Selection of Coatings for Three Important Parts in Anti corrosion Storage Tanks
2026-07-08 10:54For anti-corrosion storage tanks, the selection of anti-corrosion coatings is also an important task, as it can affect the quality and effectiveness of the tank's anti-corrosion, so we cannot be careless. Moreover, if the correct anti-corrosion coating is chosen, it is also advantageous for the use of anti-corrosion storage tanks.
Part 1: Inner surface of anti-corrosion storage tank
Previously, carbon based electrostatic conductive coatings were commonly used, but during use, it was found that they would still rust and corrode over time. So, its anti-corrosion effect is not very good, especially after long-term use. Now, non carbon based static conductive anti-corrosion coatings are used because they can solve this problem and have very good anti-corrosion effects.
Part 2: External surface of anti-corrosion storage tank
Generally, external anti-corrosion coatings such as chlorinated rubber coatings and ordinary polyurethane coatings are used. However, in high-temperature environments, problems may arise and some unsafe factors may arise. Therefore, considering various factors comprehensively, it is more appropriate to use thermal insulation reflective coatings, which can play a role in insulation and cooling, thus avoiding the above problems.
Part 3: Outer surface of the bottom plate of the anti-corrosion storage tank
Usually, asphalt or epoxy coal tar coatings are used. However, from the perspective of application, there is still a lack of effectiveness. Therefore, for comprehensive comparison, it is recommended to use water-based lithium silicate zinc rich coating. This type of coating has the advantages of easy construction and good environmental friendliness, so in some aspects, it has a very good anti-corrosion effect.
The above three parts are very important in the storage tank, so the selection of anti-corrosion coatings cannot be wrong, so as not to affect the application of anti-corrosion storage tanks. Moreover, providing detailed explanations and guidance on them is also beneficial for us to make the right choices, and further, it can achieve good anti-corrosion effects, making the storage tank last for a long time.
