Why
Glasteel®? |
 |
|
 |
|
The benefits of GMM Pfaudler glass-lined equipment
are well known: |
 |
Glasteel®
is resistant to most corrosive substances even under
extreme thermal conditions.
|
 |
Glasteel®
is essentially inert, so it cannot adversely affect
product purity or flavour.
|
 |
Glasteel®
resists the build-up of viscous or sticky products,
which means better heat transfer, less frequent cleaning
and higher productivity.
|
 |
Glasteel®
is strong. Fusing glass to steel produces a high strength,
corrosive resistant composite.
|
|
 |
Now,
A Glass for the World |
 |
|
In recent years, because of the expansion of the chemical
process and pharmaceutical industries world-wide and increased
concerns for safety and quality control, Pfaudler began
investigating new approaches in glass development that would
lead to a glass composition that could be made available to
all users of glass-lined equipment.
Together with the chemical process industry and with the co-operation
of Pfaudler divisions around the world, Pfaudler established
the criteria for a new composition:
 |
A
non-crystalline structure. |
 |
Increased
resistance to acid and alkali corrosion. |
 |
High
resistance to impact. |
 |
High
resistance to thermally induced stresses. |
 |
A
formulation that could be easily produced by all Pfaudler
manufacturing plants. |
The result is Glasteel
9100®,
Pfaudler's first "international glass", offering
an unmatched combination of corrosion resistance, impact strength,
thermal shock resistance, non-adherence and heat transfer
efficiency.
Now GMM Pfaudler customers, regardless of where their
processing operations are located, can purchase a single glass
system and be assured of getting the same high quality worldwide.
With Glasteel 9100 ®,
GMM Pfaudler sets a standard the world can depend on.
