Some geometrical features (such as ribs) are difficult to mold. The following table depicts the comparison of various characteristics of various other process viz blow moulding & thermo forming that are used to produce hollow containers vis-à-vis rotational moulding. Table- Comparison of characteristics achievable in blow molding, thermoforming and Rotational Molding.

The standard defines various parameters relating to raw materials for the construction of the tank, design and dimensions parameters of cylindrical vertical tank and rectangular loft tank. The standard also defines the performance requirement viz resistance to deformations, impact, load resistance, tensile strength, flexural modulus as well as sampling and testing methods. The main parameters relating to design and dimensions of cylindrical vertical tanks and rectangular loft tank are as given below: - A). Cylindrical vertical tank: The design parameters and typical details of cylindrical vertical tank are as under: 14 Register eDocPrinter PDF Pro Online Now!!PDF Image | ANALYSIS OF ROTO-MOULDED PLASTIC CONTAINERS
