4.1 Certification of composite pressure vessels
All new composite pressure vessels must undergo a homologation process before being put on the market. In addition to the documentary aspect (calculation file, dimensioned drawings, supply and construction specifications, etc.), a number of prototype homologation tests are required on constituent materials, liners and complete tanks.
Tests on composite reinforcement materials involve, for example, the measurement...
