This manual is intended to describe the Quality Control and the Quality Assurance philosophy of Sinotech Environmental Technologies Limited and to set procedures for achieving a structured approach towards attaining the high quality of the products and services as demanded by the customers, and, to satisfy the company’s need for a systematic procedure operated by an effective and efficient Quality Control department within the organization.
Sinotech’s manufacturing Quality Control policy is to adhere to the highest standards of quality. All employees are required to strictly adhere to all published Quality Control standards at all times. Quality Assurance is an attitude that must prevail among all employees and that attitude, coupled with a strong Quality Control program, will ensure the highest quality product possible.
Sinotech’s Quality Control and research laboratory will perform concurrent testing to assure control over all products. The laboratory will also be capable of supporting manufacturing, product development, and research needs. To this end, Sinotech is sensitive to Quality Assurance suggestions offered by plant and filed personnel, and welcomes the suggestions of its customers.
Our Quality Control Program is an ongoing system of monitoring and testing materials as they are delivered and manufactured. The Quality Control Department reserves the right to reject all raw materials or manufactured materials not meeting Sinotech specifications.
Our Quality Assurance verifies compliance with accepted procedures for training, manufacturing processes, Quality Control testing, material handling, and data review and distribution. Including verifying the validity of test results, the correctness of test procedures, and the proper operation of the test equipment.
These procedures apply to all production and must be adhered to at all times. They should be updated at least annually. Conformance to procedures will be monitored at a minimum once per year. This supersedes all previous procedures relating to Quality Control.
Sinotech’s Quality Control Laboratory is fully equipped to perform a wide range of conformance testing on geosynthetic products. All samples are die cut to ensure uniformity and to meet ASTM requirements. Specimens not meeting ASTM standards are rejected. All Quality Control test results are stored in a computer database for ease of retrieval.
All laboratory equipment is periodically checked for proper calibration. Insertion equipment is self calibrating and the calibration sequence is performed at the beginning of each test. All laboratory tensile testing machines are calibrated annually, within ASTM E-4 specifications, by an independent agency. The equipment is routinely checked to ensure proper operating conditions.
Our testing involves short term testing aimed at “finger printing” the raw material supplied. Every resin demonstrates its own individual characteristics that is determined by its chemical make-up and molecular weight. For reference purposes, density and melt index serves to identify the material as being acceptable or not. A visual inspection for contaminants is also performed.
Our smooth sheet is monitored on an ongoing basis. As the geomembrane is being produced, thickness readings are taken continuously over the entire sheet. This data is used to determine the minimum, maximum and average thickness values for Sinotech has established specifications with which each lot of raw material must comply. The raw material suppliers must agree to comply with these specifications. Specific tests must be conducted by the supplier on every lot of material, the results of which are submitted and verified via selected conformance testing at Sinotech’s laboratory.
Each container (33,000 lbs.) of resin is not unloaded until testing is conducted by Sinotech to confirm that the quality of the material is set within parameters established by Sinotech. This testing consists of density, melt flow index and volatile content. All non-conforming materials are immediately isolated and the supplier is contacted. All departments are notified and the shipping/receiving personnel are instructed to complete all paperwork necessary to return the defective materials to the supplier.
Upon verification of material compliance a formal document releasing the material for unloading and/or use is issued. The incoming resin used by manufacturing is continually monitored by the Quality Control department.

each roll and are verified by thickness testing upon sampling of the finished goods. Standard testing (tensile, thickness, carbon black dispersion, etc. and visual inspection) is conducted at least every other roll of sheet production.
The textured sheet is also monitored on an ongoing basis. As the geomembrane is being produced, thickness readings are taken continuously over the entire sheet. This data is used to determine the minimum, maximum and average thickness values for each roll and are verified by thickness testing upon sampling of the finished goods. Standard testing (tensile, thickness, carbon black dispersion, etc. and visual inspection) is conducted at least every other roll of sheet production.
An electrical spark detector is located on every production line. This provides immediate notification of holes in the finished sheet. If a hole is detected the alarm is triggered and the hole located. Rolls containing holes are immediately rejected and removed from the standard product inventory.
All rolls are labeled with two self adhesive stickers, one protruding from the roll at one and and a second positioned under the first layer at the opposite end of the roll. When the material is shipped we record the label for Quality Control certification. The roll is then loaded by either crane or forklift, depending on the type of transportation required by the customer, be it a standard forty foot container or open top container.
