EN 13121-2:2003 (E)4IntroductionEuropean Standard EN 13121 consists of the following parts under the general title "GRP tanks and vessels for useabove ground":Part 1 — Raw materials — Specification conditions and acceptance conditionsPart 2 — Composite materials - Chemical resistancePart 3 — Design and workmanshipPart 4 — Delivery, installation and maintenanceThese four parts together define the responsibilities of the tank or vessel manufacturer, the materials manufacturersor suppliers and the purchaser.The design and manufacture of GRP tanks and vessels involve a number of different materials such as resins,thermoplastics and reinforcing fibres and a number of different manufacturing methods. It is implicit that tanks andvessels conforming to this Standard should be made only by manufacturers who are competent and suitably equippedto fulfil all requirements, using materials manufactured by competent and experienced material manufacturers.EN 13121-1 gives the requirements necessary to establish that the GRP material and any thermoplastic lining willhave the required chemical and thermal resistance to the service conditions.
EN 13121-1 specifies the requirementsfor the specification conditions and acceptance conditions for GRP and thermoplastic materials, which are necessaryin order to establish the chemical resistance properties of these materials in accordance with this Part of the standard.EN 13121-2 gives the requirements necessary to establish that the GRP material and any thermoplastic lining willlhave sufficient chemical and thermal resistance to service conditions. Part 2 defines the requirements for theprotective layer and the structural laminate as well as defining methods for proof of suitability to meet thechemical/thermal effects caused by the fluids and of determination of the partial design factor, A2, as required fordesign in accordance with prEN 13121-3. Five methods are described — use of Media Lists, use of resinmanufacturers data, use of thermoplastics manufacturers data, service experience and sample testing. Themanufacturer of the tank or vessel may choose any one of these methods subject to here being sufficient dataavailable in that method for the particular application.Together with the requirements and acceptance conditions for the raw materials determined in EN 13121-1, thedesign and workmanship requirements as determined in prEN 13121-3 and the delivery, handling, installation andmaintenance recommendations given in EN 13121-4, EN 13121-2 completes the total standard's requirements.

The protective layer shall be either a singleprotective layer (SPL) or a chemical resistant layer (CRL) or a thermoplastic lining (TPL).The type of protective layer shall be selected on the basis of the ability to prevent, or limit to an acceptable level,chemical attack on the laminate. In order to do this, it shall be chemically resistant to the service conditions, allowlimited diffusion of service fluids and shall not suffer environmental stress cracking. The TPL may require stressrelief to prevent environmental stress cracking, see prEN 13121-3.The required thickness of the protective layer shall be in accordance with Table 1.When required, flammability and/or electrical conductivity shall be taken into account and/or the protective layershall be selected on the basis of its ability to maintain the purity of the service fluids.The requirements for workmanship of the protective layer are defined in prEN 13121-3.For application in contact with foodstuffs the relevant regulations shall be considered.

The fibrecontent shall be between 25 % and 35 % by mass.Following the veil layer (VL), the subsequent chopped strand mats or sprayed fibres shall be applied before cure.4.4 Thermoplastic lining (TPL)All parts of the lining shall be manufactured from the same or compatible grade of material.Linings of PVC-U are to be treated initially using a solvent based primer or the initial contact layer shall be appliedusing a specific bonding resin. Linings of PP, PVDF, E-CTFE, FEP or PFA shall have a glass or synthetic fibrefabric backing — branches up to 100 mm diameter may use chemically etched E-CTFE or PVDF linings.The initial contact layer applied directly to the thermoplastic lining shall be reinforced with chopped strand mat with300 g/m2 to 450 g/m2. The minimum bond strength of the reinforcement to the lining shall be in accordance withprEN 13121-3.Subsequent to any forming or machining, the specified thickness shall be maintained. This may require initial use ofa thicker lining material.5 Determination of partial design factor, A25.1 GeneralThis clause defines the methods for determining the partial design factor, A2, used for establishing the design factor Kand the design factor F in accordance with prEN 13121-3.Five methods are described and are summarised in Table 2; together with the maximum design temperature, Td,applicable to each particular method.The methods listed provide for situations where there are common material-/media lists given in annex A ormanufacturers' data for resins or thermoplastics are available, and where there is documented service experienceavailable in annex B or testing is required. Testing may be carried out in a laboratory and/or in-situ in an existing plantitem by procedures given in annex C.An overall view of handling these methods is given in figure 1.

EN 13121-2:2003 (E)9It will often be possible to specify the partial design factor, A2, by more than one of the above methods. In such casesit is permissible to choose the method which gives the lowest value of A2.The absence of data for a particular method is not indicative that a resin or TPL is unsuitable, it usually implies onlythat the service condition has not been studied using that particular method. This is especially so for the media listswhich only give data for temperatures as shown in Table 2, for higher service temperatures, other methods may beused.With regard to the service conditions, three possible situations can arise:a) The service conditions can be considered identical to those for which data already exists. In this case themethods listed can be used directly.b) The service conditions are sufficiently similar to those for which data already exists to allow direct use of theexisting data. In this case a judgement on degree of similarity and use of existing data is required.c) The service conditions are significantly different to any previously encountered and only those methodspertaining to the evaluation of test laminates shall be used.It is particularly important that the chemical resistance is verified for the full range of service conditions, including anytrace impurities e. g. organics or fluorides, and transient temperatures. In some cases there will be a need to take intoaccount that the protective layer may be exposed to different phases of the service fluids, e. g. gas and liquid, and thephase boundary between them.Table 2 — Maximum design temperature, Td, used for determination of thepartial design factor, A2Maximum design temperature, TdMethod of determination bySPLCRLPVC-UPP-HPP-BPP-RPVDFE-CTFEFEPPFAlists of media— of category 1 (see Table A.1)40 °C100 °C60 °C100 °C100 °C— of category 2 (see Table A.4)40 °C

