Cryogenic storage tanks are an essential component of hydrogen-powered aircraft set to launch in the mid-2030s. While most designs for storing LH2 have been based on metallic tanks, they tend to be heavy. Composite tanks developed in the space industry tend to be suitable for only single-use applications. Commercial hydrogen aircraft will require…
