Fuel bladder

[4] Fuel bladders have high resistance to climatic conditions, which makes them useful for use in disaster zones and wartime desert operations.

High end fuel bladders are made of elastomer coated fabrics usually manufactured by homogeneous vulcanization in one operation.

[5] Specially developed flexible fuel bladders can also be towed by sled, as in the unique Antarctic expeditions made by American, German and British science teams.

[6] Pillow shaped tanks can be designed for non-fuel bulk liquid transport, industrial chemicals, potable water, sludge, and fuel storage.

Ultra-tough "crash-worthy" fuel bladders, reinforced with such fibers as Kevlar, are popular in the motorsports industry and are considered a critical safety component, mandated by racing's top series such as Formula 1 and NASCAR.

[8] The development of the flexible crash-worthy fuel bladder has significantly reduced the number of fires, and subsequent explosions, often experienced in a violent auto racing crashes.
