Gilsonite  ( Natural Asphalt )

Within the realm of asphalt production, Gilsonite reigns supreme as a transformative additive, elevating pavement performance and longevity. Its inherent properties enhance asphalt durability, flexibility, and resistance to environmental stressors, culminating in the creation of resilient road surfaces tailored for highways, roads, airports, and parking lots. In foundry and casting applications, Gilsonite assumes a pivotal role as a binder and additive, imparting strength, thermal stability, and dimensional accuracy to castings . Gilsonite  serves as a versatile ingredient, imbuing formulations with pigment dispersancy, rheological modification, and film-forming properties. Its natural black hue, high melting point, and UV resistance render it ideal for outdoor applications, including road markings, protective coatings, and waterproofing membranes.Within the ink and printing industry, Gilsonite emerges as a linchpin additive, augmenting color intensity, adhesion, and print quality.