For other polyester, vinyl ester, furance and phenolic resins which are not in a resin group in accordancewith EN 13121-1, then methods 5.3, 5.5 or 5.6 shall be used.The list of media given in Annex A is not a comprehensive list of all media for which this Standard may be used.Additional data may be found using methods 5.3, 5.4 or 5.5
EN 13121-2:2003 (E)10The lists do not apply for temperatures above 100 °C for category 1 media, not above 80 °C for category 2 media, notabove 60 °C for category 3 media and for mixtures of media.The lists apply to parts which have been either post-cured or not post cured in accordance with the recommendationsof the resin manufacturer. By post cure is meant that the laminate shall be maintained for a minimum of 4 h at aminimum temperature of 80 °C or the HDT of the resin or in accordance with the recommendation of the resinmanufacturer.The partial design factor, A2, is determined by taking account of the category of media, temperature, type of protectivelayer and resin group in accordance with the Table 2 of EN 13121-1:2003, type of fibre and post curing.5.3 Determination of partial design factor, A2 using resin manufacturer's data5.3.1 Chemical resistance information supplied by resin manufacturersThe chemical resistance information supplied by resin manufacturers shall include details related to the cure of thematerial from which maximum temperatures, Tm, for different service conditions were determined; for example timeand temperature of cure including post cure and heat deflection temperature (HDT).5.3.2 Minimum HDTThe HDT of the cured resin of the tank or vessel shall be at least 20 °C higher than the maximum designtemperature, Td.The maximum temperature, Tm, shall only be used by the manufacturer if the resin manufacturer's
recommendedconditions of cure and post cure will be followed during manufacture.5.3.3 Partial design factor A2The partial design factor, A2, using SPL or CRL, shall be determined in relation to the resin manufacturer'smaximum temperature, Tm, for the service conditions and the maximum design temperature, Td.The interpretation of resin manufacturer's maximum temperature, Tm, data in terms of A2, is given in Table 3.Table 3 — Partial design factor, A2, relating to the maximum designtemperature, Td, and the maximum temperature, TmMaximum design temperature, Td°CA2post curedaTd = Tm1,4Td = Tm – 101,4Td = Tm – 201,3Td = Tm – 301,3Td = Tm – 401,2Td = Tm – 501,2Td = Tm – 601,1Td = Tm – 701,1aConditions as given in 5.2 or subject to agreement with the resin manufacturer.
EN 13121-2:2003 (E)115.4 Thermoplastics manufacturer's dataUse of chemical resistance data published by the manufacturer of the thermoplastic material or the manufacturer ofthe thermoplastic lining shall be restricted to data on materials which meet the characteristic properties of EN 13121-1.Direct use of the above data shall be restricted to those service conditions for which the material or lining manufac-turer gives a recommendation of suitability in the manufacturer's highest category.In some cases, referring to the manufacturer of the thermoplastic material or lining, environmental stress crackingshall be considered by a sufficiently low stress level in production and service.When the service fluids include organic media or their mixtures, diffusion may occur that is detrimental to the TPLbond to the structural laminate. Reference shall be made to service experience or test data for such media before finalacceptance.Table 4 gives the minimum values for the partial design factor, A2, to be used at different design temperatures.Table 4 — Partial design factor, A2, relating to the maximum design temperature, Td, for TPLMaximum design temperature, Td°CTPL MaterialA2 = 1,1A2 = 1,2 PVC-U60— PP-H, PP-B, PP-R80100 PVDF, E-CTFE, FEP, PFA80120aaSubject to relevant service experience; see 5.5 and 5.6.5.5 Service experienceThis method takes account of situations where equipment is already in use containing the same or a similar serviceconditions. The equipment shall be in the form of an existing tank or vessel or as a pipe conveying the fluid.The partial design factor, A2, shall be evaluated by procedures given in annex B.In all cases, the value of the partial design factor, A2, shall be applicable to the same resin or lining as originallyspecified.5.6 Test procedures Test procedures, given in Annex C, define the requirements for testing and assessment of laminates with SPL,CRL or TPL in order to determine their suitability and to evaluate the partial design factor, A2. Testing should becarried out by exposing specimen or samples of the material to the service fluid at the design temperature forspecified times.In testing the material may be exposed with stress or without stress and the material may be one side exposed tothe test fluid or fully immersed.Consideration is given, whether the material may might suffer environmental stress cracking in service. When thisis considered possible, the suitability of the material should be qualified by testing with stress.As a first result of tests, materials may be rejected as "unsuitable" or accepted as "suitable". Following qualificationof the material as "suitable", the method given in C.3 then enables the determination of the partial design factor, A2.
