The differences between glass-lined reaction vessels and enameled reaction vessels

Both are anti-corrosion type reaction vessels. Enamel is the process of pre-sintering a layer of glass inside a metal kettle, while enamel is the process of sintering a layer of ceramic, which serves to resist chemical corrosion. The processing methods and material costs of enameled glass and enamel are different, and there is a slight price difference. Specifically, how do we distinguish between the two? Let's take a look at the details together:

In terms of production process, the enamel reactor is made by lining the inner surface of a steel container with glass containing high silica, making it an excellent corrosion-resistant device. It has been widely applied in industries such as chemical engineering, petroleum, medicine, pesticides and food.

2. The glass-lined reactor is a metal vessel with a layer of glass pre-sintered inside. The glass-lined reactor cannot be used for alkaline materials because the glass will be dissolved by the alkali and corroded. However, enamel reaction vessels can be used for both acids and alkalis.

At present, the differences between enamel reaction vessels and glass-lined reaction vessels are the above-mentioned types. Due to the different environments they are used in, the user groups are also different. When making a choice, we should still select based on our own requirements. Both have a wide range of applications.
