High density polyethylene liner, also called HDPE Liner,  is defined as an impermeability synthetic or reinforced bituminous sheet for oil tank application. BPM Geomembrane is the trusted HDPE liner manfuacturer and supplier, we wholesale geomembrane HDPE liner with custom thickness and size at great factory price.

1. What Is A High Density Polyethylene Liner?

An high density polyethylene liner, is a heavy-duty geomembrane liner used in a wide range of engineering and environmental applications. It is renowned for its exceptional durability, flexibility, and resistance to chemicals, which makes it a preferred choice for lining landfills, ponds, reservoirs, and other structures requiring containment.

HDPE liners are manufactured using high-density polyethylene, a thermoplastic polymer known for its strength and resilience. The thickness of HDPE liners can vary significantly, ranging from 20 mils (0.02 inches) up to 120 mils (0.12 inches) or more. The thickness chosen depends on the specific application and the level of protection required.

The versatility of HDPE liners lies in their ability to conform to the contours of the underlying surface, even in challenging terrain. Their flexibility allows for easy installation and adaptability to irregular shapes, ensuring a tight and secure fit. Furthermore, HDPE liners are resistant to UV radiation, chemical degradation, and punctures, ensuring long-term performance and reliability.

2. How To Make Best High Density Polyethylene Liner?

To make the best HDPE liner, BPM uses top-quality materials and a detailed manufacturing process.The liner is made from high-quality HDPE, sourced as virgin polyethylene resin.This resin combines exact amounts of carbon black, antioxidants, anti-aging agents, and UV resistance components to boost performance.For secure attachment to structures like oil tanks, the liner bonds using welding or adhesive techniques.Welding involves specialized equipment to melt and fuse edges, creating a seamless, watertight seal.Adhesive techniques use specific HDPE adhesives for a strong, reliable bond.BPM’s HDPE liner offers several benefits: cost-effective, durable, long-lasting, minimizing maintenance costs.It’s environmentally safe, resisting chemical degradation and preventing hazardous leakage.Excellent durability ensures reliable performance in tough conditions; chemical resistance prevents corrosion and deterioration.Fast deployment and easy transportation facilitate efficient installation and relocation.Combining finest HDPE materials, advanced formulation, and effective bonding techniques, BPM produces a superior HDPE liner.

3. What Are High Density Polyethylene Liner Used For?

High-density polyethylene (HDPE) liners are indeed widely used in various applications due to their excellent properties and versatility. They offer numerous advantages over other materials such as compacted clay, bentonite, concrete, steel, and bituminous materials. Here are some key areas where HDPE liners are extensively employed:

3.1 Tank Lining and Transportation

HDPE liners are commonly used to line tanks for storing various substances, including chemicals, wastewater, and fuels. They provide a reliable barrier against leaks and corrosion, ensuring the safety and integrity of the stored materials. Additionally, HDPE liners are utilized in transportation applications such as tunnels, where they provide waterproofing and protection against groundwater infiltration.

3.2 Environmental Applications

HDPE liners find significant use in environmental applications.They are employed in landfills to create a barrier between waste materials and the surrounding soil.Preventing the contamination of groundwater and soil.HDPE liners also play a crucial role in sand reservoirs.Acting as a containment solution to store and protect sand.Preventing erosion and maintaining its quality.

3.3 Geotechnical Applications

In geotechnical engineering, HDPE liners are utilized in various projects.They are commonly employed in dam construction to provide a watertight barrier.Preventing water from seeping through and ensuring the stability of the structure.HDPE liners offer a reliable alternative to traditional materials like compacted clay.Providing enhanced performance, flexibility, and resistance to punctures.

3.4 Substitution for Other Materials

HDPE liners are often chosen over other materials due to their superior properties.They offer advantages like chemical resistance, flexibility, durability, and easy installation.In applications where concrete or steel may be costly or impractical, HDPE liners are a cost-effective solution.Their versatility makes them a preferred choice for many industries and applications.HDPE liners help ensure environmental protection, contain hazardous materials, and extend structure longevity.They provide reliable performance, ease of installation, and cost-effectiveness.This makes them ideal for diverse engineering and environmental projects.High-density polyethylene liners are used in tank lining and transportation (tunnels).They’re also used in environmental applications like landfills and sand reservoirs.Geotechnical applications such as dams use HDPE liners too.

4. Case Study of High Density Polyethylene Liner Indonesia for Oil Containment Tank

Oil leakage oil petrochemical plants inevitably occurs in transportation, processing, storage, etc, which will cause oil to leak into the sea through soil pores to make the sea  polluted.

Our XinJiang customer inquired about an HDPE liner for an oil containment project in October 2018.The project required an impermeable HDPE geomembrane for construction.He requested 60,000 square meters of high-density polyethylene liner.Concerned about our product’s anti-seepage performance, he visited our geomembrane factory.After confirming the quality of our HDPE liner, he signed an order contract with us.We provided detailed instructions on using and installing the HDPE liner.After supplying the product, we sent two technicians to the site to start construction.They completed the installation 15 days ahead of schedule, finishing three days early.
