[0002] Carbon fiber is a microcrystalline graphite material obtained by carbonizing and graphitizing organic fibers. It has the characteristics of high specific strength, high specific modulus, high temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, radiation resistance, fatigue resistance, creep resistance, electrical conductivity, heat transfer and small thermal expansion coefficient. The geogrid woven from it has excellent properties such as acid resistance, alkali resistance, corrosion resistance, aging resistance, high tensile strength, low elongation at break, and good creep resistance.

[0003] With the continuous development of carbon fiber performance, more and more industries and products are beginning to use carbon fiber. However, in the geosynthetics industry, the use of carbon fiber is still in its infancy. China Patent Publication No. CN2753792Y authorized a "carbon fiber geogrid" on January 25, 2006. Its technical features are: it has a coating and a mesh cloth, the coating is applied to the periphery of the mesh cloth, and the mesh cloth is a mesh cloth woven from carbon fiber by a fine knitting machine. Since the mesh cloth is made of carbon fiber and woven by a fine knitting machine, it fully utilizes the high tensile strength of carbon fiber materials, so that the quality of the project is effectively guaranteed.

[0004] China Patent Publication No. CN 110552113 A disclosed a "method for manufacturing carbon fiber woven cloth" on December 10, 2019. Its technical features are: providing a method for manufacturing carbon fiber woven cloth, including carbon fiber merging and expansion, dipping, slitting and closing, weaving, shaping and packaging.

[0046] The corresponding operators scan the barcode information and check whether the process sheet is consistent with the material information, and load the carbon fiber and other matrix fibers into the warp machine with tension control according to the process requirements.

[0047] Carbon fibers and other matrix fibers are woven into biaxial warp knitted grids through biaxial weft insertion warp knitting machines, and production information, quality information, equipment information, etc. are fed back to the MES platform.

[0048] The woven biaxial warp knitted grid is affixed with a barcode and transferred to the coating section.

[0049] The automatic mixing system accurately prepares the coating solution according to the process formula ratio published by the MES platform, and injects the coating solution into the coating machine.

[0050] The unwinding machine automatically unwinds according to the production speed, product specifications, and tension control requirements, and the carbon fiber geogrid is coated on the coating machine to form a coating layer.

[0051] The coated carbon fiber geogrid is dried once in a dryer, and the MES system verifies the equipment information according to the process to ensure the drying effect.

[0052] The semi-dried carbon fiber geogrid enters the wide-width stenter through the clamp. Through the heating device and the tension on both sides, the carbon fiber geogrid is stretched flat and the width of the weft is consistent.
