SB Excel™ proppants are a curable resin coated sand available in a 20/40 mesh size. Greenish-brown in color, the SB Excel proppant resin is easily recognizeable on location. One of the advantages of Stress Bond™ technology is proppant pack consolidation only occurs under the correct amount of temperature and stress.
