What are the characteristics of hydrochloric acid storage tanks

A hydrochloric acid storage tank is a type of tank specifically designed to hold highly corrosive substances such as hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid. It can be made of plastic or fiberglass. Hydrochloric acid storage tanks made of plastic can be sold in small barrels, while those made of fiberglass are generally produced and can be stored for a long time.

Characteristics of hydrochloric acid storage tank:

1. Hydrochloric acid storage tanks have strong corrosion resistance: they have good resistance to atmospheric, high concentration acids, alkalis, salts, as well as various oils and solvents. It has been applied to various aspects of chemical anti-corrosion and is replacing carbon steel, stainless steel, wood, non-ferrous metals, etc.

2. Hydrochloric acid storage tanks are lightweight and have high strength: their relative density is between 1.5 and 2.0, only 1/4 to 1/5 of carbon steel, but their tensile strength is close to or even exceeds that of carbon steel, while their specific strength can be compared to good alloy steel. Therefore, hydrochloric acid storage tanks are effective in aviation, rockets, spacecraft, high-pressure vessels, and other applications that require weight reduction. The tensile, bending, and compressive strength of some epoxy FRP can reach over 400Mpa.

3. The design flexibility of hydrochloric acid storage tanks: ① Hydrochloric acid storage tanks can be flexibly designed with various structural products according to needs to meet usage requirements, which can make the products have good integrity. ② The hydrochloric acid storage tank can fully select materials to meet the performance of the product, such as designing corrosion-resistant, high-temperature resistant, high-strength products in a certain direction, and particularly good dielectric properties.

4. The hydrochloric acid storage tank has excellent processability: ① The molding process can be flexibly selected according to the shape, technical requirements, purpose, and quantity of the product. ② The hydrochloric acid storage tank process is simple and can be formed in one go, with outstanding economic effects, especially for products with complex shapes and small quantities that are difficult to form, highlighting its technological superiority. Hydrochloric acid storage tanks have a long service life and can generally be used for more than 30 years.
