Abstract

Geosynthetic Clay Liners (GCL); is a material consisting of a fine granular powder or sodium bentonite placed between two layers of a geosynthetic material, usually a geotextile or geomembrane. GCLs; The bentonite contained in the geotextiles on both sides is bonded with an adhesive, needle punch or suture bonding. Needle punching causes some fibers in the upper geotextile to extend into the bentonite and lower geotextile, binding the entire structure together. Fibers pierced in the lower geotextile either rely on natural entanglement and friction to hold the GCL together, or are heated and fused to the underlying geotextile, potentially creating a stronger bond between the two geotextiles and bentonite. Bentonite is the most important component of GCLs and is a granular clay composed of highly adsorbing volcanic ash (usually sodium bentonite). This material has high water retention and swelling potential. The hydraulic properties and conductivity of GCLs vary depending on the quality of the clay used. The properties of bentonite clay can be enhanced by adding other additives. In this paper, the physical and mechanical properties of GCL has been studied.

Özet

Geosentetik Kil Örtüleri (GCL); genellikle bir geotekstil veya geomembran olan bir geosentetik malzemenin iki katmanı arasına konan ince bir granüler toz veya sodyum bentonitten oluşan malzemedir. GCL’ler; her iki taraftaki geotekstillerin içerdiği bentonit ile bir yapıştırıcı, iğneyle delme veya dikiş bağlama ile yapıştırılır. İğne delme işlemi, üstteki geotekstildeki bazı liflerin tüm yapıyı birbirine bağlayarak bentonit ve alt geotekstile uzanmasına neden olur. Alt geotekstilde delinen lifler ya GCL'yi bir arada tutmak için doğal dolanma ve sürtünmeye dayanır ya da ısıtılarak alttaki geotekstile kaynaşarak potansiyel olarak iki geotekstil ve bentonit arasında daha güçlü bir bağ oluşturur. Bentonit GCL’lerin en önemli bileşenidir ve yüksek oranda adsorbe eden volkanik küllerden oluşan (genellikle sodyum bentonittir) granüler kildir. Bu malzeme yüksek su tutma ve şişme potansiyeline sahiptir. GCL’lerin hidrolik özellikleri ve iletkenliği kullanılan kilin kalitesine bağlı olarak değişmektedir. Bentonit kilinin özellikleri başka katkı maddeleri de eklenerek güçlendirilebilir. Bu makale kapsamında, geosentetik malzeme türlerinden olan Geosentetik Kil Örtüsü malzemesinin fiziksel ve mekaniksel özellikleri ele alınmıştır.
