Clay
Liners are available under the product name Bentomat®
CLT (manufactured by CETCO.)
The
Bentomat® needlepunching
process consistently reinforces the bentonite layer with thousands
of high tenacity fibers that resist and transfer the shearing
stresses into the encapsulating geotextiles.
The
uniform confinement provided by the fibers from this process
resist lateral migration of the bentonite clay within the
Bentomat® - in either a dry or hydrated
state.
The
needlepunched fibers are more durable over a wider range of
installation conditions and greatly reduce the adverse effects
of premature hydration during installation.
