Common problems of artificial turf

※ Discoloration of grass fiber

1. The quality of grass fiber is unqualified, for example, the addition of anti-ultraviolet (UV) agent and anti-aging (amine) agent is too small;

2. The formula of grass fiber is unscientific, and too many poor quality additives;

3. The production equipment of artificial grass fiber is backward, the technology is poor, and the physical properties are unstable;

4. Environmental impact, such as strong ultraviolet radiation in some areas, acid rain corrosion, industrial pollution, etc.

※ Fuzzing, pilling and chalking of grass fiber

1. Because of the high frequency of use in schools, poor quality of the mesh fiber is in 1-2 years, and the better quality grass fiber will be split into 50-60 small filaments in different degrees in 4-5 years.

※ Shedding of grass fiber

1. The production process is poor, the quality of artificial grass base cloth and glue is not good, resulting in poor binding force on the grass as a whole;

2. The grass fiber adopts low-end raw materials, and the grass thread is disconnected from the middle when using;

3. The auxiliary materials used are unqualified (quartz sand particles are too large and not round), causing damage to the grass.

※ Corrosion and cracking at the bottom of artificial grass

1. The bottom of the artificial grass is thin and made of poor quality PP material;

2. The quality of the glue used at the bottom is poor or the glue application process is not good, too much and too thick;

3. Uneven foundation of the site is unqualified foundation, which will cause great damage to the base fabric of artificial grass;

4. The overall drainage of the foundation is not good, and the base fabric has been soaked in water for a long time.

※ Uneven color and serious color difference of artificial grass

1. The quality of artificial grass fiber is poor, the thickness is uneven, the color is unstable, and it is easy to cause different colors;

2. The installation design of the site is not good, and the filling of auxiliary materials on site is uneven, resulting in visual chromatic aberration;

3. The foundation of the site is not flat, and there are obvious traces of the seams;

4. Filling accessories are unqualified and pollute the surface layer.

※ The artificial grass interface is uneven and the gap is too large

1. The foundation of the site is not in accordance with the standard requirements and is uneven, resulting in uneven interfaces;

2. Poor jointing process of artificial grass seams causes unevenness;

3. The production process and quality problems of artificial grass cause deformation, cannot be straightened, and cause gaps;

4. Lack of professional construction experience, special construction tools and qualified skilled technicians.

※ The venue is dark and the surface is messy

1. The rubber particles used in the site are too much or the quality is not up to standard, causing large area of black pollution;

2. The artificial turf falls off in some areas, and only the filling material remains;

3. Lack of professional construction experience, special tools and qualified skilled technicians;

4. Lack of necessary maintenance after construction is completed.

※ Caking and hardening of the flooring material

1. The foundation is not flat, easy to accumulate water, so easy to harden after long-term soaking;

2. The auxiliary materials such as quartz sand used are too fine or uneven in sizes;

3. The rubber particles, quartz sand and other auxiliary materials used have too many impurities or large mud content;

4. Artificial grass is of poor quality, inelastic and prone to shedding, and lacks the necessary maintenance.

※ Artificial grass surface is uneven and the grass fiber is in uneven density

1. The foundation of the artificial turf field is uneven;

2. The auxiliary materials are unevenly filled; and part of the grass is covered by the filler during the construction process;

3. The production process of artificial grass is not professional, and there is a large error in grass height;

4. Lack of professional construction experience, special construction tools and qualified skilled technicians.

※ Ponding of the site

1. The foundation is uneven, and water is easy to accumulate in low places;

2. Lack of maintenance results in knotty floor and poor drainage;

3. Partial grass fibers are severely worn and become potholes;

4. Inappropriate filler material.
