Heizöllagerbehälter aus Kunststoffen (z.B. Polyethylen) sind für einen sicheren Betrieb von 30 Jahren, dem Zeitraum der Produkthaftung, ausgelegt. Die Tankhersteller empfehlen zur Gewährleistung der Sicherheit nach Ablauf von 30 Jahren den Ersatz dieser Behälter. Kunststoffe unterliegen im Laufe ihrer Nutzungsdauer der Alterung durch die Veränderung ihrer Eigenschaften. Das Ausmaß der Alterung und die Art des Abbauvorganges hängen im Wesentlichen vom chemischen Abbau des Kunststoffes, der Wanddicke des Behälters und den Umgebungsbedingungen ab. Aufgrund der Komplexität der Alterungsvorgänge sind Aussagen zum Langzeitverhalten bzw. zur Lebensdauer der Heizöllagerbehälter ohne geeignete Langzeitprüfungen problematisch. Bisher liegen keine Untersuchungen zum Langzeitverhalten der Kunststoffe vor, insbesondere nach einer Nutzungsdauer über 20 Jahre. In der BDH-Broschüre: Effiziente Systeme und erneuerbare Energien wird darauf hingewiesen, dass ca. 45 % der Heizöllagerbehälter aus Kunststoffen in Deutschland 26 Jahre und älter sind. Viele dieser Tankanlagen sind zudem noch nie von einem Sachverständigen überprüft worden. Schätzungen gehen davon aus, dass mehr als 10.000.000 Tankanlagen aus Kunststoffen in Deutschland vor 1987 errichtet wurden.
Ziel der Untersuchungen ist, den Schädigungsgrad der Kunststoffe im Vergleich zu den unbelasteten Werkstoffen zu ermitteln. Da die BAM bis Ende der 80-iger Jahre für die Zulassung dieser Behälter zuständig war, sind die Daten über den eingesetzten Werkstoff für den Vergleich noch vorhanden. Der Bundesverband Lagerbehälter e.V. und das Institut für Wärme und Oeltechnik (IWO) befürworten diese Untersuchungen, um eine Überalterung der Tankanlagen zu vermeiden. Diese Überalterung könnte die zukünftige Gefahr für die Heizöltankanlage sein, nicht der Wettbewerb mit anderen Energieformen.
Biofuels including ethanol and biodiesel (FAME) represent a renewable fuel alternative to petroleum-derived transport fuels. The aim of this work was to study the interaction between high density polyethylene (HDPE) with permeation barriers in form of polyamide (PA) and fluorination, and biofuels such as E85 (fuel with 85 % ethanol), biodiesel and B10 (heating oil with 10 % biodiesel). 10 l jerrycans made of polyethylene with permeation barrier of PA were filled with E85 and biodiesel and exposed to temperatures of 20 °C and 40 °C for 5 years. Half of the 20 l jerrycans of HDPE for filling with B10 were fluorinated at the inner layer to prevent permeation before the exposure. Tensile properties were determined once a year, and FTIR-spectroscopy was used to evaluate possible changes.
The tensile properties tensile strength and breaking elongation of HDPE jerrycan cuttings with permeation barrier decreased, but not significantly, after immersion in E85, biodiesel and B10. The elasticity modulus of the polyethylene grades was especially reduced during exposure to E85.
The FTIR spectra of HDPE jerrycan cuttings with permeation barrier showed that immersion tests for five years with the test fuels at 20 °C and 40 °C did not lead to a decomposition of the permeation barriers.

The monitoring of oil and gas pipelines by means of distributed fibre optic sensors is becoming common. The most recent development in the field of fibre optic sensing is the distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), which allows to detect and to localize third party threats to pipelines. For this purpose, fibre optic telecommunication cables located close to the pipelines are usually used. However, DAS carries a far greater potential for continuous condition monitoring of pipelines.
The interdisciplinary research project AGIFAMOR (Ageing Infrastructures – Fibre Optic Monitoring of Pipes) at BAM investigates a new technical approach to extend the application field of DAS towards the detection and localization of acoustic signals that indicate critical alterations and certain damage scenarios originated from within the pipeline or the pipe wall. Therefore, the optical fibre sensors are applied onto the pipe itself and the application procedure towards an optimal acoustic signal transduction is optimized.
