4 Materials
4.1 General
The tank shell shall be fabricated from metallic materials which shall be resistant to brittle fracture and of adequate
impact strength within the design temperature range. The material shall be suitable for shaping.
EN 13445-2 applies, but see also A.2 and A.3. For aluminium and aluminium alloys see also EN 14286.
Welded shells shall be fabricated from a material which has been shown to have acceptable welding characteristics.
4.2 Compatibility
Shells, fittings, and pipework shall be constructed from materials which are:
6
---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------
EN 14025:2008 (E)
a) Substantially immune to attack by the substance(s) intended to be transported; or
b) Properly passivated or neutralised by chemical reaction; or
c) Lined with corrosion-resistant material directly bonded to the shell or attached by equivalent means;
(see also A.2).
Gaskets shall be made of materials not subject to attack by the substances intended to be transported. The
materials of the tank, including any devices, gaskets, linings and accessories, shall not adversely affect the
substances intended to be transported in the tank.
Guidelines on material specifications in relation to the substances to be transported may be taken from Annex B of
EN 12285-1:2003.
5 Design
5.1 General
Tanks shall be designed to withstand without loss of contents the:
1) operating conditions including static and dynamic forces in normal conditions of carriage;
2) test conditions;
3) explosion pressure proof conditions (if required);
under consideration of Clause 6.
NOTE The requirements coming from the relevant international regulations are given in Annex A for information.
5.2 Reduction of shell thickness
The minimum wall thickness of shells (see A.2) are allowed to be reduced by a maximum of 2 mm in the case of mild
steel or of an equivalent thickness of another metal, if protection of the shell against damage through lateral impact or
overturning is provided (see 5.3 and A.2).
For shells of rail tank wagons no reduction of the minimum wall thickness due to protection is allowed.
5.3 Protection of the shell
Shells of tank containers are protected against damage if one of the following measures is provided:
structure, in which the shell is supported by a complete skeleton including longitudinal and transverse structural
members. This structure shall conform to the requirements of ISO 1496-3;
double wall construction, where the aggregate thickness of the outer metal wall and the shell wall itself is not less
than the minimum wall thickness prescribed in A.2 for reduced wall thickness;
"sandwich" construction, which means shells made with double walls having an intermediate layer of rigid solid
materials (e.g. foam, at least 50 mm thick), where the outer wall has a thickness of at least 0,5 mm of steel,
0,8 mm of aluminium or 2 mm of a plastics material reinforced with glass fibre. For other layer materials (e.g.
mineral wool, at least 100 mm thick), the outer wall has a thickness of at least 0,8 mm of austenitic steel. Other
combinations of materials used to provide protection against damage shall be shown to have equivalent strength
to the minimum thickness required in accordance with A.2. One method of comparing the strength of sheets of
materials is given in Annex B of EN 13094:2008.
For shells of road tank vehicles see also 6.8.2 of EN 13094:2008.

EN 14025:2008 (E)
5.4 Protection of equipment
Items of equipment shall be protected against the risk of being wrenched off or damaged during transport or
handling.
Equipment shall be protected by strengthening rings, protective canopies or transverse or longitudinal members.
The protection of equipment shall comply with 6.14 of EN 13094:2008.
Items of equipment of tank containers are protected if placed within the contours of a skeleton structure (frame).
Equipment used on tanks for the transport of substances to which the special provision TE 19 of ADR (see
subsection 6.8.4 ADR) is allocated need additional protection.
NOTE For vacuum-operated waste tanks RID/ADR 6.10.3.1 applies.
