Bentonite Waterproof Blanket (Bentonite GCL for short) is a new type of geosynthetics, mainly used for waterproofing and anti-seepage projects.
Bentonite Waterproof Blanket (Bentonite GCL for short) is a new type of geosynthetics, mainly used for waterproofing and anti-seepage projects. It consists of bentonite and two layers of geotextile (or one layer of geotextile and one layer of geomembrane). Bentonite is a natural clay mineral with strong water absorption, which swells when it comes into contact with water to form a colloid with excellent waterproof performance.

Main features
1. Excellent waterproof performance: Bentonite can form an impermeable gel-like substance after absorbing water and swelling, preventing water from passing through.
2. Self-healing: Even if the bentonite waterproof blanket has small cracks or damage, the expansion characteristics of bentonite can automatically fill these gaps, thereby restoring the waterproof function.
3. Easy construction: The laying of bentonite waterproof blanket is relatively simple, which can reduce the construction period and construction difficulty.
4. Environmental protection: Bentonite is a natural material and is harmless to the environment.
Application Areas
Bentonite waterproof blankets are widely used in various projects that require waterproofing or anti-seepage, including:
- Landfills
- Reservoirs and dams
- Sewage treatment pools
- Artificial lakes
- Tunnels and underground projects
This material is chosen mainly because of its good waterproof performance, durability and ease of construction, and is suitable for projects under a variety of complex geological and hydrological conditions.
