Processing of a LLDPE/HDPE pressure vessel liner by rotomolding

Abstract: Biaxial rotational molding is a low-pressure process that uses a polymer powder to produce large and/or complex-shaped hollow thermoplastic goods using low cost molds, being very suitable for prototype production. In the present work, liner prototypes (Φ 78 × 280 mm) made of linear low density (LLDPE) and high density polyethylene (HDPE) blends were produced aiming to later use them as compressed natural gas type IV cylinders. The LLDPE/HDPE blend composition and the process parameters (temperature/time cycle,… Show more

“…This is the residue that remains once clear PET waste for mechanical recycling has been removed ( Tournier et al, 2020 ). PcW-PET was pre-treated using extrusion and micronization processes that are employed widely in plastics industries ( Awaja and Pavel, 2005 ; Barboza Neto et al, 2014 ). The reaction temperature was set at 72°C to maximize kinetic turnover.…”

“…Rotomolding is a cost-effective method for pr ducing hollow polymer parts. The process involves placing the polymer in a mold in t shape of the final liner, then rotating and heating the mold, followed by a cooling proce [157,159]. Hydrogen has small molecules, making diffusion and penetration important aspects of safety in hydrogen pressure tanks.…”

“…Liner materials must consider both safety and cost-effectiveness [147,[151][152][153][154]. Type IV polymer liners can be manufactured using injection molding and welding [150,155], blow molding [156], and rotomolding [157,158] techniques, as shown in Figure 8b-d. Injection molding and welding is a multi-stage molding process [49].…”

“…Estudiar los cambios en la temperatura de transición vítrea (Tg) de mezclas poliméricas binarias permitirá determinar la posible miscibilidad, inmiscibilidad o compatibilidad de estas. La miscibilidad completa está caracterizada por una sola Tg para todas las mezclas, para el caso de sistemas compatibles se tienen dos Tg los cuales dependerán de la composición de la mezcla y finalmente si la mezcla presenta inmiscibilidad la temperatura de transición vítrea de los componentes puros no se verá afectada por la composición [15,21,22] En la Figura 1. Termograma de DSC para los copolímeros de olefina cíclica.…”
