Corrosion laminate system
The corrosion laminate system (CLS) comprises cleaning the produced water (PW) storage tank through debris removal, wet blasting the tank, and drying the tank. The nozzle is inserted and sealed, leaving only the fiberglass portion of the nozzle in contact with the interior of the PW storage tank. The product for sealing the PW storage tank is then applied to the entire interior surface of the tank, the product is cured, and the PW storage tank can be used for storage.
Multilayer package structure for ozone scavenging
A package arrangement comprising a structure formed by a plurality of layers including an outer layer formed of a polymer material, one or more interior layers formed of a semi-aromatic polyamide composite material, and an inner layer formed of a polymer material, and an amount of water contained within the structure, the water including an amount of ozone dissolved therein, wherein the interior layer of the structure is configured to absorb oxygen and induce the degradation of the ozone.
COMPOSITE STRUCTURES WITH EMBEDDED ELECTRICAL GRIDS
A composite structure of a cargo body and a method of making the same are disclosed. The composite structure includes at least one electrical grid embedded within fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) layers. The embedded electrical grid includes a plurality of conductive fibers and a plurality of insulating fibers integrated into a polymer matrix of the FRP layers. The embedded electrical grid may be used for power distribution, structural strengthening and stiffness, and/or puncture detection.
FORMED STRUCTURAL PANEL WITH OPEN CORE
A panel includes a first board, a second board, and an edge cap. The first board and the second board each including a core that is sandwiched between and bonded to a first skin and a second skin. The edge cap is positioned between and bonded to the first board and the second board such that a cavity is defined by the first board, the second board, and the edge cap. The cavity is configured to receive an insert and is isolated from forces transferred between the first board and the second board.
TRANSFORMER AND MANUFACTURING METHOD
A transformer comprises a tank having tank walls. The tank walls comprise composite panels having a core. The tank has a fluid-tight insert.
SEALED STORAGE TANKS AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME
Various embodiments disclosed relate to a sealed storage tank. The sealed storage tank includes a first polymeric layer. The sealed storage tank further includes a second polymeric layer continuously welded to the first polymeric layer to form the sealed storage tank. The sealed storage tank further includes an optional vent formed in the first polymeric layer or the second polymeric layer. The sealed storage tank can be configured to hold at least 13,000 liters of liquid.
Freight floor, freight container, use of a multilayer panel to produce a freight floor, and method for producing a freight floor
A freight floor having a multilayer construction and that is formed as a composite material, comprising a core layer of carbon-fiber-reinforced and/or glass-fiber-reinforced plastic and a seating layer of a metal alloy, in particular an aluminum alloy.
Air cargo container
Composite panel for air cargo containers including a fire resistant, closed cell foam core, a skin attached to at least one surface of the core formed by fire resistant fibers in a matrix resin, wherein the panel will contain an internal fire with temperatures of up to 1500° F. for a period of at least 4 hours.
Intermodal container and method of constructing same
An intermodal container includes a supporting frame having a rectangular base; a first pair of upright posts extending upwardly from the rectangular base; and a first cross-beam coupling the first pair of upright posts. A second pair of upright posts extends upwardly from the rectangular base proximate an opposite end thereof, and a second cross-beam couples the second pair of upright posts. A longitudinally extending connector beam has a first end coupled to the first cross-beam, and a second end coupled to the second cross-beam. The intermodal container further includes a plurality of panels, and each panel is made of fiber reinforced plastic and insulation foam that have been integrally molded together. The panels are coupled to the supporting frame and serve as side walls, end wall, roof, and floor of the container. A method for constructing an intermodal container is also disclosed.
CARGO CONTAINER APPARATUS INCLUDING A SANDWICH STRUCTURE AND A TRACK
A container apparatus includes a sandwich structure. In another aspect, a cargo-securing or logistics track is attached to a sandwich structure of a container apparatus which employs at least one core sheet including alternating peaks and valleys therein in addition to at least one adhesively bonded outer face sheet. Yet another aspect of a container apparatus includes a depression in a sandwich structure adapted to receive a flush mounted track or post therein. Another aspect of a container apparatus includes a ship-lap and/or bent peripheral flange at a panel-to-panel interface seam.
