Abstract

Tensile properties were measured to compare the performance change of nonwoven geotextiles before and after plasma treatment. Friction tests were executed between the interface of geomembranes and nonwoven geotextiles, which use to the liner systems for the representative waste landfill in order to estimate of the friction properties. For hydrophobic treatment, C2F6 gas wasused and the electric power, the plasma treated time, and the gas flow rate were 100, 200, and 300watt, 1, 5, and 10min, and 40 and 60sccm, respectively. From the experimental results, tensile strength of nonwoven geotextiles increased after plasma treatment. Peak shear stress and the residual shear stress of nonwoven geotextiles were examined and frictional coefficients and angle were increased.
