FOR SAFE AND RELIABLE H2 STORAGE
VESTAMID® IN TYPE IV TANK LINERS
VESTAMID® is the ideal material for hydrogen storage applications due to its exceptional mechanical properties and excellent resistance to highpressure gases.
With VESTAMID®, large dimensions of 2m and larger are possible, making it a versatile choice for both mobility/utility and stationary tanks. VESTAMID® in a full system can easily withstand 700bar pressurized gas, making it the best choice for hydrogen storage. VESTAMID® can be processed by blowmolding, rotomolding and extrusion offering a maximum flexibility in manufacturing.