A number of laboratory scale experiments were performed focusing on the signal transmission of acoustic signals as well as the detection of damages in the pipe wall by means of DAS. Furthermore, real-scale tests on a pipeline DN100 of 38m length have been carried out at the BAM test site for technical safety (BAM-TTS) to study the detection and localization of leaks and of changing flow profiles due to corrosion or sedimentation processes.
Schäden an Rohrleitungen können zu hohen Umweltbelastungen und wirtschaftlichen Schäden führen. Um die dauerhafte Verfügbarkeit der Infrastruktur zu gewährleisten, wird im Rahmen des Projekts AGIFAMOR an der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) erprobt, inwiefern das Verfahren der verteilten akustischen faseroptischen Sensorik (Distributed acoustic sensing – DAS) zur kontinuierlichen Überwachung von Rohrleitungen eingesetzt werden kann. Neben der DAS werden erprobte Verfahren der zerstörungsfreien Prüfung wie Schallemissionsanalyse (SEA) und Beschleunigungssensoren eingesetzt. An dieser Stelle soll detailliert auf die Hauptschadensursachen an Rohrleitungen, den Versuchsstand zur mechanischen Belastung von Rohren sowie die Möglichkeiten zu Untersuchungen im Realmaßstab eingegangen werden.
Heizöllagerbehälter aus Polyethylenformstoffen werden seit Beginn der 70-iger Jahre in Deutschland hergestellt. Die Hersteller empfehlen zur Gewährleistung der Sicherheit nach Ablauf von 30 Jahren den Ersatz dieser Behälter. Polyethylenformstoffe unterliegen im Laufe ihrer Nutzungsdauer der Alterung durch die Veränderung ihrer Eigenschaften. Das Ausmaß der Alterung und die Art des Abbauvorganges hängen im Wesentlichen vom chemischen Abbau des Polyethylens, der Wanddicke des Behälters und den Umgebungsbedingungen ab. Bisher lagen keine Untersuchungen zum Langzeitverhalten der Polyethylenformstoffe vor, insbesondere nach einer Nutzungsdauer der Tanks über 30 Jahre. Ziel der Untersu-chungen war, den tatsächlichen Schädigungsgrad der Polyethylenformstoffe im Vergleich zu den unbelasteten Formstoffen zu ermitteln. Da die BAM bis Mitte der 90-iger Jahre für die Prüfungen und Gutachten zur Zulassung dieser Behälter zuständig war, sind die Werkstoffdaten noch vorhanden.
Als Untersuchungsmethoden wurden die Bestimmung der Schmelze-Masse-Fließrate (MFR) und die Fourier-Transformation-IR-Spektroskopie (FTIR) von Tankausschnitten aus dem Bereich des Bodens, des Mantels und des Daches von 10 ausgesonderten Behältern aus den Polyethylenformstoffen A und B herangezogen. Die Messungen der MFR der Tankaus-schnitte aus diesen Bereichen zeigten Unterschiede in den Werten in Abhängigkeit vom Ge-wicht (5 kg oder 21,6 kg), welches eingesetzt wurde. Eine Abnahme der MFR-Werte wurde für die größere Anzahl der Tankwandungsausschnitte aus dem Formstoff B nach einer Lebensdauer der Tanks > 30 Jahre gemessen. Dieser Formstoff wurde hauptsächlich durch innere Alterung infolge Vernetzungen, Verzweigungen und Weichmacherverlust und weniger durch oxidativen Abbau geschädigt. Die FTIR-Messungen der Proben aus dem Bereich des Bodens und des Mantels der Tanks zeigten, dass die Intensität der asymmetrischen/symmetrischen CH2 -Streckschwingungen im Bereich: 2800 - 2900 cm-1 und der CH2 -Biegeverformungsschwingung bei 1400 cm-1 aufgrund von Kettenspaltungen zugenommen haben. Die Intensität der Carbonylstreckschwingung C=O bei 1740 cm-1 ist niedrig. Sie ist ein Maß für die Oxidation des Polymerwerkstoffes.
