What is FRP water tank?

FRP Water Tank, FRP Water Storage Tank

Description of FRP water tank

FRP water tank, full name Fiber Reinforced Plastic or Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic Water Tank, is a kind of water tank that uses glass fiber and thermosetting resin (such as unsaturated polyester resin) as the main raw materials and is carefully crafted through a special process. Modern water storage equipment. With its excellent performance characteristics, this kind of water tank is widely used in many fields such as high-rise buildings, residential areas, industrial and mining enterprises, fire protection systems, hotels and restaurants, and has become the preferred solution for high-quality water storage facilities.What is SMC Panel Tank (2)

FRP water tanks have significant advantages of high strength and lightweight. Thanks to the reinforcement of glass fiber, its structure is lightweight but has excellent strength. It can withstand various internal and external pressures, including wind pressure, snow load and earthquake forces, showing excellent structural stability.

In terms of corrosion resistance, FRP water tanks also perform well. It has excellent corrosion resistance to water and most other chemical media, and can effectively resist the erosion of various chemical substances, so it is very suitable for storing liquids of different properties, including drinking water, fire water, industrial water, etc.

The FRP water tank also has excellent sealing performance. It uses advanced sealing materials and sophisticated assembly technology to ensure that there will be no leakage during use of the water tank, thus ensuring the safety and reliability of water storage.

In addition, the ease of assembly and flexibility of FRP water tanks is also a highlight. It can be flexibly assembled on-site into water tanks of different sizes and capacities according to the actual needs of users, which is not only convenient for transportation and installation, but also adaptable to various places with limited space.

In terms of service life and maintenance costs, FRP water tanks also perform well. Due to the use of high-quality FRP material, which has good weather resistance and anti-aging properties, it has a long service life and relatively low maintenance costs, saving users a lot of maintenance costs.

In terms of health and safety, FRP water tanks are also trustworthy. The resin material it uses complies with national food-grade standards, ensuring that the water is clean, hygienic, non-toxic and harmless, and fully complies with national requirements for drinking water quality, allowing users to use it with peace of mind.

Finally, FRP water tanks also have excellent thermal insulation properties. According to the user’s needs, a water tank with an insulation layer can be designed to effectively maintain water temperature, reduce energy consumption, and achieve energy conservation and environmental protection.

In summary, FRP water tanks have become an ideal choice for modern water storage equipment due to their high strength, lightweight, corrosion resistance, no leakage, easy assembly, long life, hygienic safety and excellent thermal insulation performance, and are widely used in various applications. Where high-quality water storage facilities are required.

Raw material composition of FRP panels

What Do You Know About GRP Panel Tank1
What Do You Know About GRP Panel Tank1

Raw material composition of FRP panels are mainly made of Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic (GRP), which is a kind of composite material. Specific to its ingredients, it contains the following key materials:

  1. Unsaturated resin:As a matrix material, it is responsible for binding other components together and providing the waterproof performance of the water tank. The performance of the resin should meet the requirements of GB/T 8237, and for water tanks that store drinking water, the resin must also meet the hygienic standards of GB13115.
  2. Alkali-free glass fiber yarn:Increases the strength and stiffness of the water tank board, which is a key component that determines the pressure resistance and durability of the water tank. High-quality water tanks will use alkali-free fiber yarn, and its performance must comply with the regulations of GB/T18370.
  3. Fillers: such as calcium powder, titanium dioxide, etc., used to adjust the properties of the resin, such as reducing costs, improving processing performance or improving certain physical properties.
  4. Auxiliary materials: including cross-linking agents, initiators, etc., which are used in the production process of SMC (Sheet Molding Compound) sheets to help solidify and enhance the performance of the sheets. They must comply with the regulations of GB9685 to ensure that they will not affect the water quality. create pollution.

SMC sheets are formed by mixing the above raw materials and pressing them through a mold under high temperature and high pressure conditions. This production method allows each water tank panel to have uniform size, thickness and high performance. The boards are connected through sealing materials, and combined with metal structural parts and piping systems, they are assembled into a complete fiberglass water tank, which is suitable for various water storage needs, from drinking water to fire water, industrial water, etc.

Advantage of  FRP Water Tank, FRP Water Storage Tank

Fiberglass Water Tank Manufacturer

Fiberglass water tank panels have many advantages due to their unique materials and manufacturing processes, including but not limited to the following:

FRP Water Tank, FRP Water Storage Tank

  1. Light weight:

Compared with traditional concrete or metal water tanks, the density of fiberglass water tank panels is low, which greatly reduces the overall weight of the water tank, facilitates installation and transportation, and reduces the requirements for support structures.

  1. Strong corrosion resistance:

FRP material has good chemical stability to water and other media, and can resist corrosion from most acids, alkalis, salts and atmospheric environments, extending the service life of the water tank, and is especially suitable for containing corrosive components. of industrial water storage.

  1. No leakage:

Using high-quality resin and precise molding technology, the fiberglass water tank plates are tightly connected, which can effectively prevent moisture penetration and ensure the sealing performance of the water tank.

  1. Water quality assurance:

The lining layer made of food-grade resin ensures that the water quality is clean, hygienic, non-toxic and harmless. It is suitable for the storage of drinking water and will not cause secondary pollution.

  1. Insulation performance:

FRP materials have certain insulation properties, especially in specially treated water tank plates, which can effectively reduce heat exchange and maintain water temperature. It is suitable for scenarios that require temperature control of hot water or specific storage conditions.

  1. Beautiful appearance:

Different colors and shapes can be customized according to needs, and the surface is smooth and flat, improving the aesthetics of the installation environment.

  1. Easy installation: The prefabricated panels can be quickly assembled on site through standardized interfaces, which greatly simplifies the installation process and shortens the construction period.
  1. Easy maintenance:

 FRP water tank panels are relatively simple to clean and maintain, reducing the cost and workload of long-term maintenance.

  1. Strong adaptability:

It is not limited by building space and can be flexibly designed and installed in various complex environments to meet the needs of different users.

  1. Long service life:

Based on the above advantages, the fiberglass water tank is durable as a whole. Under normal use, its service life can reach several decades, and it has a high cost performance.

Difference between FRP and GRP water tanks?

FRP is the abbreviation of Fiberglass Reinforced Plastics

FRP is mainly composed by fiberglass and resin which will directly determine the quality of FRP Water Tank. It is also called “SMC storage water tank”, It is a good way to store water, It is installed by SMC panels, bolts & nuts, Seal components, steel instruction parts, suitable pipes.

GRP is the abbreviation of Glass fiber Reinforced Plastics

It is same material with FRP, only the called name is different,GRP it’s generally used over in Europe and Asia and stands for glass-reinforced plastic.
