Glass Reinforced Plastic Softens Water Tanks

Material benefits editor

(1) fiberglass tank is light and strong

The relative density is between 1.5 and 2.0, only 1/4 to 1/5 of carbon steel, but the tensile strength is close to or even higher than carbon steel, and the specific strength can be compared with advanced alloy steel.Therefore, it is useful in aviation, rockets, space vehicles, high pressure containers and other products that need to reduce weight.The tensile, bending and compression strength of some epoxy FRP can reach more than 400Mpa.Note: specific intensity is intensity divided by density.

(2) good corrosion resistance of FRP tank

FRP is a good corrosion resistant material, which has good resistance to atmosphere, water, acid, alkali, salt and many kinds of oil and solvent.Has been applied to various aspects of chemical corrosion protection, is replacing carbon steel, stainless steel, wood, nonferrous metals and so on.

(3) good electrical performance of FRP tank

It is an excellent insulating material used to make insulators.Good dielectric properties can be protected at high frequencies.Microwave transmittance is good, has been widely used in radar radome.

(4) the thermal performance of FRP tank [1] is good

Low thermal conductivity of FRP, 1.25~1.67kJ/(m·h·K) at room temperature, 1/100~1/1000 of the metal, is an excellent thermal insulation material.In the case of instantaneous ultra-high temperature, it is an ideal material for thermal protection and ablative resistance, and can protect the spacecraft to withstand the erosion of high-speed airflow above 2000℃.

In recent years, many developed and developing countries around the world have set up softening water treatment equipment companies, and can produce and sell automatic softening water treatment equipment.Our country also introduced the American product to put into use, its supporting key component glass steel treatment tank is the domestic research and production.The raw materials and formulations for the glass and steel treatment tank with a diameter range of 150-1800mm and a length of 1200-2600mmo that have been put into use on the market, and the manufacturing equipment are fully mature.Its main technical indicators are working pressure of no more than 0.6mpa, test pressure of 0.8mpa and service life of more than 15a. It will surely play an important role in China's water-saving projects.
