Hydrogen Fuel Storage Tanks in Automobiles
05 October 2023
At present, the development of hydrogen powered vehicles is bound to lead to the rapid development of high-pressure hydrogen storage cylinders for high-speed vehicles. The development of hydrogen storage cylinders has a history of more than 50 years, indicating that this product has always been highly concerned. The successful development from steel cylinders to composite cylinders has achieved a huge transformation towards a reasonable product structure and light weight, and the production technology of hydrogen storage cylinders is becoming increasingly mature. At present, many domestic gas cylinder manufacturers have started to develop or have successfully developed aluminum fully wound hydrogen gas cylinders, striving to accelerate the development of clean energy products and seize the market competition high ground. Carbon fiber wrapped aluminum alloy inner liner gas cylinders not only have the characteristics of low density, good processability, excellent sealing performance, good ductility, and crack resistance enhancement of aluminum alloy materials, but also have the advantages of carbon fiber composite materials such as light weight, high specific strength, high specific modulus, good safety, and strong designability, making the composite gas cylinder achieve a perfect combination of excellent performance such as high pressure bearing capacity, high fatigue life, light weight, and corrosion resistance. Therefore, researching and developing the inner liner of aluminum gas cylinders for vehicles is very necessary and has good market prospects.
In short, the aluminum alloy inner liner fiber fully wound composite gas cylinder is a high-pressure vessel product with high technological content that permeates multiple disciplines and production processes. The aluminum cylinder liner production line of this project is imported from the United States and is formed through multiple processes such as reverse extrusion, stretching, strong spinning, and spinning closure using advanced production equipment in the United States. The processing technology and capability are leading in China. With the continuous understanding of the product and increasing demand from users, the aluminum alloy liner fiber fully wrapped composite cylinder will inevitably become a necessary choice for hydrogen fuel storage tanks in automobiles.
