Resin Compatibility Data

The compatibility data of gilsonite given below has been derived from solubility parametersª. Resins are considered compatible when they have similar solubility parameters and are measured in the same solvents. Three hydrogen bonding classes were used to classify the solvents.

Solubility Parameters for Gilsonite

Solubility Parameters for Gilsonite

Weak Hydrogen-bonding Solvents (hydrocarbons, halocarbons, nitro cpds) Medium Hydrogen-bonding Solvents (esters, ethers, ketones, glycol ethers) Strong Hydrogen-bonding Solvents (alcohols, glycols, amines, carboxylic acids)

8.0 to 9.4 (cal/cm³)^1/2

7.8 to 8.2 (cal/cm³)^1/2

None
