A tank for the storage of liquid or gaseous substances with a fiber-reinforced plastic sheathing, which limits at least one interior space for holding the materials to be stored. At least one circumferential section of the fiber-reinforced plastic sheathing comprises an evacuable sandwich structure, which completely encloses the circumferential section. As a result, the tank has a low weight with a high thermal insulation capacity. Furthermore, a reliable explosion protection of the tank is provided. Furthermore, a method for manufacturing a tank for the storage of liquid or gaseous substances is provided.
A tank for storage of liquid or gaseous substances, with a fiber-reinforced plastic sheathing, which limits at least one interior space for an accommodation of materials to be stored, wherein at least one circumferential section of the fiber-reinforced-plastic sheathing has an evacuable sandwich structure which completely encloses the circumferential section,
The tank according to claimer 1, wherein the evacuable sandwich structure of the center circumferential section, the evacuable external structures of the end-side circumferential sections, as well as the evacuable separation bulkhead comprise at least one of electrical or optical cables and sensors.
