Global Synthetics GS_028 LLDPE Single Side Textured Geomembrane Owner's Manual

LLDPE smooth/textured geomembranes have a generalised use as high friction lining materials for leachate pads, channels, dams & containment structures. LLDPE is a polymer with very short & uniform branches which make its melt temperature, tensile strength & cracking resistance superior to LDPE. ProLiner® LLDPE is a non polar, semicrystalline thermoplastic with good mechanical properties, high chemical stability & electrical insulation. ProLiner LLDPE does not absorb humidity, is odourless & is physically inert. ProLiner LLDPE geomembranes are manufactured with resins which are specially formulated & certified.

LLDPE smooth/textured geomembranes have a density from 0.928 – 0.939 g/cm3. ProLiner® LLDPE smooth/textured geomembranes have low permeability, high stress resistance & flexibility, high break elongation & good chemical & UV resistance (2-3% carbon black). ProLiner® LLDPE smooth/textured geomembranes offer improved frictional resistance of the liner on steep slopes.

All ProLiner® LLDPE geomembranes are manufactured to exceed the requirements of GRI GM17 standards.

Applications

The use of membranes in civil and environmental applications is becoming more widespread as there develops a greater understanding of the effects of contaminated ground conditions on structures and the environment.

Global Synthetics are able to offer a wide range of membranes that are compatible with the diverse range of applications and contaminants likely to be encountered.
