Propylene oxide needs to be liquefied and stored in tanks; low-temperature spherical tanks are made from specially treated high-strength steel plates, with 07MnNiMoDR being a typical steel grade used for such large-scale low-temperature spherical tanks.

Material selection generally takes into account factors such as medium compatibility, mechanical properties like strength and stiffness, as well as cost-effectiveness. Design companies generally do not use carbon steel to store PO
