FRP storage tanks are divided into vertical storage tanks and horizontal storage tanks. The selection of winding material of storage tanks must be appropriate and quality priority.
The structure of the tanks’ wall includes an inner layer, a strength layer and an surface layer.
Material and resin selection:
Due to the different functions of the layers, the materials are selected differently. The inner layer contacts with the medium directly,so the selection of material is a key to control the leakage of the storage tank.
To choose vinyl resin for storing acidic medium, to choose bisphenol resin for storing alkali medium… to choose alkali-free glass fiber for water and alkali resistant, to choose medium-alkali glass fiber for acid-resistant.To strengthening the inner layer, we choose surface felt to prevent from leakaging of liquid.
Application:
FRP tanks can be used to store various medium. They are resistant to pressure, corrosion, ageing, long service life, light weight, high strength, impermeability, heat insulation, insulation, non-toxicity and smooth surface. It is widely used in coatings, pharmaceuticals, building materials, chemicals, pigments, resins, food, scientific research and other industries.

In addition to vertical storage tanks and horizontal storage tanks, there are some large-size storage tanks that need to be made on site. We call them large-scale on-site storage tanks. The vertical winding process used in large-scale storage tanks is compared with the traditional horizontal winding process. It solves the problem that the large-diameter storage tank cannot be wound as a whole, and the space required for production is small, and the maximum diameter of the storage tank can reach 25m.
