What Are Chemical Drums?

What Are Chemical Drums?

Chemical drums are plastic containers designed for storing and transporting chemical liquids, raw materials, and other hazardous substances. They feature excellent sealing, corrosion resistance, and impact strength, and are widely used in chemical, pesticide, pharmaceutical, and food additive industries. With growing demands for safety and environmental protection, the design of chemical drums continues to evolve.

Main Types of Chemical Drums

Based on structure, chemical drums are commonly divided into three types: open-top drums, single-ring drums, and double-ring drums.

Open-top drums: The top can be fully opened, making them suitable for storing solids, pastes, or high-viscosity materials such as powders, resins, or coatings.

Single-ring drums: These have one reinforcement ring around the body, providing solid structure and good sealing. They are ideal for liquid chemicals and easy to handle during stacking or transport.

Double-ring drums : Designed with two reinforcement rings (top and bottom), these drums offer greater strength and deformation resistance, perfect for long-distance transport or dense chemical liquids.

Materials Used in Chemical Drums

Most chemical drums are made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE). This material has excellent resistance to chemicals, impact, and aging, ensuring safe and durable use even in harsh environments without leakage or cracking.

Applications of Chemical Drums

Chemical drums are widely used for detergents, lubricants, chemical reagents, pesticides, and additives. Different drum types can be selected according to product characteristics and transport conditions to ensure both safety and efficiency.