Extrusion rods are labeled by hand with a permanent marker on the label located at the end of the reel. When the extrusion rod is shipped, shipping personnel record the rod number, shift production, and rod weight. This information is given to Quality Control for certification purposes. The extrusion rod is then bagged for shipment.
For each roll produced, a sample is cut, identified and archived for a minimum period of 5 years.
When test results become available they are then immediately entered into Sinotech’s laboratory database from which all quality control certificates are generated. This database is backed up daily to guarantee that all data is retained. This database can also generate reports for specific orders, projects, types of material, dates of manufacture, thicknesses, resin batch numbers, etc. Test results and statistical control reports are made available to clients upon request.
In addition to finished product data, all resin supplier quality assurance documents, Sinotech resin test reports, and resin samples are retained for a period of 5 years.
Sinotech’s laboratory is staffed whenever production is occurring; this is 24 hours a day 365 days a year. This minimizes the possible occurrence of substandard material being manufactured prior to identification of the problem.

Oxidative Induction Time
Upon arrival of raw materials to our facilities in Qingdao, China the raw materials are not used for production of geomembranes until all testing is conducted and satisfactory test results are obtained. The following tests are conducted on each 50,000 kg of resin received.
Density is determined in accordance with the procedure established in ASTM D1505.
Prepare a constant temperature density column by filling a graduated cylinder with fluids of continuously varying density, such that the density gradient is achieved throughout the height of the cylinder.
Prepare three (3) specimens of material to be checked for density. Each specimen should be approximately 0.2 inches across. The specimen can be of any shape.
Lower the specimen and glass beads of known densities into the density column.
Observe the location of the glass beads and the specimen using graduations etched in the cylinder. Calculate the density and report the results in units of grams per cubic centimeter.
Melt Flow Index is determined in accordance with the procedure established in ASTM D12138 - Condition E. Heat a plastometer to 190ºC.
Add 3.7 grams of resin to the cylinder of the plastometer, compact the resin, add piston, and place 2.06 kilogram weight in piston.
Allow the plastometer to rest. At the conclusion of eight (8) minutes remove and discard all the plastic which has been extruded through the 0.0825 inch diameter hole at the end of the cylinder opposite the piston.
Allow plastometer to rest for an additional ten (10) minutes. At the conclusion of the test period, remove the extruded plastic and allow it to cool at laboratory conditions.
Weigh the extrude and report the results in units of grams per ten (10) minutes.
Oxidative Induction Time is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D3895. Compression mold a sample into sheet format (thickness of 250 ± 15 m)
Use a bore hole cutter to punch out a disk from the plaque and record the sample weight. Place the sample disk into the appropriate pan type.
Prepare an empty sealed pan to be used as a reference. Place the specimen and reference pans into the instrument cell.
Turn on the nitrogen-gas flow at a rate of 50 mL/min (with an absolute pressure of 140 kPa).
Adjust the temperature-calibration software to set the melting point at 156.63 and 231.97°C for indium and tin, respectively. Load the sample and reference pans into the cell.
Allow 5 min for a nitrogen prepurge prior to beginning the heating cycle to eliminate any residual oxygen. Commence programmed heating of the sample from ambient temperature to 200°C at a rate of 20°C/min.
When the temperature has been reached discontinue programmed heating and equilibrate the sample for 5 min at the set temperature.

The following tests are performed by our laboratory personnel in accordance with the standard test methods detailed in the indicated ASTM section unless otherwise noted, and are made for explanatory purposes only. The primary properties of the finished geomembrane is tested every other roll. Products must be sampled from every other roll. Samples must be taken even if they cannot be tested until a later date. Sampling is done by production personnel.
The following tests are performed on our smooth sheet at least every other roll.
Thickness is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D5199.
For the laboratory sample, take a full width sample of sufficient length along the selvage or the edge of the roll.
Remove test specimens from the laboratory sample in a randomly distributed pattern across the width with no specimen taken nearer than 152 mm (6 inches) from the edge.
From each laboratory sample, remove the specimens so that the edge of the specimen will extend beyond the edge of the presser foot by 10 mm (0.39 inches) in all directions (that is at least a circle of 75 mm [3 inches] diameter).
With force applied to the presser foot on the base (no test specimen present), zero the measuring scale or record the “base reading”.
Lift the presser foot, center the test specimen on the base under the presser foot, and bring the presser foot into contact with the material. Gradually increase the pressure to 20 kPa (2.9 psi).
