Also known as geofabrics, filter cloths, support fabrics, or civil engineering fabrics, geotextiles are membranes used to stabilize soils. For that purpose, permeable fabrics made of synthetic fibers with high tensile strength, even when wet, large modulus of elasticity, high ductility, and negligible creep when under load are usually used. ... These fabrics may be woven or nonwoven. Made of such synthetics as polypropylene, the nonwoven fabrics are needle-punched for permeability to water.  2, record 1, English, - geotextile

Other functions of geotextiles include erosion control, filtration, and drainage through and along the plane of the fabric.  2, record 1, English, - geotextile

Geotextiles: son materiales permeables que pueden ser “tejidos” o “no tejidos” y se utilizan generalmente para filtrar y conducir fluidos, separar suelos de diferentes características, reforzar suelos débiles y proteger a las geomembranas de los posibles daños de piedras angulares u otros objetos.  1, record 1, Spanish, - geotextil

El nombre geotextil surge del uso exclusivo de la tecnología textil para su fabricación, y porque su empleo más importante está relacionado con el suelo (geo). Con el avance de la tecnología del plástico, se empezaron a utilizar componentes a partir de polímeros, por tal razón se creó una categoría más amplia que permitiera agrupar a todas las variantes, denominada geosintéticos.  1, record 1, Spanish, - geotextil
