Lump Gilsonite

 

Description of lump gilsonite

Zumrut International Kimiya Supplies Lump Gilsonite with ashes from 0% to 25%. Gilsonite Lump found in vertical veins. They are between 2-6 feet in width. They`re parallel to every difference and square measure adjusted during northwest to southeast direction. They extend several miles long 1500 feet depth. The vein can show up on the surface as a skinny stone and bit by bit widen because it goes deeper. First difference is that fashionable miners use gas breaking hammer and mechanical hoists. Gilsonite could be a natural, adhesive hydrocarbon. This natural asphalt is comparable to arduous petroleum asphalt and is usually referred to as a natural asphalt, asphaltite, uintaite, or asphaltum. gilsonite is soluble in aromatic and aliphatic solvents, also as petroleum asphalt. Because of its distinctive compatibility, gilsonite is usually wanting to harden softer petroleum product. gilsonite in mass could be a shiny, black substance similar in look to the mineral volcanic glass. It’s brittle and simply crushed to dark brown powder.

Gilsonite lump with ash percentage between 0 and 25

Gilsonite is a natural asphalt or bitumen with a high carbon content. It’s commonly used in various industries including asphalt paving, roofing, and inks. When selecting Gilsonite, it’s important to consider its ash content, which can affect its quality and performance in different applications. A Gilsonite lump with an ash percentage between 0 and 25 is generally considered acceptable for many applications, though lower ash content is usually preferred for higher quality products. It’s important to confirm the specific requirements for your intended use to ensure the Gilsonite meets your needs.

Lump Gilsonite refers to Gilsonite in its raw, unprocessed form, often mined as large solid chunks or lumps. Gilsonite, also known as natural bitumen or uintaite, is a naturally occurring asphalt-like substance that is highly valued for its unique chemical properties. Lump Gilsonite is typically broken down, processed, or ground into finer forms for use in various industries.

Applications of Lump Gilsonite:

  1. Asphalt and Road Construction: Improves the performance of asphalt mixes by enhancing strength, flexibility, and longevity.
  2. Coatings: Acts as a protective layer in industrial coatings, providing resistance to corrosion, UV, and chemical exposure.
  3. Inks and Paints: Enhances viscosity and color depth while improving adhesion.
  4. Oil and Gas: Used in drilling muds to control fluid loss and as a binder in fracturing fluids.

Zumrut International Kimiyaowns several plants located in Kermanshah, Gilangharb,Sumar and Ilam with the full automatic progressive machinery for processing and packaging Gilsonite in 3 separate production lines. We are equipped to separate the sands from Gilsonite pile which are conveyed from the mine to the plant and make grading according to customer’s satisfaction.

Key Characteristics of Lump Gilsonite:

  • High Carbon Content: Gilsonite is rich in carbon, making it an excellent additive in products requiring enhanced durability, such as in coatings and asphalt.
    Thermal Stability: Its ability to withstand high temperatures without breaking down makes it valuable in industries like foundry and drilling fluids.
  • Natural Resin: Its binding properties are ideal for use in applications like paints, inks, adhesives, and sealants.
  • Hydrophobicity: Gilsonite repels water, which is useful in waterproofing and insulation applications.
