Structural Tank: The laminate comprising the structural tank (bottom, shell, top head) shall consist of acorrosion-resistant barrier comprised of an inner surface, interior layer, and a structural layer.

Inner Surface: The inner surface exposed to the chemical environment shall consist of a resin rich layer 0.010to 0.020 in. thick, reinforced with a suitable chemical-resistant glass fiber surface mat or with an organic fibersurface mat.

Interior Layer: The inner surface layer exposed to the corrosive environment shall be followed with a layercomposed of resin, reinforced only with non-continuous glass-fiber strands applied in a minimum of two pliesof chopped-strand mat. As an alternative, a minimum of two pass of chopped roving of minimum length of 0.5in. to a maximum length of 2.0 in. shall be applied uniformly. Each ply of mat or pass of chopped roving shallbe well-rolled prior to the application of additional reinforcement. The combined thickness of the inner surfaceand interior layer shall not be less than 0.10 in.

Glass content of the inner liner and the interior layer combined shall be 27 +/- 5% by weight.

The degree of cure of the laminate shall be such as to exhibit a Barcol hardness on the inner surface of at least90% of the resin manufacturers minimum specified hardness for the cured resin.

Structural Layer:

Filament Wound: Subsequent reinforcement shall be continuous-strand roving. The thickness of the filament-wound portion of the tank shell may be varied with tank height (tapered-wall construction). If additionallongitudinal strength is required, the use of other reinforcement such as woven fabric, chopped-strand mat, orchopped strands, may be interspersed in the winding to provide additional strength. Glass content of thisfilament-wound structural layer shall be 50 to 80% by weight.

Contact-Molded Structural layer in Top and Bottom Heads: Subsequent reinforcement shall be comprised of1.5 oz/ft chopped-strand mat or equivalent weight of chopped roving, or shall be comprised of chopped-strandmat or chopped roving and such additional number of alternating plies of 24 oz/yd woven roving 18 oz/yd non-woven biaxial fabric to a thickness as required to meet the physical properties that are used for the design.Each successive ply or pass of reinforcement shall be well-rolled prior to the application of additionalreinforcement. Where woven roving is used, chopped-strand glass reinforcement shall be used as alternatingand final layers. All woven roving and surfacing mat shall be overlapped. Laps in subsequent layers shall be

staggered at least 2.25 in. from laps in the preceding layer.

When the outer surface of this structural layer is to be subject to spillage or a corrosive environment, a resin-rich layer, shall be applied over the final layer of reinforcement.


11/45

Fittings and Accessories: The surfaces of fittings, tank accessories, and the laminates required for theirinstallation that are exposed to the corrosive media shall be constructed in accordance with this specificationexcept for those fitting surfaces which are made by manufacturing processes other than contact molding.

The cut edges of all laminates exposed to the chemical environment shall be sealed with a laminate. Whereshape, thickness, or other restrictions preclude covering the edges with laminate, such cut edges and any

machined flange faces shall be at least coated with resin. In either case, the resin used shall be the same used inthe equipment laminate.

Nozzle and Manway Installation: Flanged nozzles may be installed with the pipe stub flush inside the tankshell or projecting inside the tank.

Nozzle Projection: The installed nozzle shall maintain a clearance of 3 in. between the back of the flange andthe exterior of the cutout opening reinforcement. In addition, this clearance shall not be less than the sheardistance required for proper installation of the nozzle.

Cutout Reinforcement Laminate: When a vessel shell or head is cut in an area bearing hydrostatic pressure,the cutout shall be reinforced on a circular area concentric with the cutout.

Cutout Reinforcement Diameter: The outer diameter of the cutout reinforcing laminate, shall not be less thantwo times the nominal nozzle diameter. For nozzles less than 6 in. in diameter, the minimum cutoutreinforcement diameter shall be the nominal nozzle size plus 6 in.

Cutout Reinforcement Thickness: The thickness of the cutout reinforcement laminate for nozzles installed incylindrical shells or dished heads shall be determined by nozzle and tank size.

When reinforcing materials are cut to facilitate placement around and installed nozzle, joints in successivereinforcing layers should be staggered to avoid overlapping and (on cylindrical shell installation) shall not beplaced so they are parallel the axis of the tank. The intent of this requirement is to avoid orienting joints inreinforcing layers perpendicular to the maximum load-bearing direction.

Nozzle Installation Laminates: The all interior installation laminate placement is used only when the nozzlebeing installed has an integral conical gusset preventing application of an exterior laminate.

Installation Laminate Thickness: The inside and outside installation thicknesses combined shall be at least asthick as the nozzle neck.

