An expandable sealed container is formed of first and second panels, each formed of at least first and second sheets. The first sheet of each of the panels is formed of a polyvinyl fluoride film and the second sheet is formed of a flexible vinyl. In one embodiment, one surface of the polyvinyl fluoride film is treated to receive an adhesive to adhesively join the polyvinyl fluoride sheet to the vinyl sheet. The opposed second surface is capable of receiving a heat seam to form a complete peripheral seal about the container. In one configuration, the polyvinyl fluoride film sheets of each pair of sheets are facing each other and receive the heat seam. Alternately, the vinyl layers are disposed innermost to receive the heat seam. Further, a polyvinyl fluoride film having both surfaces treated to receive an adhesive is adhesively joined to the outermost surface of the vinyl sheet. The heat seam is formed about the periphery of the vinyl sheets.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A gas storage container for receiving, storing and discharging gas, the container comprising:first and second flexible plastic panels, each being formed of at least first and second separate sheets disposed in overlapping relationship with each other;the first sheet of each of the first and second panels formed of one of polyvinyl fluoride and polyvinylidene fluoride;the first sheet having opposed first and second surfaces, with at least the first surface treated to receive an adhesive and being non-heat seamable;the second sheet of each of the first and second panels having opposed surfaces and formed of a flexible vinyl material;an adhesive interposed between the overlapping surfaces of the first surface of the first sheet and the second sheet of each of the first and second panels to adhesively join the first and second sheets of each of the first and second panels together; andthe first and second sheets of each of the first and second panels oriented so as to enable a heat seam to be formed completely about the peripheral edges of overlapping, non-adhesive coated surfaces of at least one other of the first and second sheets of the first and second panels to form a hollow, expandable, sealed chamber between the innermost, non-sealed portions of the first and second panels.
