Gilsonite for steel mill application Gilsonite is used as an additive component in steel products, which Gilsonite added to the system in limestone, magnesium lime and calcium carbide, which displaces impurities such as sulfur, silica and phosphorus from molten steel and transfers them to slag. 75% of Gilsonite as volatile at 1900 ° F, when mixed with molten steel, transfers impurities to slag.
Gilsonite adding to Refinery Bitumen Gilsonite is added to refinery bitumen, to reduce the penetration and increases the viscosity and softening point.The characteristics and advantages of refinery bitumen mixed with Gilsonite are as follows: 1. Gilsonite, Reducing the grooves (wheel rejection) and other problems that cause the destruction of asphalt during traffic It is heavy and is caused by hot weather. 2. Gilsonite, Reduce the thermal sensitivity of bitumen; So it performs well at high temperatures as well as [...]
Gilsonite application in casting Gilsonite additive acts as a resin in molding and casting sand, Gilsonite creating a bond between the sand and other materials. The mold should be separated from the cast material. Meanwhile, the surfaces of the mold remain very polished. So, there are many demands on Gilsonite by micronized powder type, from casting factories.
