Frost Blanket

Product catalog summary
Product Description: The Frost Blanket is a composite geotextile product designed to enhance drainage and act as a permeable capillary break to prevent frost heave. It consists of an extruded polyethylene (PE) net core with a top layer of T2000UV white nonwoven thermally bonded geotextile and a bottom layer of T2000UV brown hydrophobically enhanced nonwoven geotextile.
Construction: The core is made of extruded PE net, with the top and bottom layers being thermally bonded nonwoven geotextiles made from polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE).
Hydraulic Properties: The in-plane water flow is measured under different confining pressures: at 20kPa, the flow is 0.50 l.m.s (10-3m2/s), and at 200kPa, it is 0.25 l.m.s (10-3m2/s).
Mechanical Properties: The tensile strength in the machine direction (MD) is 30 kN/m, and the CBR puncture resistance is 5000 N.
Physical Properties: The mass per unit area is 820 g/m2, thickness is 5.5 mm, roll width options are 2.0 or 4.0 meters, roll length options are 25 or 100 meters, filter overlap is 100 mm, and roll weight is 55 kg.
Installation: The product should be installed with the white nonwoven fabric facing up.
Notes: The Frost Blanket features a three-dimensional net structure with TERRAM geotextile layers bonded by thermal lamination. The quoted results are family means from appropriate tests over time, and the mechanical tensile strength values are means in the MD length direction. In-plane water flow is also measured in the MD length direction.
Disclaimer: The information provided is accurate to the best of the company's knowledge, but no warranty or liability is accepted for its accuracy or completeness.