After the full force has been applied to presser foot for 5 seconds against the specimen, record the thickness value to the nearest 0.002 mm and remove the specimen from the test device.
Repeat the method for each of the remaining specimens.
Calculate the average of the thickness for all the test results as read directly from the test instrument. Report average nominal thickness.
Tensile Properties is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D6693.
Die cut five (5) dumbbell shaped specimen with the length parallel to the machine direction and five (5) with the length perpendicular to the machine direction using an ASTM D 6693 Type IV die.
.
Insert the ends of the specimen into the jaws of the testing machine, aligning the long axis of the specimen and the grips with an imaginary line joining the points of attachment of the grips to the machine. The jaws should have an initial separation of 65 millimeters.
Start the machine so the jaws separate at a rate of 50 mm/min. Continue separating the jaws until the specimen breaks. Calculate stress at yield and break. Report units in newtons.
Calculate the strain at yield and break. Report in units of percent. A 33 millimeter gage length is used for yield calculation. A 50 millimeter gage length is used for break calculations.
Tear Resistance is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D1004.
Die cut ten (10) samples with the length parallel to the machine direction and ten (10) samples with the length perpendicular to the machine direction.
Measure the thickness of the sample at several points.
Place the sample in the grips of the testing machine so that the long axis of the sample is in align with the points of attachment of the testing machine.
Apply a load of 51-mm (2-in.)/min rate of grip separation.
After complete rupture of the sample, the maximum tearing load in pounds shall be noted from the dial scale or recorder chart and recorded.
Report the average resistance to tearing for all samples and record in pounds.
Puncture Resistance is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D4833. Cut ten (10) samples with a minimum diameter of 100 mm (4 in.).
Center and secure the sample between the holding plates of the testing apparatus.
Test at a machine speed of 300 ± 10 mm (12 in. ± ½ in.)/min. until the puncture rod completely ruptures the test specimen. Read the puncture resistance from the greatest force registered on the recording instrument during the test.
Report the results in units of pounds.

Stress Crack Resistance is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D5397. Die cut thirty (30) dumbbell shaped samples, each sample must be from one direction.
Cut into each sample a control imperfection (notch) on one surface. The depth of the notch should produce a ligament thickness of 80% of the nominal thickness of the sample.
Calculate the tensile force to be applied to each individual sample.
Fill the test bath with reagent, and adjust the temperature to 50 ± 1°C (122 ± 2°F). Attach the sample to the hooks of the test apparatus.
Immerse the samples and allow temperature equilibrium to be reached.
Load each sample with its respective weight and record the elapsed time to failure to the nearest 0.1 hour.
Report the test data in graphic form by plotting the logarithm of percentage yield stress versus the logarithm of the average failure time for each stress level.
Carbon Black Content is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D1603.
Place a weighed quantity of polyethylene in a 600°Celsius tube furnace with a flowing, oxygen free, nitrogen atmosphere. Allow the sample to remain in the furnace for fifteen (15) minutes. During this time all of the polyethylene should boil off leaving only the carbon black.
Cool the carbon black for fifteen (15) minutes in a desiccator. Weigh. Report the results in units of percent.
Carbon Black Dispersion is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D5596.
Select five samples randomly across the full roll width. Sample size should each be approximately 2.54 cm² (1 in.²).
Using a microtome, prepare one thin section in the cross-machine direction from each sample. Each thin section should be (1) thin enough (8 to 20- m thick) to allow for adequate light transmission and (2) free from major defects such as gouges caused by a nicked or dull knife, or such as torn or distorted portions of the thin sections caused by over-stressing or rough handling.
Mount each excised thin section between a microscope slide and a cover glass, using a clear adhesive medium.
Prepare the microscope for transmitting light microscopy with the calibrated reticle positioned between one eyepiece lens and the objective.
Before attempting any close, microscopic examination of the thin section, place the mounted thin section on the microscope stage positioned between the light source and the objective.
Place the overlay microscope slide on top of the mounted thin section so that each of the two circles on the overlay overlaps the thin section fully. The area within the circles is called a random field of view or (Rf).
View the sample at 100X.
Examine each Rf microscopically, and locate the largest carbon agglomerate or inclusion.
Compare visually the microscope’s field of view containing the largest carbon agglomerate in the Rf with the carbon Adjunct D35) dispersion reference chart.
Record the category that resembles that field of view most closely.
Repeat the above procedures until ten category readings are recorded. No more than two Rf’s are taken from each of no less than five thin sections.
Report the category for each field of view.
