Gilsonite HT Grade is soluble in aromatic solvents (Benzene, Toluene, Xylene) and in most chlorinated solvents.
Packaging Gilsonite:
Gilsonite HT Grade is available in 50 lb. and 25 kilo net multi-ply paper bags, which may be palletized and stretch wrapped. It is also available in a variety of bulk bag sizes.
Health & Safety:
Gilsonite, "Natural asphalt, Natural Bitumen" is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon. There is no known history of dermatitis, lung disease or other health problems associated with handling of Gilsonite resin as supplied. Dusts are subject to combustion. Normal precautions used with flammable materials apply.
