Basics

  • Also reffered to as "Industrial Porcelain Enamel" or "Glass-fused-to-steel" (Technology)
  • It is essentially a Glass/Porcelain Lining Inside of a Standard Mild Steel Pipe/Tank etc
  • Thus you have the inexpensive nature of steel, and the high thermal and chemical stability of ceramics/glasses (Re: Borosilicate Glass etc)
  • Common Examples in a non-technical use would be Cookware and Traditional "Cast Iron Bathtubs"

To Be Researched

Goals

  • Hopefully this, along with things such as basic controls like use another process etc, engineering controls like this, and Sacrificial Anodes etc could allow basic metals (Like Mild Steel and Aluminum ) to be used in the same manner as Inconel
    • So one could have things like SCWG and various Bio-Petrochemical Reactors be made of appropriate materials (At least somewhat; No Chromium needed etc)
