Modew Geoteks Technical Specifications and Application Guide

Technical Specifications

  • The width is 2 meters, measured according to the TS EN 1849-1 method.

  • The thickness is 1.41 mm, based on the TS EN 1849-1 method.

  • The unit weight is $150\text{ gr/m}^2$, determined by the TS EN 1849-1 standard.

  • The tensile strength (Length / Width) is $110 / 125\text{ N} / 5\text{cm}$, in accordance with the TS EN 1231-2 method.

  • The elongation at break (Length / Width) is %55 / %40, measured using the TS EN 1231-2 method.

  • The static puncture resistance is 155 N, tested according to the ASTM D6241 method.

  • The color of the product is heather.

Application Guidelines

  • Geotextile Felts are specially woven in a modern factory equipped with state-of-the-art machinery using polypropylene, polyester, and polyamide depending on the place of use, purpose, and required technical properties.

  • Our products are distinguished from others by two main features: one is that they are woven using the needle-punching method, and the other is that they have undergone thermal treatment.

  • Needle-punching is the process of mixing combed and folded fibers vertically with each other using special notched needles while they remain in a horizontal position.

  • Thanks to our wide machinery park, products with very high resistance are successfully offered for sale by performing needle-punching from both the top and the bottom.

  • Thermal treatment, on the other hand, is the fixing of fibers exhibiting thermoplastic properties at a specific temperature and pressure using a hot calender.

Category:
  • Product Description: It is a fabric-like surface formed by combining fibers much thinner than a millimeter through needle-punching and thermal treatment methods.

  • Advantageous Features:

    • Since it undergoes thermal treatment, it exhibits higher strength and less elongation at the same weight.

    • It requires less storage space.

    • It is easy to transport and roll out.

    • It is resistant to acids, alkalis, and microorganisms.

    • It is resistant to UV rays.

    • Its permeability perpendicular and parallel to the geotextile surface is high.

  • Areas of Use:

    • Highways

    • Tunnels and underground facilities

    • Sports fields

    • Metro

    • Agricultural areas

    • Garden terraces

    • Airports

    • Mining operation sites

    • Railways

    • Solid waste storage sites

    • Irrigation channels and ponds

    • Shore protection and insulation areas, etc.

    • As a carrier against cracking between insulation layers,

    • In the separation of water and heat insulation layers from each other,

    • For the protection of insulation, drainage of excess water, and preventing clogging by wrapping drainage pipes,

    • In preventing settlements and in many other application areas, Modew geotextiles are used.