Compatibility of polymeric materials with heating oil/biodiesel blends at different temperatures
(2019)
Materials compatibility is a major concern whenever the fuel composition is changed. The question arises of whether polymeric materials are resistant to heating oil with admixtures of 10 % biodiesel (B10) and 20 % biodiesel (B20).
The polarity of biodiesel increases its solvency and facilitates permeation and extrac-tion. Solvation, swelling and/or extraction lead to changes in the physical properties and chemical changes of polymeric materials.
The objective of this research was to determine the resistance of frequently used sealing materials such as FKM, EPDM, CR, CSM, NBR, IIR, VMQ, FVMQ, PA and PUR in up to four-year aged B10 for 84 days at 20 °C, 40 °C and 70 °C.
The polymeric materials: ACM, FKM, HNBR, PA, PE; POM, PUR and PVC were ex-posed to B20 for 84 days at 40°C and 70°C in another research project.
Mass, tensile strength, breaking elongation and Shore hardness A (D) of the test specimens were determined before and after the exposure for 84 (42) days in the heating oil blends B10 and B20.
There is not determined a threshold for the reduction in tensile properties and Shore hardness in the international standards. Therefore, a threshold of 15 % was deter-mined for the evaluation of the compatibility.
Measurements of the variations in mass, tensile properties and Shore hardness after exposure of the polymers in non-aged and aged heating oil B10 showed clearly that FKM, FVMQ and PA were the most resistant materials in B10. The elastomers CR, CSM, EPDM, IIR, NBR and VMQ were generally not resistant to B10. Damage to the materials increased with higher test temperatures and the age of B10.
FKM, POM and PVC showed high compatibility in B20 at 40°C and 70 °C. ACM, HNBR and PA were evaluated as resistant in B20 at 40 °C but not at 70°C.
Biofuels including ethanol and biodiesel (fatty acid methyl ester, FAME) represent an important renewable fuel alternative to petroleum-derived transport fuels. Increasing biofuels use would bring some benefits, such as a reduction in oil demands and greenhouse gas emissions, and an improvement in air quality. Materials compatibility is a major concern whenever the fuel composition is changed in a fuel system.
The objective of this research was to determine the resistance of frequently used sealing materials such as CR (chloroprene rubber), CSM (chlorosulfonated polyethylene), EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene rubber), FKM (fluorocarbon rubber), FVMQ (methyl-fluorosilicone rubber), IIR (butyl rubber), NBR (acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber), PA (polyamides), PUR (polyester urethane rubber) and VMQ (methyl-vinyl-silicone rubber), in heating oil with admixtures of biogenic sources such as E10 (fuel with max. 10 % ethanol), E85 (fuel with 85 % ethanol), non-aged and aged biodiesel, diesel fuel with 5 % biodiesel, non-aged and aged B10 (heating oil with 10 % biodiesel) at 20 °C, 40 °C and 70 °C. Mass, tensile strength and breaking elongation of the test specimens were determined before and after the exposure for 84 days in the fuels. The visual examination of some elastomer test specimens clearly showed the great volume increase until break or partial dissolution. Shore hardness A and D (for PA) were determined before and after exposure of the test specimens in the biofuels for 42 days.
There is not determined a threshold for the reduction in tensile properties and Shore hardness in the international standards. Therefore, a threshold of 15 % was set for the evaluation of the compatibility. The sealing materials CR, CSM, EPDM, IIR and NBR were generally not resistant to biodiesel and B10. In summary, it can be therefore stated that the chemical resistance of the fluoropolymers FKM and FVMQ in fuels and biofuels is the best one.
Das Gefährdungspotential von Rohrleitungen hängt primär von den Eigenschaften des durchfließenden Stoffes, den Betriebsbedingungen und den äußeren Beanspruchungen ab. Zu den Hauptschadensursachen an Rohrleitungen zählen Korrosion, Druckstöße und Kavitationsschläge, Zeitstandbeanspruchung, struktur- und fluidmechanische Schwingungen, Fremdberührungen, elektrische Fremdbeeinflussung und geologische Besonderheiten im Bereich des Rohrleitungsverlaufes.
