LLDPE Geomembrane Specifications

LLDPE Geomembrane Specifications –  Geomembrane specifications can vary depending on the manufacturer and specific application, but here are some common specifications and benefits:

1. Thickness

• Range: 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm (20 mils to 120 mils)
• The thickness of the geomembrane is chosen based on the application requirements, with thicker membranes generally providing better puncture resistance and durability.

2. Density

• Typical Value: 0.915 – 0.935 g/cm³
• LLDPE has a lower density compared to HDPE, which contributes to its flexibility and elongation properties.

=> 0.3 mm

0,3 mm is the thinnest in its class. However, it’s still strong enough to prevent a leak. HDPE with a thickness of 0.3 mm is commonly used as a salt pile base, because in addition to leak resistance, this geomembrane is also resistant to corrosion and direct sunlight exposure.

=> 0.5 mm 

This is because the shrimp is an active moving animal that requires a thicker geomembrane to cover the base of the shrub so as not to leak easily. In addition to preventing leakage due to the friction caused by shrubs, the geomembra also prevents the occurrence of water pollution on the shrapnel by holding the soil of the base.

=> 0.75 – 2 mm

This material is known to be resistant to acidic substances in addition to being waterproof and resistant to prolonged sun exposure. That’s what makes the agricultural industry choose this as a base on the waste pool they have. Typically, industrial operators use geomembranes with a thickness of 1.5 mm in the waste pond.
