High specific gravity geosynthetic comprising polypropylene

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a geosynthetic. In one embodiment, the geosynthetic contains a composition containing (A) a polypropylene and (B) from greater than 0 wt % to less than 3 wt % of a halogen-free flame retardant, based on the total weight of the composition. In another embodiment, the geosynthetic contains a composition containing (A) a polypropylene and (B) greater than 20 wt % zinc sulfide, based on the total weight of the composition. In another embodiment, the geosynthetic contains a composition containing (A) a polypropylene; (B) a halogen-free flame retardant; and (C) greater than 20 wt % zinc sulfide, based on the total weight of the composition. The composition has a specific gravity greater than 1.00 g/cc.
