Advanced Production Techniques for Textured Geomembranes
2024.01.18
Introduction: Geomembranes play a crucial role in various applications, and their textured surfaces, particularly in the production process, significantly impact their performance. This essay will discuss the production techniques for textured geomembranes, focusing on the one-time spray method as a recommended approach.
Three Existing Production Techniques:
Currently, there are three international production techniques for textured geomembranes: embossing (calendering), nitrogen gas, and two-stage extrusion with texturization.
1. Embossing (Calendering) Technique:
Advantages:
Uniform texture with low production costs.
Disadvantages:
Uncertain raw material quality (virgin and recycled).
Inconsistent main material thickness and low indicators.
Lack of longitudinal tensile strength, with elongation and yield indicators below standards.
Uneven membrane thickness, failing to meet national standards.
2. Nitrogen Gas Technique:
Utilizes co-extrusion to form textured surfaces during the blowing process.
Results in lower yield and elongation rates compared to spray techniques.
Limited to producing materials with a thickness of 1.5mm and above.
3. Two-Stage Extrusion with Texturization:
Produces textured membranes through post-extrusion spraying, not integrated into the membrane structure.
Risks surface peeling during use, leading to potential landslides.
Uncontrollable roughness height, making it challenging to meet standard requirements (≥0.25mm).
4. Recommended One-Time Spray Technique:
The one-time spray technique involves spraying an equivalent HDPE polymer material onto a smooth surface, offering several advantages:
A. Usage of new materials in production.
B. Superior indicators, with a fracture elongation rate exceeding 800, yield elongation rate around 14, fracture strength of 40, and puncture strength of 560—surpassing standard requirements.
C. Smooth edges facilitate welding, providing strong adhesion without damaging surface indicators.
D. Achievable width of up to 10 meters, with online detection, spraying, and fully automated feeding—outperforming nitrogen and embossing techniques. Meets or exceeds U.S. and EU standards, making it the most advanced production process in China.
Conclusion: The one-time spray technique for textured geomembrane production emerges as a superior method, offering unmatched quality, performance, and adherence to international standards. As technological advancements continue, this approach stands out as a cutting-edge solution in the field of geomembrane manufacturing..