Oxidative Induction Time is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D3895. Compression mold a sample into sheet format (thickness of 250 ± 15 m)
Use a bore hole cutter to punch out a disk from the plaque and record the sample weight. Place the sample disk into the appropriate pan type.
Prepare an empty sealed pan to be used as a reference. Place the specimen and reference pans into the instrument cell.
Turn on the nitrogen-gas flow at a rate of 50 mL/min (with an absolute pressure of 140 kPa).
Adjust the temperature-calibration software to set the melting point at 156.63 and 231.97°C for indium and tin, respectively. Load the sample and reference pans into the cell.
Allow 5 min for a nitrogen prepurge prior to beginning the heating cycle to eliminate any residual oxygen. Commence programmed heating of the sample from ambient temperature to 200°C at a rate of 20°C/min.
When the temperature has been reached discontinue programmed heating and equilibrate the sample for 5 min at the set temperature.
Once the equilibrium time has expired, change the gas to oxygen at a flow rate of 50 ± mL/min. This is considered the zero time of the test procedure.
Continue isothermal operation until 2 min have elapsed after the steepest point of the exotherm has been displayed. μ

Tensile Properties
The following tests are performed by our laboratory personnel in accordance with the standard test methods detailed in the indicated ASTM section unless otherwise noted, and are made for explanatory purposes only. The primary properties of the finished geomembrane is tested every other roll. Products must be sampled from every other roll. Samples must be taken even if they cannot be tested until a later date. Sampling is done by production personnel.
The following tests are performed on our textured sheet (double-sided and single-sided) at least once every other roll.
Thickness is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D 5994.
Take a full width sample of sufficient length, exclude the inner and outer wraps of the roll or any material not representative of the sample.
Remove test specimens from the laboratory sample in a randomly distributed pattern across the width, with no specimen taken closer than 15 cm to the roll edge.
From each unit in the laboratory sample, remove the specimens so that the edge of the specimen will extend beyond the edge of the gage points by 10 mm in all directions.
Take a number of test specimens per laboratory sample such that the user may expect, at the 95% probability level, that the test result is not more than 5% of the average above or below the true average of the sample.
Bring the specimens to a temperature equilibrium of 21 ± 2°C and a relative humidity of 60 ±10%. Test the conditioned specimens in the standard atmosphere as described in the previous step.
With the specified force applied directly to the pressure point on the base point (i.e., with no test specimen present), zero the measuring scale or record the initial non-zero reading.
Lift the pressure point and insert the test specimen. While allowing the pressure point to come slowly into contact with the test specimen, adjust the test specimen to locate the gage points in the “low spot” or “valley” in between the projections, or into the indentations, of the textured surface(s) to obtain the local minimum thickness reading.

Tear Resistance is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D1004.
Die cut ten (10) samples with the length parallel to the machine direction and ten (10) samples with the length perpendicular to the machine direction.
Measure the thickness of the sample at several points.
Place the sample in the grips of the testing machine so that the long axis of the sample is in align with the points of attachment of the testing machine.
Apply a load of 51-mm (2-in.)/min rate of grip separation.
After complete rupture of the sample, the maximum tearing load in pounds shall be noted from the dial scale or recorder chart and recorded.
Report the average resistance to tearing for all samples and record in pounds.
Puncture Resistance is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D4833. Cut ten (10) samples with a minimum diameter of 100 mm (4 in.).
Center and secure the sample between the holding plates of the testing apparatus.
Test at a machine speed of 300 ± 10 mm (12 in. ± ½ in.)/min. until the puncture rod completely ruptures the test specimen. Read the puncture resistance from the greatest force registered on the recording instrument during the test.
Report the results in units of pounds.
Stress Crack Resistance is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D5397. Die cut thirty (30) dumbbell shaped samples, each sample must be from one direction.
Cut into each sample a control imperfection (notch) on one surface. The depth of the notch should produce a ligament thickness of 80% of the nominal thickness of the sample.
Calculate the tensile force to be applied to each individual sample.
Fill the test bath with reagent, and adjust the temperature to 50 ± 1°C (122 ± 2°F). Attach the sample to the hooks of the test apparatus.
Immerse the samples and allow temperature equilibrium to be reached.
Load each sample with its respective weight and record the elapsed time to failure to the nearest 0.1 hour.
Report the test data in graphic form by plotting the logarithm of percentage yield stress versus the logarithm of the average failure time for each stress level.
Carbon Black Content is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D 1603.
