Gilsonite Binder Grade Gilsonite Binder Grade Gilsonite vs. TLA in mastic asphalt mixtures Gilsonite Binder Grade proven to offer superior performance and economic advantages The water-resistant characteristics of mastic asphalt are due to high concentrations of bitumen and other additives that help bind aggregate particles together. Trinidad Lake Asphalt (TLA) is the most widely used […]
Gilsonite Natural Bitumen Gilsonite Natural bitumen in drilling, asphalt, ink, paint, and foundry Gilsonite is a naturally occurring, solid, black, lightweight organic material that originates from the solidification of petroleum. The dull, black appearance of weathered gilsonite resembles coal, whereas the surface of freshly broken gilsonite is shiny and resembles obsidian. Gilsonite Natural Bitumen is distinguished […]
Gilsonite Natural Asphalt GILSONITE NATURAL ASPHALT IMPROVES DRILLING EFFICIENCIES, WELLBORE STABILITY, FILTER CAKE DEVELOPMENT The primary use of Gilsonite Natural Asphalt today is as an additive in drilling fluids and cement slurries that are utilized in the drilling of oil and gas wells. It is also used in hard resin printing inks for newspapers and magazines, […]
Natural Amorphous Graphite Natural Amorphous Graphite The term “amorphous graphite” is a contradiction in terms All graphite is crystalline by definition, therefore it is impossible for graphite to be amorphous. However, the term was applied due the anhedral (no visible crystallinity) morphology of this form of graphite. To the untrained eye a piece of amorphous […]
Gilsonite Construction Grade Gilsonite Construction Grade use in Asphalt and Pavement Bitumen Modifier “Gilsonite Construction Grade” in Road industry Bitumen Modifier “Gilsonite”, along with natural asphalt, can be used as an amplifier and hardener for bitumen. It also provides a unique combination of high efficiency and economy for high-stress road paving, and for preservation purposes. […]