Inside Installation Laminate Construction: The inside installation laminate shall be constructed using only


12/45

11. DIMENSIONS AND TOLERANCES

Standard tank diameters are based on internal measurements with the tank in the vertical position.

Tolerance on the inside diameter, including out-of-roundness, shall be +/- 1%.

Shell taper shall be additive to the figure used for the tank diameter. Shell taper shall not exceed 1/2 degree perside.

Tolerance on overall tank height shall be 1/2%, but shall not exceed +/- 1/2 in.

Nozzle flange faces shall be perpendicular to the axis of the pipe and shall be flat within +/- 1/32 in. through 18in. nozzle size and 1/16 in. for large nozzle sizes.

The standard orientation of flanges shall provide bolt holes straddling the normal centerlines of the tank. Bolt

holes of flanges located on the tank top or bottom, shall straddle the principal centerline of the vessel or linesparallel to it.

12. WORKMANSHIP, FINISH and APPEARANCE

The minimum acceptable for workmanship and finish of the finished laminate shall conform to the requirementsspecified in Section 9 of Specification C 582.

13. REQUIRMENTS

Degree of Cure: Degree of cure of the laminate shall be found by determining the Barcol hardness.

A useful technique to check the cure of a non-molded surface of a polyester resin is as follows: Rub a fewdrops of acetone on the laminate surface until it evaporates. If the surface becomes softened or tacky, it isindication of under cure.

The use of organic reinforcing materials may reduce the Barcol readings without necessarily indicating undercure.

Barcol hardness values may vary upon temperature.

OC SURFACING VEILSPRODUCT INFORMATION

PRODUCT FAMILY INTRODUCTION

OC Surfacing Veils

are designed to give surface

enhancement to composite

laminates.They are designed to

add reinforcement at the surface

of a laminate and provide a

smooth, resin-rich, durable

surface.The surface layer is an

aesthetic enhancement and a corrosion resistant barrier

for the finished part.The wide range of products means

that the user may select one that satisfies both process

and end-use performance requirements.

VEIL TYPES

OC Surfacing Veils are available in two types, Dry Process

C Veils and Wet Laid ECR Veils. Each is manufactured

through a process that is suitable for many composite

processes.

OWENS CORNING C VEILS

OC C Veils provide corrosion resistance and surfaceenhancements in many composite manufacturing

processes. OC C Veils contain C Glass, which is a

chemically resistant glass that withstands acid and alkaline

OWENS CORNING ECR VEILS

OC ECR Veils are uniform and can be used in a variety

of composite manufacturing processes. OC ECR Veils

are made with Advantex glass fiber reinforcements, which

combine the electrical and mechanical properties of

E Glass with the corrosion resistance of ECR glass.

BINDERS

OC Surfacing Veils are available with either high solubility

or low solubility binders. Low solubility binders provide

superior wet strength and resist fiber washing, yet maintain

rapid wet-out. High solubility binders dissolve in styrene

based resin systems and offer very fast wet-out and

conformability to complex part curvatures as the binder

is dissolved.All binders are compatible with polyester,

vinylester and epoxy resins.

GLOBAL QUALITY

Owens Corning continues to meet ongoing customer

demands for higher productivity, higher value products

and excellent support. OC Surfacing Veils are high-quality

products produced with a multi-regional process that helpsto ensure consistent products in many regions of the

world while meeting performance and cost requirements.

OC SURFACING VEIL PRODUCT SELECTIONThickness

OC Surfacing Veils are generally selected first based

on thickness in the composite part.The standard forcorrosion resistance and surface enhancement is 10 mil

(0.5 mm). Thicker veils are selected for enhanced surface

print blocking or added corrosion protection through a

thicker resin-rich surface layer. Generally the thinnest

layer that gives sufficient surface properties is chosen.

For closed molding and infusion process with higher glass

content in the laminate, thicker veils are often required

to mask the substrate reinforcements.

Solubility and Binder Selection

The selection of the appropriate binder is based on the

composite process and matrix resin chemistry. For open

Wet Process Advantex vs. Dry Process "C-Veil"

OC C-Veils are a standard for the corrosion and open

molding industries. The familiarity in handling these

combined with a fiber architecture that allows easy wet-

out, make these preferred products of many molders.The

long fibers in OC C Veils can give more conformability in

complex parts.Advantex OC ECR Veils are a newer

product with advantages in some applications.The Wet

Process used to produce these OC ECR Veils makes a

product with very high small-area weight uniformity.

The binders applied can give a high and uniform tensile

strength to the OC ECR Veil for processes such as

filament winding. Both OC Surfacing Veil product typesoffer excellent corrosion resistance.

Owens Corning manufactures a very broad range of OC
