Lined UHMWPE Tanks
The steel-lined ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) storage tank
The steel-lined ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) storage tank combines the excellent properties of UHMWPE with the structural stability of traditional storage tanks. This storage tank is widely used in industries such as petrochemicals, fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, metallurgy, and environmental protection, for storing and transporting highly corrosive and aggressive media. It demonstrates exceptional reliability and durability, especially in harsh environments.Main Features:Excellent Corrosion Resistance: UHMWPE has a highly stable molecular structure, providing excellent resistance to a wide range of corrosive media such as acids, alkalis, salts, and oxidizing agents. Its corrosion resistance is far superior to traditional steel-lined storage tank materials.Extremely High Wear Resistance: UHMWPE is 4-7 times more wear-resistant than steel and far exceeds other plastic materials. It is especially suitable for storing liquids or slurry containing particles, significantly extending the service life of the storage tank.High Impact Resistance: UHMWPE has exceptional impact strength, 6 times that of nylon and 10 times that of high-density polyethylene. It can withstand external mechanical impacts or fluctuations in internal and external pressures without cracking.High Temperature Resistance: UHMWPE has good high-temperature resistance, maintaining stable performance in working environments between 60°C and 80°C, making it suitable for various storage requirements in different operating conditions.Self-lubrication: UHMWPE's self-lubricating properties reduce wear and adhesion during use, lowering maintenance costs and operational expenses.Anti-aging Properties: The anti-aging properties of UHMWPE are superior, allowing it to maintain performance for a long time. It significantly extends the service life of the storage tank, especially in outdoor or underground applications.Low Temperature Performance: UHMWPE maintains excellent mechanical properties even at low temperatures, withstanding temperatures as low as -40°C, making it suitable for storage applications in cold regions.Environmental and Safety Friendly: UHMWPE is non-toxic, odorless, and pollution-free, meeting national standards for food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade applications, ensuring safety and reliability.Reduced Scaling and Maintenance Costs: The inner and outer surfaces of the tank are smooth with excellent non-stick and self-cleaning properties, making it difficult for scaling substances to adhere. This greatly reduces the frequency and cost of tank cleaning and maintenance.Lightweight and Easy Installation: UHMWPE storage tanks are much lighter than traditional steel tanks, making them easier to handle, install, and transport, reducing installation costs.Technical Specifications:Tensile Strength: ≥25MPaElongation at Break: ≥280%Impact Strength: ≥130 KJ/m²Wear Resistance: 4-7 times that of steelCorrosion Resistance: Resistant to strong acids, alkalis, salts, and various organic solventsWorking Temperature: Stable in the range of -40°C to 80°CApplications:Petrochemical Industry: For storing corrosive media such as acids, alkalis, oils, and chemical solvents.Mining and Metallurgy: For storing tailings, acidic solutions, and chemicals.Food and Pharmaceutical Industries: For storing food-grade or pharmaceutical liquids, meeting safety standards.Environmental Protection: For storing wastewater, chemical waste, and in waste treatment processes.Other Corrosive Media Storage: Suitable for applications in fertilizer, power, and paper industries.The steel-lined ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene storage tank, with its excellent corrosion resistance, wear resistance, impact resistance, and high/low-temperature performance, is the ideal choice for many industries, providing a long-lasting, safe, and reliable storage solution.
