Features of V Grip geomembrane

Griped geomembrane V Grip is another type of geosynthetics that are commonly used to protect concrete surfaces.

The main purpose of using clamped geomembrane sheets is to increase the lifespan of concrete surfaces by protecting them against aggressive or corrosive environments. These sheets, like geomembrane sheets, are connected to each other by various methods such as hot oven, hot air and extrusion, and create a uniform and impermeable surface.

These sheets are used in cases where the concrete structure needs better general properties (including abrasion resistance and mechanical resistance). The use of these sheets achieves the properties of plastics (flexibility and corrosion resistance) and the properties of concrete (mechanical resistance and high stiffness). As a result, while protecting the concrete surface, the useful life of the final structure is improved.

Improving the mechanical properties and preventing the increase of cracks created in concrete along with improving the shear properties and impact resistance of the polymer layer are some of the advantages of using these sheets. Increasing the friction to the bottom surface and preventing the sheet from sliding on steep slopes, reducing the growth of algae and the amount of sediment on the surfaces in contact with water, improving the flow of water in the pipes and fully protecting the bottom layer against the penetration of chemicals are the most important The advantages of such sheets are

V-Grip geomembrane is a very good protection against UV rays in long-term use. A range of high performance V-Grips, specially designed for use in applications such as potable water containment, landfill containment and waterproof tunnel lining, can extend the life of geomembranes manufactured from a wide range of polymers. They also offer excellent dispersion and meet internationally recognized standards. The high-quality carbon black we use provides outstanding UV performance, while our advanced stabilizer package provides thermal stability and excellent long-term life expectancy.

Durability of V Grip geomembrane

Correct selection of antioxidants and UV additives is critical to maintain the mechanical properties of geosynthetics. We have extensive expertise in admixture packages and their incorporation into polymers to produce highly technical solutions for geosynthetics, so our admixture solutions meet international weathering and aging standards, giving regulators and engineers confidence in the long-term durability and integrity of geosynthetic products. .

Chemical resistance of V Grip geomembrane

The final durability of geosynthetic compounds used in municipal solid waste landfilling, packaging and chemical separation is a function of resistance to factors such as cracking, the effectiveness of its antioxidant additives, the stresses created in geosynthetic applications during installation and implementation operations. . With its extensive knowledge of polymers and additives, Arian Khak creates the right solutions for geosynthetic applications where chemical resistance is required.

Geomembrane V Grip welding capability

Ensuring good weldability, by eliminating additive migration that can cause fusion welding problems, requires careful selection of the additive carrier and package system. We have extensive knowledge, expertise and testing to ensure all critical parameters are met.

Regardless of the polymer used, our compounds and masterbatches can be formulated to provide an optimal balance of mechanical properties including environmental stress cracking, tensile strength, flexural strength, impact, hardness, creep resistance, thermal deflection temperature. , provide thermal and mechanical performance. , to provide you with the widest selection of suitable materials for your application.

Summary

V-Grip geomembranes are made of heavy polyethylene and the main use of these products is covering concrete structures to protect the concrete surface from corrosion. This product, like geomembrane, has high chemical resistance properties in terms of molecular structure and impermeability, and in this way, it increases the lifespan of the concrete structure several times.

The advantages of these coatings compared to multi-component coatings:
• Higher chemical and mechanical resistance
• The disadvantages of coatings such as epoxy, including its fragility and low resistance, have been eliminated.

Polyethylene sheets show high tear resistance due to the ability to increase the length several times in case of concrete movement.

Advantages of clipped sheets
• Easy and safe installation
• High impact resistance and shear resistance
• Chemical resistance and long life
• Optimal pull out resistance
• Resistance up to 100 °C
• Resistance to UV rays from the sun
