Transmissivity of Coir Latex Composite
Abstract This paper deals with transmissivity test conducted in laboratory on newly developed coir latex composite to be used as separator in flexible pavement. The coir latex composite is developed by treating coir fibre of varying fibre length, woven coir geotextile and nonwoven coir geotextile with optimum latex content (50%). Transmissivity of the composite is measured under varying hydraulic gradient and normal pressure using a specifically designed apparatus to simulate field condition. Transmissivity of the coir latex composite seems to decrease with increase in hydraulic gradient as well as with increase in normal pressure. The results are compared under test conditions without using the composite as well as with coir geotextiles without latex treatment.
