“…Thus The 9% Ni steel has been widely used around the world as a material for the inner walls of LNG-tanks and pipelines because of its excellent cryogenic fracture toughness. The brittle fracture properties of the steel, which are closely related to the safety of structures, among others, has been extensively studied, and as a result, it has been made clear that the steel and its welded joints have sufficiently good brittle fracture properties for application to above-ground LNG tanks [3][4][5][6][7].…”

The growing needs for energy combined with the will to reduce CO2 emissions lead to the increase of the demand for liquefied natural gas (LNG), which will be stably available for many decades to come. Cryogenic materials used for the manufacture of the inner tanks for LNG storage are composed of 9% Ni steel plates with excellent low-temperature toughness, great ductility and crack resistance for a high safety level. To guarantee the reliability and safe operation of large-scale metallic structures exposed to cryogenic temperatures for extended periods, it is important to evaluate structural and mechanical properties of the metal base as well as the welded zone in their own operating conditions in order to prevent damages that could occur.

“…As the main components of spacecraft, the volume percentage of LOX tank is about 70%. Due to the ultra-low temperature and oxidant properties of LOX, LOX tank is usually made from inertia dense metal alloy, 6 and thus its weight percentage is more than 80% of the whole spacecraft. The use of LOX tank made from lightweight material is an effective solution to reduce the cost of placing load into space.…”

Lightweight liquid oxygen (LOX) tank has attracted much attention recently, and epoxy resin is considered to be one of the most likely candidate materials. In this work, polymer wafer made from bisphenol-A epoxy resin was firstly treated with LOX, and then its macroscopic morphology, microscopic structure, and chemical composition were analyzed by atomic force microscopy and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy. Finally, its compatibility with LOX was studied by mechanical impact test. The results showed that LOX treatment has little influence on the macroscopic morphology and chemical composition of the epoxy resin wafer, but has a large influence on its microstructure and compatibility with LOX. With the increase of immersion time, the surface roughness, the number, length, and depth of the cracks appeared on the sample surface were all increased. The reaction caused by mechanical impact became more frequent and intense. Finally, possible damage mechanism was discussed.
