Abstract
The present invention provides fluid storage and dispensing tanks and methods for storing reactive fluids, such as component fluids for two-component adhesives, foams, and sealants. The tanks contain a reactive fluid for storage until the fluid is desired to be dispensed. The tank includes a subject fluid storage chamber that contains the subject fluid independent of any propellants or other fluids or gases. When the tank is desired to be used, a propellant, such as a volatile propellant or a compressed gas (e.g. compressed air) are introduced directly into or around the storage chamber to facilitate dispensing the subject fluid from the tank. The tank may include a propellant storage chamber inside the canister body and adjacent to the subject fluid storage chamber. The propellant chamber is selectively punctured when the tank is to be used. The tank may include a flexible bladder defining the storage chamber.
