  3. Fibre-reinforced plastic tanks and vessels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre-reinforced_plastic...

    A typical storage tank made of FRP has an inlet, an outlet, a vent, an access port, a drain, and an overflow nozzle. However, there are other features that can be included in the tank. Ladders on the outside allow for easy access to the roof for loading. The vessel must be designed to withstand the load of someone standing on these ladders, and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_low-density...

    Linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) granules. Linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) is a substantially linear polymer (polyethylene), with significant numbers of short branches, commonly made by copolymerization of ethylene with longer-chain olefins.

  9. Burette - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burette

    A volumetric burette can be made of glass or plastic, and is a straight tube with a graduation scale. At the tip of burette, there are a stopcock and valve to control the flow of the chemical solution. The barrel of the stopcock can be made of glass or the plastic PTFE. Stopcocks with glass barrels need to be lubricated with vaseline or a ...
