Abstract
A method for manufacturing a pressure vessel includes the steps of obtaining a metal liner and applying a first layer of adhesive to an outer surface of the metal liner. The metal liner is then placed into a vacuum bag and a vacuum is applied, thus securing the adhesive to the outer surface of the metal liner. After curing of the adhesive, a filamentary material is wound around the liner, where the filamentary material adheres to the first layer of adhesive forming an overwrap layer on the outer surface of the metal liner, forming the pressure vessel.
