DRILINE - - Smooth (LLDPE) Specifications

DRILINE® SMOOTH (LLDPE) Product Data Sheet(available from 0.5 – 2.5 mm)DRILINE® SMOOTH (LLDPE) is a black, high quality, linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) geomembrane produced from speciallyformulated, virgin polyethylene resin with outstanding flexibility. The polyethylene resin is designed specifically for flexiblegeomembrane applications. Its high uniaxial and multiaxial elongation characteristics make it very suitable for applications wheredifferential or localized subgrade settlements are expected such as landfill closure cappings, leach pads, or any application whereelongation or puncture resistance is critical. DRILINE® SMOOTH (LLDPE) contains approximately 97.5% polyethylene, 2.5% carbonblack and trace amounts of antioxidants and heat stabilizers. DRILINE® SMOOTH (LLDPE) has excellent resistance to UV radiationand is suitable for exposed applications. These product specifications meet or exceed GRI-GM 17.Tested Property Unit Test Method Values (*)Thickness (a) mm ASTM D 5199 0.5 0.75 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5Density g/cm3 ASTM D 792 =0.939 =0.939 =0.939 =0.939 =0.939 =0.939Tensile Properties(each Direction)(Minimum Average)Strength at Break Elongation at BreakN/mm%ASTM D 638 / 6693;type IV; 200 mm/min;lo = 50mm 138002080033 (27)950 (800)50 (40)950 (800)66 (53)950 (800)82 (66)950 (800)Tear Resistance(Minimum Average) N ASTM D 1004 50 70 110 (100) 165 (150) 220 (200) 275 (250)Puncture Resistance(Minimum Average) N ASTM D 4833 120 190 320 (250) 430 (370) 550 (500) 660 (620)Carbon BlackContent% % ASTM D 1603 2.0 – 3.02.0 –3.0 2.0 – 3.0 2.0 – 3.0 2.0 – 3.0 2.0 – 3.0Carbon BlackDispersion Category ASTM D 5596 1 / 2 (b) 1 / 2 (b) 1 / 2 (b) 1 / 2 (b) 1 / 2 (b) 1 / 2 (b)Dimensional Stability(each Direction) %ASTM D 1204 (100oC/1h) ±2 ±2 ±2 ±2 ±2 ±2Melt Flow Index © g/10 minASTM D 1238(190 oC / 5.0 kg)(190 oC / 2.16 kg)=3.0=1.0=3.0=1.0=3.0=1.0=3.0=1.0=3.0=1.0=3.0=1.0Reference Property Unit Test Method ValuesMultiaxial Elongation atBreak %Similar to ASTM D5617; Ø= 500m =30 =30 80 80 80 80Low TemperatureBrittlenessoC ASTM D 746 -77 -77 -77 -77 -77 -77Oxidative InductionTime (OIT) minASTM D 3895 (200oC; Pure O2; 1 atm) =100 =100 =100 =100 =100 =100UV Resistance (d)HP-OIT retained after1,600 hours (e)% GRI-GM 11ASTM D 5885 =35 =35 =35 =35 =35 =35Roll Width (approx.)
