Steel wrapped pressure vessel
A light weight pressure vessel (10) has been proposed. The vessel (10) is made of a steel, aluminum or non-metal liner (11) which is reinforced with high strength steel wires (21) of 2000-7000 MPa strength. The matrix is filled with a polymer epoxy resin (45). A top layer of fabric tape (33) soaked...

Zusammenfassung: | A light weight pressure vessel (10) has been proposed. The vessel (10) is made of a steel, aluminum or non-metal liner (11) which is reinforced with high strength steel wires (21) of 2000-7000 MPa strength. The matrix is filled with a polymer epoxy resin (45). A top layer of fabric tape (33) soaked in resin (45) has been used to embed the finish end (24) of the wire (21) and to provide a protective layer over the wire reinforced area. The mesh or net fabric wrap tape (33) has periodic openings to allow penetration of polymer epoxy resin (45). A top coat of a UV resistant polyurethane paint (47) has been applied. |
