Abstract

This paper is concerned with geotextiles bonded chemically with geogrid to form a geocomposite. Geotextiles, thermally bonded and non-woven, play an important role as a separator. Also, this study investigates the resistance to the application environment of geotextile composites. Here, numerous tests have been performed and it was revealed from experimental results that thermally bonded geotextile in geosynthetic composites showed superior characteristics to that manufactured from needle punched non-woven method in terms of tensile strength, tensile strain and high separation performance. It was noted from experiments that the geotextile prepared for separation purpose and manufactured in a thermal bonding method showed relatively low permittivity so that it could be used as a smooth separator. In addition, PVA geotextile/HDPE geomembrane composites were designed and manufactured to investigate the waste landfill related properties. Numerous experiments have been performed and experimental results were summarized to evaluate practical applicability of PVA geotextile/HDPE geomembrane composites. Among the properties of proposed geomembrane composites, evaluation has been focused on the investigation of mechanical properties, AOS (apparent opening size), permittivity and ultraviolet stability.
