Material safety of liquid oxygen storage tanks
The safety of liquid oxygen storage tanks is key to ensuring the safety of liquid oxygen storage and handling processes, because liquid oxygen (LOX) has extremely low temperatures and strong oxidizing properties when in liquid form

Liquid oxygen storage tanks need to use materials that can withstand low temperatures, such as cryogenic steel or alloy materials. These materials should have good mechanical properties and brittleness resistance to prevent rupture at low temperatures.
Liquid oxygen storage tanks must have an effective insulation system to reduce heat exchange with the external environment and maintain the low temperature state of liquid oxygen, usually using vacuum insulation or high-efficiency insulation materials.