Impact of biocomponents in the fuel and heating oil on the compatibility of sealing materials
(2016)
The objective of this research was to determine the resistance of frequently used sealing materials such as FKM, FVMQ, VMQ, EPDM, CR, CSM, IIR, PA, NBR and PUR in fuels and heating oil with and without admixtures of biogenic sources such as E10, diesel fuel with 5 % biodiesel, non-aged and 2 year aged B10 (heating oil with 10 % biodiesel), pure diesel, standard heating oil and premium grade fuel Super plus at 20 °C, 40 °C and 70 °C.
Mass, tensile strength and breaking elongation of the test specimens were determined before and after the exposure for 84 days in the fuels. The visual examination of some elastomer test specimens clearly showed the great volume increase until break or partial dissolution. Shore hardness A and D (for PA) were determined before and after exposure of the test specimens in the biofuels for 42 days.
There is not determined a threshold for the reduction in tensile properties and Shore hardness in the international standards. Therefore a threshold of 15 % was determined for the evaluation of the compatibility.

Technically high-quality hollow articles made of polyethylene have proved many times their value as dangerous goods packagings. Design type tests according to the international regulations for the transport of dangerous goods - drop test, stacking test, hydraulic pressure test and leakproofness test must be performed for every design type and manufacturer. The properties melt flow rate (MFR), relative density (D), low temperature notched Impact strength (N.I.S.) at -30 °C, environmental stress crack resistance (FNCT) and resistance to oxidative degradation Ox by nitric acid (determined by the increase of MFR) have been selected together with the corresponding test methods and tolerances for a comparison of polyethylene grades of one design type in the procedural rule on suitability proof for alternative plastic resins used for dangerous goods packagings and intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) – EN 15507. We wanted to proof the practical relevance of this standard by comparing the relationship between the results of the FNCT and the times to failure of design types in stacking tests with wetting solution and normal butyl acetate saturated wetting solution.
The aim of this work was to study the interaction between high density polyethylene (HDPE) grades as material for dangeraus goods packagings and biofuels such as E10 (fuel with 10% ethanol), E85 (fuel with 85% ethanol), biodiesei and 810 (heating oil with 10% biodiesel). Jerricans made of two polyethylene grades were filled with these fuels and exposed to temperatures of 20 oc and 40 oc for more than one year. Tensile properlies (tensile strength, breaking elongation and elasticity modulus) and Melt Flow Rate (MFR) were determined, and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to evaluate changes in the chemical structure.
Measurements of the MFR and tensile properlies of the polyethylene grades after exposure to E1 0, E85 and 810 showed only a slightly damaging influence. A n increase in the peak of 1585 cm·1 for the (C=C) stretching vibrations was visible in the FTIR spectra after immersion tests with E85. A n increase in the MFR with the immersion time of the grades in biodiesei was measured - in parlicular, after one year of exposure. The elasticity modulus of the polyethylene grades was reduced with the immersion time too. The FTIR spectra showed a broadening of the C=O peak of 1740 cm·1 and the appearance of the hydroxyl group at 3500 cm·1.
Changes in fuel composition and the introduction of alternative fuels often create problems of degradation in materials. The objective of this research is to study the interaction of the sealing materials FKM, EPDM, CR, CSM, N8R, IIR, VMQ, FVMQ and PA and biofuels such as non-aged and 2 year aged biodiesel (FAME), E1 0 (fuel with 10% ethanol, E85 (fuel with 85% ethanol} and non-aged and 1 year aged 810 (heating oil with 10% biodiesel) in comparison with premium grade fuel without ethanol. Exposure tests were performed with test specimens at 20 °C, 40 oc and 70 oc for 84 days to document the changes in mass, volume and tensile properties. The sealing materials FKM, FVMQ and PA were evaluated as resistant in E10, and FVMQ, VMQ and PA as resistant in E85 at 20 oc and 40 oc. S welling resulted from the high absorption by the elastemers CR, CSM, EPDM, IIR and N8R in comparison to their dissolution in non-aged biodiesei at 40 °C. FKM was still resistant in aged biodiesei at 40 oc but only to a limited degree at 70 °C. The sealing materials CR, CSM, EPDM, IIR and N8R were damaged to a high extent in non-aged and aged 810. Of all the sealing materials, FKM and FVMQ showed high compatibility with these biofuels up to 70 °C.