Place a weighed quantity of polyethylene in a 600 degree Celsius tube furnace with a flowing, oxygen free, nitrogen atmosphere.
Allow the sample to remain in the furnace for fifteen (15) minutes. During this time all of the polyethylene should boil off leaving only the carbon black.
Cool the carbon black for fifteen (15) minutes in a desiccator. Weigh. Report the results in units of percent.
Carbon Black Dispersion is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D 5596.
Select five samples randomly across the full roll width. Sample size should each be approximately 2.54 cm² (1 in.²).
Using a microtome, prepare one thin section in the cross-machine direction from each sample. Each thin section should be (1) thin enough (8 to 20- m thick) to allow for adequate light transmission and (2) free from major defects such as gouges caused by a nicked or dull knife, or such as torn or distorted portions of the thin sections caused by over-stressing or rough handling.
Mount each excised thin section between a microscope slide and a cover glass, using a clear adhesive medium.
Prepare the microscope for transmitting light microscopy with the calibrated reticle positioned between one eyepiece lens and the objective.
Before attempting any close, microscopic examination of the thin section, place the mounted thin section on the microscope stage positioned between the light source and the objective.
Place the overlay microscope slide on top of the mounted thin section so that each of the two circles on the overlay overlaps the thin section fully. The area within the circles is called a random field of view or (Rf).
View the sample at 100X.
Examine each Rf microscopically, and locate the largest carbon agglomerate or inclusion.
Compare visually the microscope’s field of view containing the largest carbon agglomerate in the Rf with the carbon Adjunct D35) dispersion reference chart.
Record the category that resembles that field of view most closely. μ

Oxidative Induction Time is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D3895. Compression mold a sample into sheet format (thickness of 250 ± 15 m)
Use a bore hole cutter to punch out a disk from the plaque and record the sample weight. Place the sample disk into the appropriate pan type.
Prepare an empty sealed pan to be used as a reference. Place the specimen and reference pans into the instrument cell.
Turn on the nitrogen-gas flow at a rate of 50 mL/min (with an absolute pressure of 140 kPa).
Adjust the temperature-calibration software to set the melting point at 156.63 and 231.97°C for indium and tin, respectively. Load the sample and reference pans into the cell.
Allow 5 min for a nitrogen prepurge prior to beginning the heating cycle to eliminate any residual oxygen. Commence programmed heating of the sample from ambient temperature to 200°C at a rate of 20°C/min.
When the temperature has been reached discontinue programmed heating and equilibrate the sample for 5 min at the set temperature.
Once the equilibrium time has expired, change the gas to oxygen at a flow rate of 50 ± mL/min. This is considered the zero time of the test procedure.
Continue isothermal operation until 2 min have elapsed after the steepest point of the exotherm has been displayed. Plot the data with the heat flow signal on the y-axis, versus time on the x-axis.
Report the results in minutes.
High Pressure OIT is determined in accordance with the procedures established in ASTM D5885. Cut several round samples 6.3 mm (0.25 in.) from the lab test sample.
Compression mold these samples into a uniform plaque to a thickness of 0.25 mm (10 mil). Cut samples from the plaque using a 6.3 mm (0.25 in.) bore hole cutter or punch.
Prepare a sample with a mass of 5 ± 1 mg.
Place the weighed sample into a cleaned specimen pan. Place the sample and reference pans into the cell.
Secure the top plate of the test chamber and tighten the cell system. Close the pressure release valve and the inlet valve of the cell.
Adjust the pressure of the cylinder regulator to deliver 3.4-MPa (500-psi) test pressure. Slowly open the inlet valve of the cell and allow oxygen to purge the cell for 2 min.
After 2 min, close the outlet valve, allow the cell to reach full pressure, then turn off the inlet valve and the oxygen supplied from the cylinder.
Commence programmed heating of the specimen from ambient temperature to 150°C at a rate of 20°C/min. Zero time is taken at the initiation of the temperature program.
Hold the temperature isothermally at 150°C until the oxidative exothermic peak is detected. At the same time, the thermal curve of the entire test is being recorded.
Record the sample temperature 5 min after isothermal conditions have been reached. Terminate the test after the oxidative exothermal peak has passed through its maximum value. Plot the data with the heat flow signal on the y-axis, versus time on the x-axis.
Report the results in minutes.
A visual inspection is made of the liner material to ensure that it is free of pores, pinholes, or other detrimental defects. From the daily production testing, a quality certificate is issued by the laboratory.
