Low permeation polymer fuel tank

摘要

A permeation resistant polymer fuel tank having a multilayer wall that includes a structural layer and a vapor barrier layer. A secondary barrier layer is attached to the multilayer wall wherein the vapor barrier layer and the second barrier layer have a permeation rate less than the structural layer. A protective coating may be applied over the secondary barrier layer to add durability and prevent degradation of the secondary barrier layer from environmental hazards that fuel tanks may be exposed to.
