Envalior's liner materials stand up to hydrogen permeation
Hydrogen storage is critical for the hydrogen powertrain in automotive vehicles, as hydrogen has a high energy density by mass but a low energy density by volume. To address this, hydrogen is typically stored in high-pressure tanks at 350 or 700 bars in automotive applications. These tanks are designed for low weight and safety, with polymer-based materials replacing metals to reduce weight, and advanced materials and design ensuring safety at high pressures.
