 Nylon
Polyester
Polyethylene
Polyolefin
Polypropylene
Jute
Wool
Among all these fibers the Polyolefin is extensively used where as among natural jute and wool is used it not only serve the purpose but also after some year it degrades and act as the natural fertilizer.
Properties Requirements
The properties required for agro textiles are
Weather resistance- It must work effectively in cold as well as hot climatic conditions
Resistance to microorganisms-it must resistant to microorganism to protect the living being
Stable construction- the construction must be such that it must be stable for any application
Lightweight- the weight of the fabric should be such that it will bare by the plant.
Areas Of Applications
Agriculture, horticulture, protective textiles and landscaping: applications are in woven tape ground covers, wind-break screens, frost protection covers, hail netting, insect screens, silage protection, ventilation screens, shading and reflection screens, bind netting, etc.
Protective Membrane
Textile works with any type of ground and offers an equal performance in agricultural, residential applications or in drainage of the roads. Use it to prevent bad grasses or sand to block the crucial drains. This permeable textile under high-pressure and is extremely easy to install.
Available in rollers of 1 feet 6 inches out of 11 feet 6 inches
Separation Membrane
Remarkably strong, versatile, and effective. This fabric meets the separation requirements of most landscaping projects. Use Garden Helper to control weeds around trees and borders, prevent soil contamination, control erosion, and much more.
Available in rolls covering 107 sq. ft. to 5164 sq. ft.
Windscreens
Research is performed into the various parameters characterizing agro textiles used as windscreens. The often-used 'total open area' is not an unequivocal parameter, opening size distribution and characteristic opening give more information on the structure of an agro textiles. To mutually compare the wind velocity reduction of various kinds of synthetic windscreens under all circumstances a velocity reduction coefficient is determined.
The usability of the velocity reduction coefficient and the efficiency of the different kinds of synthetic windscreens are studied in a wind tunnel belonging to the International Centre for Eremology (ICE) of the University of Gent. This research clearly demonstrates the usefulness of the velocity reduction coefficient as a measure for the direct comparison of synthetic windscreens; it enables thus the choice of a material based on the velocity reduction coefficient.
