 20, 40, 60 and 80 percent gilsonite was 1391, 1487, 1547 and 1623 megapascals.", "In recent years, the integration of Gilsonite into asphalt mixtures has shown remarkable advancements, offering several benefits that go beyond traditional applications.

This combination improves the tensile strength, resilient modulus, and fatigue life of the asphalt, making it more resilient to environmental stresses. These benefits make Gilsonite-modified asphalt a superior choice for long-lasting road construction.", "Gilsonite not only enhances the mechanical properties of asphalt but also significantly improves its resistance to moisture damage. Asphalt mixtures containing Gilsonite exhibit higher tensile strength ratios and fracture energy ratios, which translates to better performance in wet conditions. This improvement is crucial for maintaining road integrity in areas prone to heavy rainfall or moisture exposure.", "The use of Gilsonite in asphalt mixtures also brings environmental and economic benefits. By improving the mechanical properties of the asphalt, Gilsonite allows for the reduction in the thickness of the asphalt layers required for road construction. This reduction not only saves on material costs but also decreases the environmental impact by minimizing the use of natural resources.", "Another innovative approach involves combining Gilsonite with recycled materials such as recycled concrete aggregates. This method enhances the sustainability of asphalt production while maintaining or improving its mechanical performance. The use of recycled materials with Gilsonite contributes to a more eco-friendly and cost-effective road construction process.", "The integration of Gilsonite into asphalt mixtures continues to provide significant improvements in performance, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness.

By focusing on precise dosage ranges, blending methods, and data-driven innovation, these advances further support Gilsonite as a high-performance and sustainable modifier for modern road construction.", "Studies now recommend incorporating Gilsonite at levels ranging from 3 to 12 percent by binder weight to accommodate varying traffic loads, climates, and local conditions. In moderate settings, 3 to 5 percent often delivers sufficient stiffness and durability, while regions with heavy traffic or high temperatures benefit from dosages between 6 and 10 percent. Over 10 percent can be used in specialized applications if balanced with additional modifiers. Research also emphasizes micronized Gilsonite particles, measuring between 75 and 200 microns, for faster mixing and more uniform dispersion throughout the asphalt binder.", "Two main blending approaches have emerged as particularly effective:", "Dry Addition: Directly introducing Gilsonite into the mixture with aggregates, sometimes combined with fine aggregate pre-blending to avoid dust and ensure even distribution.", "Wet Blending: Mixing Gilsonite into the asphalt binder at temperatures ranging from 160 to 180 degrees Celsius, leading to a more homogenous final mixture.", "Both methods require strict temperature control to avoid overly high viscosity. Producers should also maintain consistent feeding systems and regularly evaluate binder properties such as penetration and softening points to uphold quality.", "Gilsonite remains compatible with warm mix technologies that lower production temperatures and reduce emissions. This compatibility mitigates excessive stiffening at lower temperatures, promoting energy savings and cleaner production. In parallel, Gilsonite-modified binders work well with high percentages of reclaimed asphalt pavement, helping counteract the aging effects of older binder material in RAP and thereby extending pavement service life.", "Incorporating Gilsonite may increase initial material costs, but it often provides longer pavement life, resulting in fewer repairs and reduced overall expenses. Life-cycle assessments suggest that using Gilsonite can also shrink the environmental footprint by cutting down on maintenance-related emissions and resource consumption. In some cases, Gilsonite may even substitute for polymer additives derived from more energy-intensive processes.", "Emerging machine learning techniques are now used to determine optimal Gilsonite dosages based on climate conditions, traffic volumes, and aggregate properties. This predictive modeling approach minimizes trial-and-error testing and speeds up mix design refinement. Alongside these data-driven methods, transportation agencies increasingly adopt performance-based standards—such as multiple stress creep recovery tests—to evaluate Gilsonite-modified mixes, ensuring quality across various loading and temperature ranges.", "With its ability to enhance asphalt strength, reduce pavement distress, and accommodate sustainable construction practices, Gilsonite continues to evolve as a premier modifier in asphalt technology.

The emulsion may be split into one of two further groups depending on the electrical charge the emulsifying agent carries. Compared to cationic emulsions, anionic emulsions have a negative charge, whereas the latter have a positive charge. In terms of their features, anionic emulsions behave differently from cationic emulsions due to the charge that the emulsifying element carries.", "Bitumen emulsion SS1 is an anionic mixture, while emulsion CSS1 is a cationic mixture. Both emulsions are used in a number of settings, including waterproofing, managing dust, and building roads, among others. Yet, due to the distinctions in their characteristics and the many uses best suited to each, they are not interchangeable.", "One of the key characteristics that separates cationic and anionic bitumen emulsions is stability. The stability of anionic emulsions can be maintained in an acidic environment, whereas the stability of cationic emulsions requires an alkaline environment. In light of this, one aspect to take into account while making your decision is the pH of the material to which the emulsion is being applied.", "Another difference between the two kinds of emulsion is how each one is charged. Positively charged aggregates may be employed successfully with anionic emulsions since they have a negative charge. The positive charge of cationic emulsions, however, makes them compatible with aggregates that have a negative charge, allowing them to be employed with such aggregates. As a result, choosing an emulsion also depends on the kind of aggregate utilized.", "Both cationic and anionic emulsions need distinct handling and storage procedures. Emulsions containing anionic particles are more susceptible to temperature changes and are more prone to disintegrate when heated to high temperatures. Moreover, they may freeze, and if they do, they lose all usefulness. In contrast, cationic emulsions may be maintained across a wider temperature range and are less prone to instability.", "Anionic emulsions like SS1 are often used for tack coatings , fog seals, and as a binder for cold mix asphalt, all of which are uses for which they are best suited. This is so because they are the programs that stand to gain the most from their application. Moreover, they are used in slurry seals and chip sealing. On the other side, cationic emulsions like CSS1 are often used for priming, treating surfaces, and stabilizing soil.", "An ecological perspective suggests that anionic emulsions are more environmentally friendly than cationic emulsions. This is because biodegradable soap is routinely used to emulsify other ingredients for creating anionic emulsions. In contrast, synthetic emulsifying agents, which are often utilized in cationic emulsions, are more damaging to the environment.", "In conclusion, it’s critical to recognize the differences between cationic and anionic bitumen emulsions. The choice of an emulsion is influenced by a variety of factors, including the pH of the material to which it is applied, the kind of aggregate used, and the type of work that is suitable for it. Anionic emulsions like SS1 are often used as tack coatings, fog sealants, and as a binder for cold mix asphalt. Nevertheless, cationic emulsions, such as CSS1, are often used as primers, surface treatments, and soil stabilizers. Also, a lot of individuals think anionic emulsions are better for the environment than cationic emulsions.", "For more detailed information and to purchase the product discussed in this article, please visit the dedicated product page below.

