  >  Process

- Glass are made by heating mixtune that nearly always consist of silica call & dry powder or metallic oxides.

- Most glass are manufactun by a process in which raw-mateutials are converted at high temperature to a homogejeaus melts , that is then form in to an article.

-  Raw mateutials are selecting acrourding the properties purity supply, cost etc .

- Silica sand is most common in goradiant all most type of glasses.

 - limp-Stones is a sourvr of colcium soda ash is Source of Sadium and bore and Boutic acid is Source of borone.

- Broken gloss Usually termed as collected is used as a batch material to enhance glass melting and to resuce the amount of dust and other particular matter that aften a companies a batch mads exculsively from fresh raw-mateuial.

- Tipically 10 to 151% of glass batch is the comprised of collect.

- More efficient of operation as used in the container glass industries may required of purchas of collect forom flate glass compay or colloctors and distuributouis.

- Morden analytical techniques hve not only added glass produce but also unable suppiers of raw material to produce more consistance proloduct.
-Melling and fiing depends on the batch mate rial interacting where each other the proper types and proper.

- Ideally when the intimently mixed is changed in to the hot furnece series of melting in dissociation Volatarization and redox reaction ane takes-place between the material in a particulr order and particulaur temperature.

- In the continueous tank furnace four type of process occuuis like Melting, Refiming fining & homo-genzing .

- After homo-genizing whole mass cooled at 800°c in fabrication unit, where Shaped is done drawing pressing or blowing depending upon the Size of anticles.

- Finished the product and charged in to the anotheui furnace for anneling.

- Aneling is caunied out at about 500°C for 60 to 90 minutes.

- After anneling inspection and testing is done and then inspected material packed and dispatch while unpassed moteurial is rejectedd as collect which is recycle.


> Types Of Glass

-There are man five types of Glass

1) Soda-Lime Glass

 - This type still Putovides most of the common, Colouiless transparent.

- This raw materials are the least experisive & they among the easiest to melt & Shape.

- Molten Soda-line glass are typically well using suited for windon glass sheet glass, Plate glass, comtainens such as bottles inexpensive table were etc.

-However their relatively low softening temperature & relatively low thermal shock resistance limits their high termp. usefulmess.

-These are easily attacked by strong alkalis.

2) Lead Glass

-Lead glass is essentially made by using lead oxide - pbo for fluxing & stahlbilizing the silica & the akali.

-very high Percemtage of lead oxide may be corporated for some extra dense oplical qlasses.

-Lead glaas are some what more
expensive but are easier to melt &  shape.

-Lead glasses have greater rework ability.

- High lead content markedly inculegse the absouiption of x-rays & such glasses are used for Arotection agai16L x-rays & other radiation

-Costly Prisms & lenses are usually made of lead glass.

3) Borosilicate Glass

-In this type of glass melting pint of Silica is lowered by the addifon of boric & boron oxide

-This type of glass contins unusually Small amounts of alkalis & non or at the most 1% of calcium oxide.

-Silica content is signiticantly higher than that of Soda-lime glass lead glass.

-It may contain upto 3% of alumimium oxyda.

-These glasses are harder to melt & woork it has greater resistance to theurmal shock.

-These properties have made possible uses for these type of glasses as oven ware, theumally mechanically Strong laboratoy  were, most of the Comman chemicols compoments for use in chemical industry & chemical laboratories.

4)Vycor Or 96% Silica Glass

-These type is made by a very different & new way of securing a desired composition.

-In first Stage , an alkali glass out borosilicate glass is melted & shaped in to desired anticle, but of about 14 % overisize dimensions.

-This anticle is heat -treated the glass of changes in to two inteuimingled glassy phases outer phase is high in alkalis & boron oxides.

-The other -inner phase is high in siljca ,contains about 96% silica & about 3% boroton oxides.

-In the second stage the soluble pphase Is leached out in hot mineral acids & the highen£r silica statuctume is left as a porous Sturuchure.

-The porous stucture is washed to remove the boric & is heated to about 1200°C.

- The glass article shrinks about 14% the structure becomes consolidated

-The 96% cilica glass -vycor has Such a  stability &  such high Sottening temp. ( about 1500°c) leboratory were crusibles furnare linings ultura Violet fillters & high fequency electutical insulations are typical application of the glass.

5) Silica qiass : (fused Silica)

-silica glass can be made by feeding a batch consisting silica sand of very high purity.

-Melting temp. of the batch is as high as that of silica crystal about 1750°Cll

-The molte glass is very highly viscous & it is very difficult to secure homogeneaity freedom from bubbles.

-very high viscosity at working temp.  make fabrication difficuit l& limils the size & shapes of the arcticles

Types of rabbur and information about it.

 Rubber is a name of a matenrial which come Strate & Shrinkage. - Rubber is a polymer either peroduced by a natural Source Can be synthesis on an industusial scale. - Rubbeut is also known as elastomer is a high Polymeulr having elastic propenties. - Elasticity & rabberness is the most important Properties of rubber. - on strching it elongate to nearly 200% of its original dimentational &  quickely reaction to it's original Shape when Strching fouice is a remove. >   Importance of application of ruubber  properties of rubber(natural & synthetic rubber) 1)  Grood tensile Strength. 2) High flexibility 3) good electrical resistance 4) good chemical resistance 5) good Abrasion resistance 6) good resilience 7) high elasticity 8) low condudivity 9) low permeability to air, grases & Liquids. - Rubber are use manufacture of large no. of puroducts such as, tyres, v-belts, conveyor belts rubber lined tanks, m...

Industrial Production of MgSo4,CaSo4, Mg(OH)² & MgCo³ & Na²Sio³

1)  Industrial production of MgSo4,CaSo4, Mg(OH)² > Reaction                                     1)  Mgcl² + Ca(OH)²  ----->  Mg(OH)² +                                                            CaCl² 2)  Cacl² + H²So4  ------>  CaSo4 + 2HCL 3)  MgCl² + H²So4 ------> MgSo4 + 2HCL > Process  - In the industrial production of MgSo4 & CaSo4 first of all mixed salt bittern is first taken in a reactor. - Ca( OH)² from line treatment tank is also charge into the reactor. - Due to reactor precipitation of the Mg(OH)² is obtained. - filter the mass in filter press to remove precipitation of Mg(OH)² which is dry pulverised & packed. - Filtrate is further taken in a trea...
