Geotextile Characterization and Pore-Size Distribution: Part III. Comparison of Methods and Application to Design

Abstract: Geotextiles are widely used in filtration applications. For continued growth in this area, it is critical that geotextiles be properly designed for these applications to prevent failures. The geotextile property that is most directly related to the design of a geotextile as a filter is the pore-size distribution of the geotextile. The main objective of this study was to compare the performance of the following six different test methods to evaluate the pore-size distribution of geotextiles: dry sieving, hydrod… Show more

“…Limitations of electrospun nanofiber meshes Preliminary CommuniCation Different methods have been proposed in the literature to measure the pore size and degree of porosity. Sieving methods [52], mercury intrusion porosimetry [53,54] and flow porosimetry [54] are among the most used methods to determine pore size. In the present study, the evaluation of pore size was performed by quantitative image ana lysis of SEM micrographs [55].…”

“…Among direct methods, the bubble point test (ASTM D 6767) is considered to provide reliable information on the number and size of the smallest effective opening channels (i.e. the constriction size) in a geotextile sample (Bhatia et al, 1996). However, the complexity of the test is a hurdle for its practical implementation.…”

“…Também existem métodos indiretos, que requerem cálculos para derivar os tamanhos de abertura de filtração a partir das medidas efetuadas, como os métodos da capilaridade e da análise de imagens. O método da análise de imagens foi desenvolvido por Rollin et al (1977) e nele o espaço dos poros do geotêxtil é preenchido por uma resina transparente e se emprega um analisador de imagens que permite a visualização dos poros e a obtenção de medidas em seções transversais do geotêxtil.. A intrusão de mercúrio fornece a distribuição de poros baseado no volume total de poros, mas não dá nenhuma informação sobre o número de poros ou tamanho de constrições do geotêxtil (Bhatia et al, 1996). O método de Bubble point Test (BBP) é baseado no princípio do fluxo capilar, no qual o material poroso somente permitirá a passagem do liquido quando a tensão aplicada exceder a atração capilar do liquido no maior poro e fornece informação da distribuição completa dos tamanhos das aberturas, o qual permite obter melhores critérios para projeto dos filtros (Elton & Hayes, 2007).…”