Biofuels represent an important renewable fuel alternative to petroleum-derived transport fuels. Materials compatibility is a major concern whenever the fuel composition is changed. The aim of this work is to study the interaction of the elastomers: FKM, EPDM, CR, CSM, NBR, IIR, VMQ and FVMQ and biofuels such as biodiesel (FAME), E85 (fuel with 85% ethanol) and B10 (heating oil with 10% biodiesel). Exposure tests were performed with test specimens at 40°C (104°F) and 70°C (158°F) for 84 days to document the changes in mass, volume and tensile properties according to ISO 1817. The exposure tests in E85 showed that the weight gain caused by swelling was in the range up to 12%. The lowest decrease in the tensile properties was determined for FKM, VMQ and IIR. The weight gain of the elastomers in biodiesel varied between 10% (FKM) and 126% (CSM) and the loss of tensile strength between 16% (FKM) and 100% (CSM) at 70°C (158°F). FKM and FVMQ absorbed much less B10 and swelled less. NBR, EPDM, CR, CSM, IIR and VMQ were not resistant to B10 at all as the decrease in the tensile properties was significantly over 50%. Among all of the elastomers FKM showed high compatibility with these biofuels up to 70°C (158°F).
In der Bundesrepublik Deutschland werden über 400 Mio.t Gefahrgüter jährlich in Tankfahrzeugen, Aufsetztanks, Batteriefahrzeugen, Eisenbahnkesselwagen und Tankcontainern befördert, davon etwa 150 Millionen Tonnen im Straßengüterverkehr. Zu den Hauptschadensursachen zählt die Korrosion, wobei die gleichmäßige und ungleichmäßige Flächenkorrosion die Korrosionsart ist, die beim Chemikalientransport in Tanks am häufigsten auftritt. Viele Schäden durch Lochkorrosion entstehen beim Transport von chloridhaltigen Medien bei Anwesenheit von Feuchtigkeit.
Die BAM-Liste - Anforderungen an Tanks für die Beförderung gefährlicher Güter - ist Grundlage für die stoffbezogenen Baumusterzulassungen für Tankcontainer und ortsbewegliche Tanks zur Beförderung gefährlicher Güter durch die BAM seit der Herausgabe der 1. Auflage 1989. In die BAM-Liste wurden vorrangig solche gefährlichen Güter aufgenommen, die potenziell in Tanks befördert werden können. Die Beständigkeitsbewertungen gebräuchlicher metallischer Tankwerkstoffe und polymerer Dichtungs-, Beschichtungs- und Auskleidungswerkstoffe werden auch bei der Zulassung von Kesselwagen und Tankfahrzeugen als Erkenntnisquelle verwendet. Diese Daten sind aber unter sorgfältiger Überprüfung der Übertragbarkeit auch für andere praktische Anwendungen und unter Berücksichtigung der jeweiligen Praxisbedingungen auch als Ratgeber für Verpackungen, IBC, Lagerbehälter, Rohrleitungen usw. aus metallischen Werkstoffen anwendbar.
In den internationalen Gefahrgutverordnungen ADR, RID und IMDG-Code wird nach einer vorgegebenen Prüffrist eine innere Besichtigung der Tanks gefordert. Bei Tankcontainern beträgt diese Prüffrist im ADR/RID, Kap. 6.8 , fünf Jahre (bei der Beförderung von ortsbeweglichen Tanks nach ADR/RID, Kap. 6.7, und nach dem IMDG-Code 2½ Jahre) und bei Tankfahrzeugen sechs Jahre. Im RID wird für Eisenbahnkesselwagen eine Prüffrist von acht Jahren für die Innenbesichtigung vorgeschrieben. Für die Dauer der Prüfintervalle muss die Werkstoffbeständigkeit der Tankwerkstoffe gewährleistet sein.
