Fiberglass tank

Fiberglass storage tank is a type of fiberglass product, which is mainly made of a new composite material using fiberglass as the reinforcing agent and resin as the adhesive through microcomputer controlled machine winding.

Classification
Fiberglass storage tanks can be divided into vertical tanks, horizontal tanks, fiberglass tanks, chemical tanks, anti-corrosion tanks, hydrochloric acid tanks, sulfuric acid tanks, food tanks, fermentation tanks, transportation tanks, storage tanks, glue tanks, chemical tanks, pressure tanks, soy sauce tanks, nitric acid tanks, etc.

Product Composition
According to the medium used for storage or transportation, epoxy furan resin, modified or polyester resin, and phenolic resin are selected as binders, consisting of a high resin content corrosion-resistant inner lining layer, anti-seepage layer, fiber winding reinforcement layer, and outer protective layer.

Characteristic
(1) Lightweight and high-strength
The relative density ranges from 1.5 to 2.0, which is only 1/4 to 1/5 of carbon steel, but the tensile strength is close to or even higher than that of carbon steel, and the specific strength can be compared with high-grade alloy steel. Therefore, it has excellent results in aviation, rockets, spacecraft, high-pressure vessels, and other products that require weight reduction applications. The tensile, bending, and compressive strength of certain epoxy FRP can all reach above 400Mpa.
(2) Good corrosion resistance
FRP is a good corrosion-resistant material that has strong resistance to atmospheric, water, and general concentrations of acids, alkalis, salts, as well as various oils and solvents. It has been applied in various aspects of chemical anti-corrosion and is replacing carbon steel, stainless steel, wood, non-ferrous metals, etc.
(3) Good electrical performance
It is an excellent insulation material used to manufacture insulators. It can still protect good dielectric properties at high frequencies. Microwave has good transmittance and has been widely used in radar radomes.
(4) Good thermal performance
FRP has a low thermal conductivity, ranging from 1.25 to 1.67 kJ/(m • h • K) at room temperature, only 1/100 to 1/1000 of metal, making it an excellent insulation material. Under instantaneous ultra-high temperature conditions, it is an ideal thermal protection and ablation resistant material that can protect spacecraft from high-speed airflow erosion above 2000 ℃.
(5) Good designability
① Various structural products can be flexibly designed according to needs to meet usage requirements, which can make the product have good overall integrity.
② Materials can be fully selected to meet the performance of the product, such as designing products that are corrosion-resistant, resistant to instantaneous high temperatures, have particularly high strength in a certain direction, have good dielectric properties, and so on.
(6) Excellent craftsmanship
① The molding process can be flexibly selected based on the shape, technical requirements, purpose, and quantity of the product.
② The process is simple and can be formed in one go, with outstanding economic benefits, especially for products with complex shapes and difficult to form in small quantities, highlighting its technological superiority.
