General Definition natural asphalt used in oilfields as a fluid loss additive in drilling fluids. As an integral component of premium drilling fluid products, Gilsonite actively improves drilling efficiencies while reducing costs and minimizing the HSE impact associated with most drilling fluid additives. Gilsonite in the oil and gas industry, drilling muds or fluids perform […]
General description Gilsonite in Cementing is suitable for blocking or plugging an abandoned pipeline or backfilling a mine shaft, tunnel or excavations contains Portland cement or a mixture of at least two components selected from Portland cement, A cementitious slurry, formulated from the cement mix, may have a density less than or equal to 1500 […]
The MSDS of oxidized bitumen provides the essential information about its safe handling, storage, and hazards. It specifies the chemical composition, health hazard, first aid, and precautionary measures that need to be taken for industrial use. The understanding and compliance with the MSDS ensure compliance with safety standards and create a safe working and environmental […]
What is Natural Bitumen (Gilsonite)? Revealing Gilsonite: Nature’s Distinct Hydrocarbon Gilsonite, or Natural Bitumen, is a remarkable, naturally occurring hydrocarbon resin with a rich and multifaceted history and uses in industry. As opposed to man-made materials, this untainted hydrocarbon develops over a period of millions of years by a singular geological process, creating a distinctive […]
Cutback Bitumen Description Cutback Bitumen, or Liquid asphalt , is a type of asphalt dissolved in petroleum solvents such as naphtha, gasoline, kerosene, or white spirit to reduce its viscosity. The method allows the bitumen to be used at a reduced temperature and under various environmental conditions. The type and percentage of solvent used directly […]
Checking rubber asphalts Rubber Asphalt is an innovative paving material that combines recycled rubber with asphalt to enhance durability, reduce noise, and promote sustainability in road construction. One of the important methods to improve the performance of asphalt mixtures in different temperature conditions is bitumen modification. Due to the important effect of bitumen on the […]
What is Oxidized Bitumen 75/25 Oxidized Bitumen 75/25 is a semi-solid consistence bitumen product manufactured through air-blowing of pure petroleum bitumen or flux asphalt. Through air-blowing, physical strength of the material is increased to be useful for various purposes of building. It is stabilized based on petroleum bitumen 60/70 and oxidized through hot air. 75/25 […]
What is Oxidized Bitumen 85/25 Oxidized Bitumen 85/25 is widely used in waterproofing and coating applications, especially in regions with extremely hot climates, due to its high softening point of approximately 150°C. It is manufactured by blowing hot air through penetration-grade bitumen 60/70, a process that results in a harder, more brittle, and semi-solid material. […]
What is Oxidized Bitumen 85/40? Oxidized Bitumen 85/40, also known as blown bitumen, is a semi-solid petroleum bitumen grade resulting from air-blowing asphalt flux. The flux is normally derived by oxidizing asphalt 60/70 with hot air. 85/40 is grade referring to penetration value and the softening point of the material. Softening point is carried out […]
Description of Oxidized Bitumen 90/10 Oxidized Bitumen 90/10 is a high-quality bitumen product manufactured via controlled air-blowing where hot air passes through grade 60/70 petroleum bitumen. The process is carried out in the absence of chemical catalysts, giving a semi-solid product with high softening point, good heat stability, and low sensitivity to temperature changes. The […]
