What are the widely used container body materials?

At present, the widely used containers in the world are classified according to their main materials:

1. The frame and wall panels of steel containers are made of steel. The advantages are high strength, firm structure, good weldability and water tightness, low price, easy repair, and not easy to damage. The main disadvantages are self-heavy and poor corrosion resistance.

2. Aluminum container

There are two kinds of aluminum containers: one is steel frame pot plate; the other is only steel at both ends of the frame, and the remaining dishes are made of pot material. The main advantages are light weight, no rust, good elasticity, and not easy to deform.

3. Stainless steel container

Generally, stainless steel is used to make tank containers. The main advantages of stainless steel containers are high strength, no rust, and good corrosion resistance. The disadvantage is that the investment is large.

4. FRP containers

The glass fiber reinforced plastic container is composed of glass fiber reinforced plastic composite panels installed on the steel frame. The main advantages are good heat insulation, corrosion resistance and chemical resistance, high strength (good performance, can withstand large stress, easy cleaning, simple repair, large internal volume of the container, etc.; the main disadvantage is the large self-weight, Higher cost.
