Duplex Steel is Preferred Over 316L Steel in Process Equipment
By Dr. Hira Ahluwalia
The report, published by Dr. Hira Ahluwalia, a metallurgist with Material Selection Resources ( www.doctormetals.com), documented the improved corrosion resistance, anti-pitting and resistance to chloride-stress cracking properties of duplex 2205. More
Glass Selection for Process Industrial Applications
By Harvey Travers, Engineering Consultant
There are two types of glass commonly used in industrial applications: soda lime glass and borosilicate glass. The two have distinctly different chemical and physical characteristics. More
Compression vs. Fusion in Sight Glass Construction
By Karl Schuller, Herberts Industrieglas GmbH
In sight glass fabrication, fusing glass to metal isn't difficult. What is difficult is achieving high compression. The higher the compression, the stronger and safer the glass. This white paper analyzes the compressive strength of borosilicate glass and soda lime glass, which are commonly used in sight glass construction. More
Trade Names Can Confuse Sight Glass Selection
By Jeff Watkins, New Brunswick Scientific
Buyer beware: a sight glass sold under a trade name that suggests borosilicate glass turns out not to have any boron at all. More
Competitive Claims and Misconceptions About Sight Windows
By Andrew Obertanec, L.J. Star
This paper, submitted by L.J. Star, tries to clear up misinformation in the industry about fused sight glasses. More
