Filament geotextiles have strong market competitiveness and good technical and economic

Filament geotextile is a fiberglass mesh structure material made by a special weaving process. This material has high heat resistance and cold resistance, high tensile strength, good elasticity, low expansion coefficient, strong wear resistance, tear resistance, and high chemical stability. The use of filament geotextile as asphalt pavement reinforcement material can prevent the pavement from cracking due to low temperature shrinkage, change the structural stress distribution of the pavement, prevent the expansion of reflective cracks, and reduce the rolling marks of ruts. After surface chemical treatment, this kind of fiberglass geotextile improves the surface properties of the glass fiber and enhances the bonding force between the glass fiber and the asphalt, so that it can be exposed to the asphalt mixture at a high temperature of 160°C without cracking and warping. Curved deformation. It has construction performance, can extend the service life of highways, and can relatively reduce the thickness of the pavement structural layer, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing highway construction costs. According to reports, as early as the early 1980s when the industry developed, fiberglass geotextiles of various specifications have been widely used in asphalt highway construction and asphalt pavement repair. The production technology and pavement construction operations of fiberglass geotextiles have been Standardized, and has shown strong market competitiveness and good technical and economic results.