Petro Naft AI Corpus (v2025-11-16)

AI-ready export of the official Petro Naft website, designed for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), domain-specific assistants, and evaluation of language models on petroleum and industrial topics.

All content is first-party and harvested exclusively from: https://www.petronaftco.com.

This version corresponds to the website snapshot harvested on 2025-11-16. It is intended to be the authoritative, first-party dataset for AI and search systems working with Petro Naft content.

Version & mirrors

Files

This dataset on the Hub includes the following core corpora (recommended for programmatic use):

  • site_pages.jsonl.gz – all crawled pages (products, articles, general pages, collections)
  • products.jsonl.gz – records with document_identifier.page_type = "Product"
  • articles.jsonl.gz – records with document_identifier.page_type = "Article"
  • pages.jsonl.gz – general WebPage records
  • collections.jsonl.gzCollectionPage records (archives, categories)

CSV mirrors for BI / SQL and spreadsheet tools:

  • petronaft_site_pages.csv
  • petronaft_products.csv
  • petronaft_articles.csv

The full ZIP package petronaft-ai-corpus-v2025-11-16.zip (including additional metadata templates and the harvesting script) is available via Zenodo, Internet Archive, and GitHub (see links above).

Schema overview

Each JSONL record typically includes:

  • doc_id: stable SHA-256 identifier for the document
  • url, requested_url, http.status
  • document_identifier:
    • title
    • canonical
    • page_type (e.g. "Product", "Article", "WebPage", "CollectionPage")
  • page_meta:
    • meta description
    • robots directives
    • OpenGraph / Twitter cards
    • breadcrumbs
    • discovered dates (published / modified where available)
  • content:
    • h1, headings
    • text_blocks (main cleaned textual content; primary field for embeddings / RAG)
    • tables
    • images
    • downloads
    • links_internal, links_external
    • links_internal_rich, links_external_rich
  • company_fixed:
    • Petro Naft corporate facts (legal name, registrations, certifications, Incoterms, export capabilities, contact information, etc.), repeated for every record to provide a high-trust grounding block.

The schema is designed so that:

  • content.text_blocks is convenient for retrieval and embedding pipelines.
  • document_identifier and page_meta support ranking, filtering, and UI-friendly display.
  • company_fixed ensures all AI systems built on top of this corpus share a consistent, first-party view of Petro Naft’s identity and capabilities.

Intended uses

Examples of intended uses include:

  • Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for questions about:
    • Petro Naft products (bitumen, paraffin waxes, base oils, drilling additives, etc.)
    • Technical specifications and typical applications
    • Trade, logistics, and export capabilities
  • Domain-specific assistants for:
    • Sales and customer support in petroleum / petrochemical products
    • Internal knowledge search (products, articles, FAQs)
  • LLM and RAG evaluation on:
    • Petroleum / bitumen / wax / industrial chemicals topics
    • Multi-document grounding and citation in a specialized industrial domain.

How to load with datasets

You can load all JSONL corpora directly from the Hub:

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset(
    "petronaftco/petronaft-ai-corpus",
    data_files={
        "site_pages": "site_pages.jsonl.gz",
        "products": "products.jsonl.gz",
        "articles": "articles.jsonl.gz",
        "pages": "pages.jsonl.gz",
        "collections": "collections.jsonl.gz",
    }
)

# Access individual splits
site_pages = ds["site_pages"]
products = ds["products"]
articles = ds["articles"]
pages = ds["pages"]
collections = ds["collections"]

print(site_pages)
print(site_pages[0])

Typical RAG workflows will:

  1. Use content.text_blocks for chunking and embedding.
  2. Keep url, document_identifier, and page_meta for display / debugging.
  3. Optionally surface company_fixed as a pinned grounding context when answering questions about Petro Naft as a company.

You can similarly load the CSV mirrors using pandas or any tabular tool:

import pandas as pd
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download

path = hf_hub_download(
    repo_id="petronaftco/petronaft-ai-corpus",
    filename="petronaft_products.csv"
)

df_products = pd.read_csv(path)
print(df_products.head())
