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. […]
Asphalt crack sealer Asphalt crack sealer by Gilsonite Crack sealer produced by the blend of bitumen with SBS, Gilsonite, rubber process oil, crumb rubber in special temperature and pressure and using as sealing cracks and joints in the asphalt pavement and parking also cement pavement. It is used to seal expansion and longitudinal and transverse […]
Gilsonite Sealer Gilsonite Pavement Sealers Gilsonite’s proven properties make high-performance solvent-based and emulsion pavement sealers dry quicker, look better and last longer. As a natural antioxidant, it allows pavement sealers to stay blacker longer. Gilsonite’s unique molecular fractions rejuvenate the pavement being sealed. The strong bonding properties of Gilsonite help weatherproof the sealer. Making longer-lasting […]
GILSONITE BENEFITS-ASPHALT PAVEMENT GILSONITE BENEFITS-ASPHALT PAVEMENT SCIENTIFIC STUDY PROVES GILSONITE BENEFITS IN ASPHALT PAVEMENT A 2015 study by the Western Regional Superpave Center at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering of the University of Nevada, Reno, proved that Gilsonite-modified binders significantly extend the useful life of asphalt pavement. This is good news for agencies […]
Gilsonite-Asphalt Mixture Gilsonite-Asphalt mixture – Application of Gilsonite in Hot Mix Asphalt Definition Of Gilsonite GILSONITE is a pure hydrocarbon, with a melting point between 160°C and 220°C. The mineral is natural bitumen and geologically petroleum based solid and therefore extremely compatible with petroleum bitumen. When blended, a very intimate molecule of GILSONITE and bitumen […]
Gilsonite usage waterproofing membranes manufacturing Gilsonite usage waterproofing membranes manufacturing SUMMARY Gilsonite is the best material to mix with bitumen and make composite roof insulation sheets for roofing and isolation with high flexibility and cheap price. Gilsonite is used in roofing materials primarily as an agent to lower the penetration of petroleum asphalt without aging or […]
