Characteristics, scope and storage methods of geotextiles

Geotextile is a fabric-like material made of synthetic fibers with the following characteristics:

1. Corrosion Resistance: Geotextiles are usually made from synthetic fibers such as polypropylene or polyester, which have good corrosion resistance and can resist erosion by acids, alkalis, chemicals and microorganisms, thereby extending its service life.

2. High tensile strength: Geotextiles have high tensile strength and tensile properties, can withstand high tensile force, improve the stability and strength of the soil mass.

3. Good water permeability: Geotextile has good water permeability, which can allow water to pass through and prevent the accumulation of water pressure causing soil destruction, and also promote the circulation of water in the soil.

4. Good anti-aging performance: geotextiles after anti-aging treatment, have good anti-ultraviolet and antioxidant properties, can withstand sun and rain and other external environmental erosion to maintain long-term performance stability.

Application areas of geotextiles mainly include:

1. Soil slope protection and protection: Geotextiles can be combined with soil to protect slopes, protect embankments, prevent soil erosion and slope failure.

2. Strengthening and reinforcing the road surface: Geotextiles can be used to strengthen the structure of the road surface of roads, railways, etc., and also to improve soil pressure resistance and stability.

3. Reservoir: Geotextiles can be used in reservoir projects such as river bed restoration, dam strengthening, bank protection, etc. to reduce water erosion and soil erosion.

4. Environmental Restoration: Geotextiles can be used in soil restoration, wetland construction, ecological river restoration and other environmental management projects to improve the quality of soil and water environments.

Storage method:

1. Keep Dry: Geotextiles should be kept dry during storage to avoid moisture and mildew.

2. Prevent high temperature and direct sunlight: Geotextiles should avoid long-term exposure to high temperature and direct sunlight to avoid damaging its performance.

3. Pay attention to overlap and stacking: When storing geotextiles, pay attention to avoid overlap and high stacking to avoid extrusion and deformation.

4. Regular Inspection: Regularly inspect stored geotextiles to ensure there is no moisture, wear, cracks or other problems, and take appropriate care and maintenance measures.

Proper storage of geotextiles allows you to maintain its characteristics and service life, ensuring good performance and effect when necessary.
