1. What is Crushed Gilsonite?

Answer:
Crushed Gilsonite is a processed form of natural bitumen, where the Gilsonite is broken down into smaller particle sizes. This form is ideal for various industrial applications such as asphalt modification, paint and coatings, and drilling fluids due to its improved flow properties and ease of integration.


2. How is Crushed Gilsonite different from Gilsonite Lump?

Answer:
The key difference between Crushed Gilsonite and Gilsonite Lump lies in the particle size. Crushed Gilsonite is finely processed into smaller particles (ranging from 20 mesh to 200 mesh), while Gilsonite Lump is in its natural, unprocessed form. Crushed Gilsonite is preferred in applications where a finer material is required for blending, like in paint or coating production.


3. What are the main applications of Crushed Gilsonite?

Answer:
Crushed Gilsonite is primarily used in:

  • Asphalt modification to enhance heat resistance, durability, and elasticity.

  • Paints and coatings for pigment dispersion, thickening, and improving color retention.

  • Drilling fluids for viscosity control and fluid loss prevention in oil and gas exploration.


4. How does Crushed Gilsonite improve asphalt performance?

Answer:
When added to asphalt, Crushed Gilsonite improves its thermal stability and resilience to heavy traffic and extreme weather. It enhances the heat resistance of the asphalt, reducing the chances of cracking and deterioration, which ultimately prolongs the lifespan of roads and highways.


5. What is the typical particle size of Crushed Gilsonite?

Answer:
Crushed Gilsonite comes in various mesh sizes, typically ranging from 20 mesh to 200 mesh. This variety allows for customization based on the specific needs of different industries, such as paints, coatings, and asphalt production.


6. Can Crushed Gilsonite be used in paint and coating production?

Answer:
Yes, Crushed Gilsonite is highly effective in the paint and coatings industry. It acts as a pigment dispersant and thickening agent, improving the flow properties, adhesion, and durability of paints and coatings, while also enhancing color retention and UV stability.


7. Is Crushed Gilsonite environmentally friendly?

Answer:
Yes, Crushed Gilsonite is an environmentally friendly material. It is non-toxic, biodegradable, and derived from natural sources. Using Gilsonite in various applications reduces the environmental impact compared to synthetic alternatives, making it a safer choice for industries aiming for sustainability.
