Description of Granulated Gilsonite

Granulated Gilsonite refers to Gilsonite that has been processed into small, granular particles for easier handling and application in various industries. This form of Gilsonite retains all of the valuable properties of the raw material but is refined to a manageable size that enhances its usability in different processes.

Key Properties of Granular Gilsonite

• High Carbon Content: Like all forms of Gilsonite, the granular version is rich in carbon, which makes it highly effective in enhancing the performance of products like coatings, asphalt, and inks.
• Binder and Additive: Gilsonite serves as an excellent binder due to its resin-like nature, making it valuable in adhesive formulations and as an additive in various industrial products.
• Thermal Stability: Granular Gilsonite is stable at high temperatures, which makes it suitable for applications such as asphalt paving, drilling fluids, and foundry work.
• Water-Resistant: Its hydrophobic nature provides moisture resistance in coatings and sealants, and it is also used in waterproofing materials.

Industrial Applications of Granular Gilsonite:

1. Asphalt and Road Construction: Granulated Gilsonite is mixed into asphalt to improve pavement performance, increasing durability, flexibility, and resistance to deformation. It is commonly used in road surfaces that require extra toughness.
2. Coatings: In industrial coatings, Gilsonite improves resistance to weathering, UV degradation, and corrosion. It is often added to protective coatings for metals, pipelines, and other surfaces.
3. Inks and Paints: The fine granules improve ink pigmentation and provide a richer, deeper color. It also enhances the viscosity and stability of printing inks, making it a popular additive.
4. Oil and Gas Drilling: Granulated Gilsonite is used in drilling fluids to control fluid loss in drilling operations and as a binder in fracturing fluids to improve viscosity and performance.
5. Foundry and Casting: In the foundry industry, granular Gilsonite is added to sand molds to improve casting quality and reduce defects. Its thermal stability helps molds maintain shape during the high-heat process.

Advantages of Using Granular Gilsonite

• Ease of Handling: The granular form makes Gilsonite easier to transport, store, and incorporate into various formulations.
• Uniform Dispersion: Granular particles mix more evenly with other materials, resulting in consistent product quality.
• Cost-Efficiency: Granulated Gilsonite provides a cost-effective solution due to its high concentration of active ingredients and ability to improve product performance.

In summary, Granulated Gilsonite offers all the performance benefits of the raw material while providing additional handling and processing advantages, making it highly versatile and valuable across multiple industries.

Producer & Supplier

ZUMRUT Supplies Granulated Gilsonite with a diameter of 30 to 40 meshes and ashes from 0% to 25%.
Gilsonite mines are respectively the largest reserves in the United States, Canada, Iran, Iraq, Russia, Venezuela, China, Australia, Mexico, Albania and Philippines (USGS, 2007; USGS, 2016a). The largest Gilsonite reserves in the world are located in Utah and Colorado states that have been estimated to contain the reserve of 45 million tons, according to the US Geological Survey (Pruitt, 1961; USGS, 2016a,b). Overall, about 65 percent of Gilsonite reserves are located in North American continent consist of the United States and Canada, and Iran accounts for about 15 percent of these reserves as the third largest natural bitumen reserve globally (USGS, 2007; USGS, 2016a).
