7、176 Specification for Non-Reinforced Polyvinyl Chlo-ride (PVC) Geomembranes Used in Buried Applications3. Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 chemical fusion seams, nuse of a chemical agent todissolve the surface of the geomembrane for bonding.3.1.2 adhesive or bodied solvent, nthese seams are typi-cal

8、ly produced by applying an adhesive to both sides of thesheet to be bonded and then pressure is applied to the top sheetwith the bottom sheet supported by flat a firm surface3.1.3 thermal fusion, n also known as hot air or hotwedge, this technique introduces high-temperature air or gas ora hot wedge

9、 between two geomembrane surfaces to facilitatemelting. Pressure is applied to the top and/or bottom sheets ofthe geomembrane, forcing together the two surfaces to form acontinuous bond.3.1.3.1 DiscussionSome seams of this kind are made withdual bond tracks separated by a non-bonded gap. These seams

10、are referred to as dual track seams or double-track seams3.1.4 hot air or knife, n this technique melts the twogeomembrane surfaces to be seamed by running a hot metalwedge or hot air between them. Pressure is applied to the topor bottom geomembrane, or both, to form a continuous bond.These seams ar

11、e usually produced with a combination of ahand held heat gun or hand held hot wedge along with a handroller.3.2 For definitions of other terms, see Terminology D 4439.4. Classification4.1 Types of seams covered in this specification:4.1.1 Chemical Fusion,4.1.2 Adhesive or Bodied Solvent,4.1.3 Dielec

12、tric, and4.1.4 Thermal Fusion.5. Significance and Use5.1 Significancethe increased use of geomembranes asbarrier materials to restrict fluid migration from one location toanother in various applications, and the various types ofseaming methods used in joining geomembrane sheets, hascreated a need to

15、59, United States.5.2 UseStandard seam specification provides informationas to the status of the seam. Data obtained by this standard canbe used in CQC/CQAdocuments. This test method is useful forspecification testing and for comparative purposes but does notnecessarily measure the ultimate strength

16、 that the seam mayacquire.6. Apparatus6.1 Tensile instrumentation shall meet the requirementsoutlined in Test Method D 638.6.2 Grip FacesGrip faces shall be a minimum 25 mm (1in.) wide and a minimum of 25 mm (1 in.) in length. Smoothrubber, fine serrated or coarse serrated grip faces have all beenfo

17、und to be suitable for testing geomembrane seams.7. Sample Preparation7.1 Cut a sample large enough to accommodate the removalof five (5) peel specimens and five (5) shear specimens (useFig. 1)NOTE 1Larger samples sizes may be required on site specific orproject specific or requirements for the purp

18、ose of archiving or third partytesting.7.2 Once the sample is received at the testing facility, thesample shall be acclimated at a standard laboratory environ-ment, Humidity between 50 and 70 % and a temperature of21.6 62 C (70.6 64 F) for a minimum of 40 hours for alltypes of seams, except thermo a

19、nd dielectric type seams, forthese types of seams a minimum of 4 hours at the standardlaboratory environment is required.NOTE 2 If samples are sent to the lab and testing is preformed priorto the required lab acclimating period then this must be noted on thesample results. However the sample should

20、be at least a minimum of 40hours from the time of fabrication and lab acclimation period should be atleast one (1) hour minimum.8. Specimen Preparation8.1 Cut five specimens in peel and five in sheer as shown inFig. 1.NOTE 3Cut out the 5 peel and 5 shear specimens from the sampletypically across the

21、 seam. In some conditions with seams without a crossflap, seams may have to be partially peeled open to initiate a peel test tab.8.2 Use 25.4 mm wide (1 in.) specimens8.3 Five specimens should be tested in 90 degree peel modeand five in shear8.4 The gage length for shear strength shall be 50.8 mm +t

22、he width of the seam (2 in. + the width of the seam)8.5 For peel test, position grips 13 mm (1/2 in.) on eitherside of seamFIG. 1 Seam SampleD74080829.
