How does multi-faceted hollow ball packing work?
The porous multi‑faceted hollow spheres split the large inner volume of fuel tanks into numerous small isolated chambers.
Divides the internal tank space
The hollow grid structure partitions the tank's large interior space into plenty of tiny independent compartments.
01
Interrupts flame propagation
It blocks flame spread paths and stops rapid flame transmission inside the confined tank.
02
Absorbs and dissipates energy
The special hollow‑grid framework absorbs and dissipates explosion shock energy to curb blast overpressure.
03
Reduces liquid sloshing
Restrains violent liquid sloshing during fuel transportation, lowering impact force against tank walls.
04
Improves tank safety
Greatly enhances overall safety for the storage and transportation of flammable and hazardous liquids.

Installation Process
Step 1: Tank Inspection
Check the inner condition of the storage tank. Ensure the tank interior is clean, dry and free of sharp burrs or residual impurities before filling.
Step 2: Material Preparation
Calculate the required quantity of explosion‑suppression spheres according to tank volume and filling rate. Prepare corresponding amount of porous explosion suppression material.
Step 3: Filling
Fill the multi‑faceted hollow spheres evenly into the tank interior. Pour the material through manhole or filling opening, avoid partial accumulation.
Step 4: Inspection
Inspect the filling uniformity. Confirm the spheres are well‑distributed inside the tank without obvious void areas.
Step 5: Operation
Seal the tank properly after installation, then put the tank into normal service for liquid storage and transportation.
FAQ
Q: What is porous explosion suppression material?
A: It is multi‑faceted hollow polymer spheres designed for tank safety. When filled inside fuel or chemical storage tanks, it divides internal space into numerous small compartments to prevent explosion and flame spread.
Q: How does multi-faceted hollow ball packing inhibit flame spread?
A: The hollow porous structure splits the tank inner space into countless tiny cells. It absorbs heat, blocks shock waves and interrupts flame chain reactions, so explosion and flame cannot spread across the tank.
Q: What types of tanks can use this material?
A: Suitable for stationary storage tanks, transport tanks, underground tanks and container tanks for flammable liquids, including oil depots, refueling facilities and chemical liquid storage containers.
Q: Does it reduce the effective capacity of the tank?
A: It occupies a small portion of tank volume. The actual usable liquid capacity will decrease slightly. We will calculate the filling ratio to balance safety and storage capacity for your project.
Q: Is the material compatible with gasoline and diesel?
A: Yes. The modified polymer material features excellent chemical resistance. It is fully compatible with gasoline, diesel and many petroleum‑based fuels, no chemical reaction will occur.
Q: Can the size and structure be customized?
A: Yes. We support custom size, shape, material formula and bulk density according to your tank inner size, manhole opening and working‑medium conditions.
Q: How is the material installed?
A: It adopts direct filling. Pour the spheres into the tank through manhole or access opening. No welding or complicated tools are required. Please follow our installation steps for uniform filling.
Q: How long is the service life?
A: Service life depends on operating temperature, stored medium and working environment. Under normal fuel‑storage conditions, it can serve for many years without frequent replacement. Regular inspection is recommended.
Q: Can you provide samples?
A: Yes, we can offer small‑quantity samples for your performance test and evaluation. Please contact our sales team for sample requests.
Q: Do you provide technical support?
A: Yes. We provide full technical support including quantity calculation, filling‑solution suggestion, installation guidance and after‑sales consultation.
