Improving wicking properties for nonwoven geotextiles
Geosynthetics are rolls of man-made products that are used in roads and earthworks. These are often used to improve drainage and work very well in many instances. In some cases such as silt soils or silt-sized mine tailings, geosynthetic drainage doesn’t work well because of the naturally hydrophobic nature of the synthetic fibres. This project will look at ways to enhance the drainage performance in silt soils by modifying the properties of the geosynthetic product.
