Description

Introduction

Uniaxially stretched geogrid is a kind of high-strength geotextile, which is mainly made of high molecular polymer, added with certain anti ultraviolet and anti-aging additives, re oriented and arranged in a linear state through uniaxial stretching, extruded and pressed into thin plates, punched into regular pore networks, and then stretched longitudinally.

Applications

Road construction: PP Uniaxial Geogrids are commonly used in the construction of roads and highways to enhance the load-bearing capacity of the soil and prevent pavement cracking.
Slope stabilization: These geogrids are effective in stabilizing slopes and preventing soil erosion, providing increased safety and stability to embankments and slopes.
Retaining wall reinforcement: PP Uniaxial Geogrids are used to reinforce the soil behind retaining walls, improving their structural integrity and preventing soil movement.
Landfill and mining applications: These geogrids are also utilized in landfill and mining projects to provide soil reinforcement and prevent soil settlement.

Working Drawing

In this process, the polymer is oriented in a linear state and forms a uniformly distributed, high node strength, long elliptical network overall structure. This structure has a relatively high tensile strength and modulus, reaching 100-200Mpa in tensile strength, which is close to the level of low-carbon steel and greatly superior to traditional or existing reinforced materials. It has a high early tensile strength and modulus (with an elongation of 2-5%) that exceeds international standards. A chain system that provides ideal force bearing and diffusion for the soil.
