BentIzol® SB L 5 bentonite mat — laminated liner on natural bentonite
Laminated mat on natural sodium bentonite for anti-seepage liners in media with pH 1–13; water pressure up to 7 atm.

In SAB L 4, activated sodium bentonite in a polypropylene carrier is supplemented with a laminating polyethylene film, so the mat is impermeable and works in media with pH from 1 to 13. The peel strength of the laminating layer is at least 360 N/m, static puncture resistance at least 2.2 kN, permissible hydrostatic pressure up to 7 atm. The mat is used in liners of sludge pits, tank farms, filling stations, landfills and manure lagoons, with the film facing the more aggressive side.
