2. Underground storage tank - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underground_storage_tank

   Steel/aluminum tanks, made by manufacturers in most states and conforming to standards set by the Steel Tank Institute. Composite overwrapped, a metal tank (aluminum/steel) with filament windings like glass fiber/aramid or carbon fiber or a plastic compound around the metal cylinder for corrosion protection and to form an interstitial space.

3. Composite overwrapped pressure vessel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_overwrapped...

   COPVs can be subject to complex modes of failure. In 2016, a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket exploded on the pad due to the failure of a COPV inside the liquid oxygen tank: [10] the failure resulted from accumulation of frozen solid oxygen between the COPV's aluminum liner and composite overwrap in a void or buckle. The entrapped oxygen can either break ...

4. Carbotanium - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbotanium

   The components of carbotanium; carbon fiber and titanium, are woven together to form a strong, light material that can withstand significant amounts of heat and strain. This is because carbon fiber has the highest strength-to-density ratio of any current fiber and titanium has the highest strength-to-density ratio of any current metal.

5. Compressed-air energy storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed-air_energy_storage

   Compressed-air energy storage can also be employed on a smaller scale, such as exploited by air cars and air-driven locomotives, and can use high-strength (e.g., carbon-fiber) air-storage tanks. In order to retain the energy stored in compressed air, this tank should be thermally isolated from the environment; otherwise, the energy stored will ...

6. Carbon-fiber reinforced polymer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon-fiber_reinforced...

   Archery: carbon fiber arrows and bolts, stock (for crossbows) and riser (for vertical bows), and rail. As a filament for the 3D fused deposition modeling printing process, [45] carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (polyamide-carbon filament) is used for the production of sturdy but lightweight tools and parts due to its high strength and tear length ...

7. Carbon fibers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_fibers

   Carbon fibers or carbon fibres (alternatively CF, graphite fiber or graphite fibre) are fibers about 5 to 10 micrometers (0.00020–0.00039 in) in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms. [1] Carbon fibers have several advantages: high stiffness, high tensile strength, high strength to weight ratio, high chemical resistance, high ...

9. Fibre-reinforced plastic tanks and vessels - Wikipedia

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

   Tanks listed as suitable for outdoor service are protected from UV attack by: coloring or pigmenting and/or adding internal stabilizers which preferentially absorb or dissipate the UV energy. Shading tanks from the sun will also prevent deterioration. Tanks must be free to expand or contract, avoid excessive tension on the tank.
