Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The article presents the results of a study of the physical and mechanical properties of a biopolymer gravel composite made on the basis of polylactide (PLA) and natural gravel. The developed composite is intended for filtration elements of hydrogeological wells. The biopolymer-gravel composite was tested for compressive strength. The results showed that the biopolymer gravel composite is characterized by sufficient mechanical strength and resistance to the effects of the aquatic environment, which confirms the feasibility of its use as an environmentally safe material for filtration elements of hydrogeological wells. The obtained data can be used for further optimization of the composition of the composite material and the development of new biopolymer block gravel filters of hydrogeological wells.
