A composite pressure vessel that includes a monolayer liner and a reinforcing structure arranged on top of the liner. The liner is made by injection moulding and includes at least two shells weldable together. Each shell is made of a polymer composition including at least 45% by weight of an aromatic polyamide relative to the total weight of the polymer composition, and at least 10% by weight of an aliphatic polyamide relative to the total weight of the polymer composition.

Disclosed is a pressure vessel including an upper liner portion including a top insertion-injection molded and coupled to a peripheral part of a boss portion in which a through hole extends in a vertical direction, extending downward cylindrically from the top to form a first accommodation space accommodating a fluid and having an open lower center, and including a first shape-matching portion in which a first overlapped-coupled surface is formed on a bottom end edge to be perpendicular to a laser emission direction and extends in a vertical direction along a circumferential direction and a lower liner portion having a top end edge coupled to the bottom end edge of the upper liner portion.

A method of manufacturing a high-pressure fluid vessel includes forming a first portion of a high-pressure fluid vessel with a molding process. The high-pressure fluid vessel includes a stack of capsules. Each capsule includes a first domed end, a second domed end, and a semicylindrical portion extending between and connecting the first domed end to the second domed end. The method further includes forming a second portion of a high-pressure fluid vessel with the molding process. The second portion of the high-pressure fluid vessel is positioned adjacent to the first portion of the high-pressure fluid vessel. The second portion of the high-pressure fluid vessel is welded to the first portion of the high-pressure fluid vessel.

A manufacturing method for a pressure tank includes disposing a preform, in which a fiber layer is formed on an outer surface of a liner that forms an internal space of a pressure tank, within a mold, and rotating the preform in a circumferential direction within the mold with a central axis of the preform as a rotation center while resin is injected toward the preform disposed within the mold from a gate.

A method for forming a reservoir made of a composite material includes a tubular element, two end fittings, each inserted into one end of the tubular element, and a circumferential layer that envelops the tubular element and the end fittings. The circumferential layer is made of resin-impregnated wound fibers. At least one segment of each end fitting has an outwardly tapering shape and the wall has a taper at each end, and thus at each end the wall is pressed against the segment surface having a tapering shape. The tubular element includes a plastic tube surrounded by a longitudinal layer essentially made of parallel fibers in a resin matrix, the parallel fibers being oriented along the longitudinal axis of the plastic tube. The circumferential layer is essentially made of fibers wound around the circumference of the tubular element and end fittings and parallel to each other.

A tank comprises: a liner having a cylindrical trunk portion and a hemispherical dome portion provided at both ends of the trunk portion in a central axis direction; a fiber-reinforced resin layer formed on an outer peripheral surface of the liner; and a metallic reinforcement member formed integrally with the liner. The reinforcement member is arranged in the dome portion at least at a shoulder portion near a boundary between the dome portion and the trunk portion and is not arranged at least at part of the trunk portion.

A sectional inner liner of a pressure vessel comprising the sectional inner liner and an outer layer disposed around the sectional inner liner, the sectional inner liner comprising: at least two inner liner sections, wherein each inner liner section comprises an internal network structure; and at least two cap sections, wherein, the at least two cap sections and at least two inner liner sections are configured to assemble into a sectional inner liner.

A manufacturing method of a high-pressure tank includes a step of forming a first reinforcing body involving cooling a first resin-impregnated fiber bundle fed from a fiber bundle feeding device and having a first temperature to a second temperature lower than the first temperature and winding the cooled first resin-impregnated fiber bundle around a mandrel or a liner. The first resin-impregnated fiber bundle includes fine particles that contain an acrylic resin or a butadiene resin as a main component. A high-pressure tank including the liner that houses gas and the first reinforcing body that covers an outer surface of the liner is manufactured.

In the vicinity of an opening end of a first liner constituent member and a second liner constituent member made of a resin material, a flange portion is formed. After end surfaces of the opening end are abutted and joined to each other, the flange portion is removed in such a way that a part of a bottom portion remains. The remaining amount of protrusion is set such that the joint strength of a joint portion is not less than the tensile strength of the resin material or not less than the cohesion failure strength of the joint portion.

The use of a sealing layer of a composition including at least one polyamide for preparing a multicore structure intended for the transport, distribution or storage of hydrogen, in particular for the distribution or storage of hydrogen, especially for the storage of hydrogen, the sealing layer satisfying a test for contaminants present in the hydrogen and extracted from the sealing layer after contact of the hydrogen with same, the test been carried out as defined in the standard CSA/ANSI CHMC 2: 19, the total proportion of said contaminants extracted in the hydrogen being less than or equal to 3% by weight, in particular less than 2% by weight of the sum of the constituents of the composition.
