Glass-fiber Lateral Storage Tank

Fiberglass storage tanks are a type of fiberglass product, primarily composed of glass fibers as the reinforcing material and resin as the binder, manufactured through computer-controlled winding machines. These tanks offer corrosion resistance, high strength, lightweight, and long service life. Due to their flexible designability and strong processability, they can be adapted for various industries such as chemicals, environmental protection, and food processing, gradually replacing most of the market share of carbon steel and stainless steel.

Fiberglass storage tanks include vertical tanks, horizontal tanks, fiberglass drums, chemical storage tanks, anti-corrosion tanks, hydrochloric acid tanks, sulfuric acid tanks, food tanks, fermentation tanks, transport storage tanks, storage drums, adhesive tanks, chemical drums, pressure tanks, soy sauce tanks, nitric acid tanks, and more.

Select epoxy furan resin, modified or polyester resin, or phenolic resin as the binder, composed of a corrosion-resistant lining with high resin content, a permeation prevention layer, a fiber-wrapped reinforcing layer, and an exterior protective layer, depending on the medium used (storage or transportation).

Fiberglass products, known for their excellent corrosion resistance, serve as transmission media in many industries. However, what enables them to possess their unique characteristics? The structure of fiberglass products with fiber winding is divided into three parts: the inner lining layer, the structural layer, and the outer protective layer. The inner lining layer contains a high resin content, usually over 70%, with the inner surface's rich resin layer containing approximately 95%. By selecting the resin used in the inner lining, the corrosion resistance of the fiberglass products during liquid transportation can vary, meeting different operational requirements; for applications requiring external corrosion protection, simply carefully selecting the resin in the outer protective layer can achieve different external corrosion protection purposes.

Fiberglass products can be coated with different corrosion-resistant resins depending on the specific environment, including: intermediate benzene unsaturated polyester resin, vinyl resin, bisphenol A resin, epoxy resin, and furan resin. For acidic environments, choose bisphenol A resin and furan resin; for alkaline environments, select vinyl resin, epoxy resin, or furan resin; for solvent-based environments, use furan resins. When corrosion by acids, salts, and solvents is not severe, less expensive intermediate benzene resin can be used. By selecting different resins for the inner lining, fiberglass products can be widely applied in acidic, alkaline, saline, and solvent environments, demonstrating excellent corrosion resistance.
