Hydrocarbons are colourless gases formed as a by-product of decomposing organic matter or from petroleum-based pollutants such as spilled diesel or kerosene. These harmful gases are commonly found on polluted 'brownfield' sites which are being increasingly used for modern property developments in both the commercial and residential sectors.
It is crucial that when gas protection is required, the site conditions, design and application are all taken into consideration to provide an impermeable membrane capable of surviving installation and subsequent traffic.
The Corden EPS Hydrocarbon Membrane is a high quality, high density polyethylene (HDPE) produced from specially formulated, proprietary virgin polyethylene resin designed specifically for flexible geomembrane applications.
The Corden EPS Hydrocarbon Membrane has outstanding chemical resistance, mechanical properties, environmental stress crack resistance, dimensional stability and thermal ageing characteristics. The Corden EPS Hydrocarbon Membrane also has excellent resistance to UV radiation and is suitable for exposed conditions.
Please note that these product properties are not a replacement for the manufacturer's literature and it is always recommended that Corden Group / BS Specialist Products is consulted before specifying.