Biodiesel is subject to degradation processes like oil and grease. The oxidative degradation products of vegetable oil esters in biodiesel particularly lead to enhanced sedimentation in blended fuels.
The polarity of biodiesel increases its solvency and facilitates permeation and extraction. Solvation, swelling and/or extraction lead to changes in the physical properties and chemical changes of polymeric materials. It also accelerates the degradation (hydrolysis and oxidation) of these materials with the loss of additives and stabilizers.
The objective of this research was to determine the resistance of frequently used polymeric materials such as ACM, EPDM, FKM, FVMQ, CR, CSM, IIR, HNBR, NBR, PA, PE; POM, PUR, PVC and VMQ in biodiesel and heating oil with 10 %/20 % biodiesel (B10/B20) at 40°C and 70°C.
Mass, tensile strength and breaking elongation of the test specimens were determined before and after the exposure for 84 days in the biodiesel heating oil blends. The visual examination of some elastomer test specimens clearly showed the great volume increase until break or partial dissolution. Shore hardness A and D were determined before and after exposure of the test specimens in the biofuels for 42 days.
The elastomers CR, CSM, EPDM, IIR, NBR and VMQ were generally not resistant to biodiesel and B10 at 40°C and 70°C. FKM, ACM, HNBR, PA, PE, POM, and PVC showed high compatibility in B10/B20 at 40°C. A lower compatibility was determined for ACM in biodiesel. ACM and HNBR were not resistant in B20 at 70°C.
Biodiesel is viewed as a major source of energy. In areas such as the European Union, where 80 % of the oil-based fuel is imported, there is also the desire to reduce dependence on external oil supplies.
Materials compatibility is a major concern whenever the fuel composition is changed. The question arises of whether polymeric materials are resistant to heating oil with 20 % biodiesel (B20) in comparison to pure heating oil.
The polarity of biodiesel increases its solvency and facilitates permeation and extraction. Solvation, swelling and/or extraction lead to changes in the physical properties. Extraction alters the fuel chemistry. These chemical changes could also accelerate the degradation (hydrolysis and oxidation) of the polymeric material with the loss of additives and stabilizers.
The objective of this research was to determine the resistance of frequently used materials for components in middle distillate facilities such as ACM, FKM, HNBR, PA, PE, POM, PUR and PVC in heating oil and heating oil blend B20 for 84 days at 40 °C, and FKM, HNBR, PA, POM, PUR and PVC at 70 °C.
Mass, tensile strength, breaking elongation and Shore hardness A (D) of the test specimens were determined before and after exposure for 84 (42) days in the test fuels under static conditions.
For the investigations under compressed conditions, the mass and the compression set of FKM test specimens were determined before and after exposure for 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90 days in B20 at 40 °C and 70 °C according to ISO 815-1 “Rubber, vul-canized or thermoplastic - determination of compression set – Part 1: At ambient or elevated temperatures”.
There is not determined a threshold for the reduction in tensile properties and Shore hardness in the international standards. Therefore, a threshold of 15 % was determined for the evaluation of the compatibility.
The change of tensile strength and breaking elongation of test specimens made of ACM, FKM, HNBR, PA, PE, POM, PUR and PVC exposed to heating oil and the blend B20 was less than 15 % at 40 °C. A maximum reduction in Shore hardness A of 14 % was determined for ACM at 40 °C and for HNBR of 15 % at 70 °C.
It can be concluded that ACM, FKM, HNBR, PA, PE, POM, PVC and PUR were resistant in B20 at 40°C. FKM, PA, POM and PVC were evaluated as resistant in heat-ing oil and B20 at 70 °C, HNBR and PUR were not resistant in these fuels at 70°C.
Based on the mass increase and compression set values of FKM test specimens it can be stated that FKM is resistant in B20 under compressed conditions at 40 °C and 70 °C.
