Separation Membrane is used in concrete roads to enable the PQC layer to slip atop the DLC layer as well as to create an impermeable barrier between the PQC – DLC interface. This barrier prevents permeation of water and chemicals between the two layers through percolation or capillary action.
Advantages:
1) Reduces surface defects and cracks in PQC. 2) Batch tested for conformance to MORTH, MOST & IRC code. 3) Price efficiency while maintaining high quality. 4) Fuel / Solvent / Water impermeability under intense weather conditions. 5) Excellent tensile strength, abrasion and puncture resistance. 6) Continuous layer structure & smooth surface free from puncture holes or any other physical defects.
Description:
These are continuous Layer structure sheets made of olefin based polymeric resin formulations.
Design Criteria:
Formulations for the Separation Membrane is designed keeping in mind the end goal of reducing cracks in concrete by enabling efficient slip & impermeability while maintaining elasticity and toughness. For this purpose specialized resins are synthesized to impart superior physical properties. High tensile strength imparts the elasticity required for resisting tearing upon impact on sharp rocks on the Separation Membrane during unloading from Dumpers, Hyvas or TMs. A proprietary Iso-Thermal Extrusion process imparts the required surface properties for retaining smoothness after the abrasive action of vibrating sand and aggregates during spreading & compaction of concrete.
