FRP linings in above-ground storage tanks

Article Abstract:

The use of thick-film, fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) lining has emerged as a less expensive alternative to the repair of above-ground metal tank bottoms. The process, which involves the application of a primer, putty and catalyzed resin using a glass mat as well as a sealcoat, is also a faster alternative than replacing the entire tank bottom. The proper application of FRP linings can prevent leakages due to internal corrosion for as long as 10 to 20 years.
