Yixing Shenzhou HDPE Geomembrane Characteristics and Performance
· Exceptional Impermeability: They have an extremely low water vapor permeability coefficient (K ≤ 1.0 × 10⁻¹³ g·cm/(cm²·s·Pa)), making them virtually impermeable to water and many other liquids .
· Outstanding Chemical Resistance: HDPE is highly resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including strong acids, alkalis, and salts, which is essential for containing industrial waste and leachate .
· High Mechanical Strength: They possess high tensile yield strength, tear resistance, and puncture resistance, allowing them to withstand significant stress and strain from the underlying subsoil and overlying materials .
· Durability and Longevity: Thanks to additives like carbon black and antioxidants, HDPE geomembranes offer excellent resistance to UV radiation, oxidation, and extreme temperatures (from -70°C to over 110°C), leading to a service life that can exceed 50 years .
· Environmental Stress Crack Resistance (ESCR): This property ensures that the material can withstand long-term tensile stresses in the presence of chemicals without cracking, which is crucial for its long-term performance .

Installation and Construction Considerations
Proper installation is critical to ensuring the performance of an HDPE geomembrane liner.
· Subgrade Preparation: The foundation must be carefully prepared—it should be smooth, compacted, and free of sharp objects like stones, roots, or debris that could puncture the membrane .
· Welding and Seaming: Panels of HDPE geomembrane are typically joined together using thermal fusion welding (either dual-track or extrusion welding) to create continuous, strong, and watertight seams. This process requires specialized equipment and trained, certified technicians .
· Quality Assurance: After welding, every seam must be tested for integrity. Common non-destructive test methods include air pressure testing for dual-track seams. Destructive tests are also performed on sample seams to verify strength .
· Protection: Once installed, the geomembrane often needs to be protected. This can involve covering it with a layer of soil or a geotextile (a non-woven fabric) to protect it from punctures, UV exposure, and mechanical damage during and after construction .
