I. Overview of Fiberglass Storage Tanks

Fiberglass storage tanks are a type of fiberglass product, primarily made by wrapping a new composite material around a reinforcement of glass fibers and a binder of resin, all controlled by a microcomputer. These tanks offer corrosion resistance, high strength, lightweight, and long lifespan. Thanks to their flexibility in design and strong processability, they can be tailored for various industries such as chemicals and environmental protection, gradually replacing most of the market for carbon steel and stainless steel.

2. Fiberglass Storage Tank Categories

Fiberglass storage tanks can be categorized by form as vertical tanks, horizontal tanks: by size as standard tanks and field-wound large tanks: and by pressure as pressure tanks and vacuum tanks, etc.

Section 3: Characteristics of FRP Storage Tanks

(1) Lightweight and high-strength

Glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) has a relative density between 1.5~2.0, which is only 1/4~1/5 that of carbon steel, yet its tensile strength is close, and even exceeds that of carbon steel. Its specific strength can be compared to that of high-grade alloy steel.

(2) Excellent corrosion resistance

FRP is an excellent corrosion-resistant material, with strong resistance to atmospheric conditions, water, and general concentrations of acids, alkalis, salts, as well as various oils and solvents. It has been applied in all aspects of chemical corrosion prevention.

(3) Excellent thermal properties

FRP has a low thermal conductivity, only 1/100 to 1/1000 of metal, making it an excellent insulating material.

(4) Excellent workmanship

① We can flexibly choose the molding process based on the product's shape, technical requirements, application, and quantity.

②Simple in design, allowing for one-time molding, it offers outstanding economic benefits, particularly for products with complex shapes, difficult to form, and low in quantity, highlighting its superior process advantage.
