General Description SBS Modified Asphalt Crack and joint sealer is a high performance, single component, solvent-free SBS modified asphalt-cement compound used for reliable pavement and road repair applications in civil engineering works. SBS Modified Asphalt is appli­cable over both asphalt and concrete to serve the purpose of long-lasting restoration of ageing substrates. Due to its […]

Abstract of Gilsonite Uses The gilsonite uses in the production of high-performance asphalt and ink formulations have significantly grown in recent years. Gilsonite or Natural Bitumen is a pure hydrocarbon, with a melting point of 165°C.The mineral is a natural bitumen and geologically a petroleum based solid and therefore extremely compatible with petroleum bitumen. When […]

Description of Gilsonite Characterization It is necessary to know the relationship between weight and mass of the product, because it is expressed as a percentage when it comes to the amount of bitumen in asphalt. In fact, the specific gravity of Gilsonite is the ratio of the weight of a given volume of Gilsonite to […]

Description of Gilsonite for Asphalt Modifier Gilsonite for Asphalt Modifier is using as a performance-enhancing agent for asphalt mixes Bitumen modified paving mixes achieve higher PG grades and incorporate perfectly into the asphalt blend with no need for high shear milling as is the case with many other modifiers. Gilsonite an asphalt modifier have higher […]

  General Definition of Gilsonite Properties All Gilsonite does not have the same melting point, varying widely from about 230° F to 500° F, depending upon the particular vein from which the sample has been taken. Gilsonite greatly resembles asphalt. of which it is considered a species by many authors. Asphalt readily becomes softened by […]

General Description  help user to make it in granular powder form. Its particle size varies between 4- and 200-mesh. Pulverized Gilsonite is commonly used to control lost circulation. Gilsonite is very fragile. It shatters easily. Rolling the natural asphalt between two drums tends to give the best particle distribution to use as raw material in […]

General Description of Natural Bitumen Natural bitumen is a natural resinous hydrocarbon. Natural Bitumen is the same as the Gilsonite mineral, in fact, there are many different names for Natural Bitumen used all over the world. Natural Bitumen is a must have addition for Ink, Foundry, Asphalt, Paint & Stains, Construction and Oil and Gas […]

General Description Natural asphalt Powder in Drilling Mud and other asphaltic type materials penetrate shale pore spaces as a drill bit penetrates a formation. It is assumed that a plastic-flow mechanism will allow the asphaltite to extend into the pores of the shale, thus, reducing fluid loss or mud invasion with a tendency to bond […]

What is Bitumen? In short, bitumen is obtained from crude oil. that is a substance that can be found in solid, semi-solid or liquid forms with a color ranging from dark brown to black with hydrocarbon composition obtained by natural precipitation of crude oil or by distillation in refineries. Petroleum Asphalt is typically referred to […]

Description As countries that import bitumen have enacted cumbersome rules for exporters, it is also forbidden for bitumen to enter the country in the form of barrels; bitumen jumbo is the best option for exporting oil to this country. Fusible bitumen bag is made of specific and unique poly-alkene compound. Comparing with steel drum and […]
