What are Polyester Geotextiles?
Polyester Geotextiles are permeable forms of geosynthetics, which we obtain from the extrusion of polyester material. They have the ability to separate, reinforce, filter and offer soil protection.
Benefits of Polyester Geotextile
- It has a great tear strength that enables it to be long lasting.
- Polyester geotextile is very light in weight thus enables ease of use.
- The fabric is highly cost-effective to acquire.
- It offers maximum subgrade stabilization due to its ability to integrate various functions such as, separation, reinforcement and filtration.
- Application of polyester geotextile on road construction prevents rutting.
- This fabric helps in the reduction of soil erosion.
Polyester Geotextile Specifications
- The material is highly permeable to water.
- It has high resistance to corrosion when we expose it to high acidity levels and high PH alkali value.
- This fabric is soft to touch.
- It is light in weight, making it highly preferable and convenient in construction activities.
- Polyester Geotextile has a great antibacterial performance making it safe for use in the presence of micro-organisms.
- A great tensile strength
- It is resistant to heat
Where to use Polyester Geotextile
Drainage Systems – Polyester Geotextile is highly permeable hence offers a great filtration layer for water passage and blocking of the soil particles.
Road Construction – It is useful in the separation of different soil layers and other available materials. This makes it an ideal material in road construction as it protects the materials from mixing.
Soil Improvement – This fabric offers maximum reinforcement in areas with poor grades of soils. Besides, it provides great strength to the soil when they mix, due to its load bearing capacity.
Wall Retainment – Polyester Geotextile enables proper reinforcement such as through the creation of embankments on soft texture soils.
