در جدیدترین نمایشگاه فناوری های شیشه، شرکت کورنینگ محصول جدیدی به نام شیشه بیدی (Willow Glass) به نمایش گذاشت که در مقایسه با انواع شیشه های دیگر هم خاصیت انعطاف پذیری بسیار بالایی دارد و هم ضخامت آن به نازکی یک ورقه کاغذ است. این شیشه می‌تواند برای ساخت سلول های خورشیدی و روشنایی با کیفیت بالا در گوشی های هوشمند مورد استفاده قرار گیرد.

شیشه بیدی

این شیشه با قدرت انعطاف بالایی که دارد می تواند به شکل لوله ای با شعاع ۲ اینچ درآید. فرآیند صنعتی تولید این شیشه بسیار شبیه فرآیند ساخت کاغذ روزنامه است.

کورنینگ شرکت سازنده شیشه گوریل (Gorilla Glass) است این شیشه کاربرد فراوانی در ساخت صفحه نمایش گوشی های هوشمند دارد.

شیشه بیدی طی فرآیند رول به رول ساخته می شود و مواد تشکیل دهنده آن در دمایی بیش از ۵۰۰ درجه سانتی گراد به عمل می آیند و به شکل استوانه بیرون می آیند نتیجه این فرآیند رونمایی یک ورق شیشه ای انعطاف پذیر و ضد خراش است که ضخامت آن ۱۰۰ میکرون و به نازکی یک ورقه کاغذی است.

نحوه عملکرد این شیشه بیدی استثنایی از طریق لمس کردن سنسورهای لمسی است بنابراین می‌تواند در کنار مدل گوشی های هوشمند خمیده جفت طبیعی مناسبی باشند چون هر دو یک شدت دارند مانند نکسز گالاکسی سامسونگ و اچ تی سی.

کورنینگ بیشتر شیشه هایی را مورد توجه قرار می دهد که بتوانند درتولید سلول های خورشیدی انعطاف پذیر و روشنایی مورد استفاده باشند. با قابلیت پیچ و تاب خوردن بالای این شیشه نوآوری جدیدی از کتاب های الکترونیکی را خواهیم دید که در این کتاب ها به جای استفاده از ورق کاغذی از ورق شیشه ای استفاده می شود.

در تولید عکس ها شیشه بیدی آن قدر توانایی انعطاف دارد که بتواند به لوله ای با شعاع ۲ اینچ تبدیل شود و کیفیت ورقه های پی دی اف نشان می دهد که شیشه بیدی قبل از این که بخواهد فشار قابل توجهی را تحمل کند می تواند به شعاع ۵ سانتی‌متر خم شود و نشکند.

تا زمانی که این محصول وارد بازار شود، شرکت کورینگ تنها نمونه هایی از این مواد را به مشتریان عرضه می‌کند. با این تفاسیر قیمت شیشه های بیدی نباید خیلی بالا باشد. شرکت سازنده این شیشه معتقد است که فرآیند رول به رول شدن در بالا بردن توان شیشه بسیار موثر است.

آيا بخار آب بر آجرهاي سيليسي طاق كوره اثر دارد؟

جواب:

Corrosion of refractory silica brick used to line the roof or “crown” of many glass-melting furnaces is a serious problem in furnaces using oxygen-fuel rather than air-fuel mixtures. In this work, we report equilibrium calculations that support a corrosion mechanism in which alkali hydroxide gas (NaOH or KOH), produced by reaction of water vapor in the combustion gas with the molten glass, reacts with the silica brick in the furnace crown to produce an alkali silicate liquid with a composition that depends on the temperature of the crown. Our reported calculations predict the variable-composition liquid-solution corrosion product phase as a function of key furnace variables. Critical thermodynamic data needed for the liquid corrosion product were generated using a modified associate species solution model and critical analysis of thermochemical information found in the literature for the Formula and Formula systems. Excellent agreement with reported Formula and Formula phase diagrams and with experimentally measured activities for Formula and Formula is achieved. The results of our current calculations are for temperatures between 1273 and 1973 K (1000-1700°C) under either air-fired or oxy-fired conditions, and are used to define a “critical temperature,” above which corrosion is not expected to occur for a given NaOH(g) or KOH(g) partial pressure. © 2001 The Electrochemical Society.

tweels in sodium silicate glass chemistry
GLASS TECHNOLOGY & FLOW CONTROL ENVIRONMENT

Even If float technology has been developed and explored in details, the requirement of new and more aggressive glasses is incremental to the expected length of float sequences. The extension of the furnace life through dedicated chemistries and long casting sequences is pushing the working environment to more extreme service conditions.


Glass flow control remains a strong demand for quality solution, and should be considered with attention in the global scope of the refractory selection. Tweels as flat arches and joints have to be determined in the light of the glassmaker experience and glass requirement. It is now well accepted to look with close attention on the glass handling in the annealing zone, but most of the time little is done to understand the furnace to working zone containment.

We present here, some of the considerations for the engineering of the flow control.

The observation of the physical barrier installed between the melting zone and the tin bath, is a unique mechanism within the furnace, designed to ensure both the atmosphere containment and the glass flow regulation. A more precise description of the environment is necessary to understand the specific requirement of the tin bath entry, and be able to make recommendation for each glassmaking operation.

High glass flow pressure: destabilize the tweel position when the channel design relies strictly on the mechanical fixation of the tweel.

High temperature: typically coming from the requirement of higher viscosity glass. Aggressive vapors: with a high pressure tin bath control, and high temperature gradientwithin the tin bath furnace. Typically involved when looking for thin or special glasses. Leaks around the flow control parts, as encountered for older floats or poor designs generally observed when non adequate refractories have been used.

The float environment induces a strict application of the service conditions for refractoriesthat are maintaining the atmosphere over the tin metal. In addition of atmosphere control we have also the consideration for glass flow control that takes place.

A common understanding is conducting the selection of the refractory environment as a consideration of thermal stability in the tin bath, letting the atmosphere containment to the different curtains and screens function. However, it should be considered the extreme condition of the flow control under the gaseous pressure typically observed in the end zone of the bath.



Global reducing pressure generated for the control of metallic quality, is creating an extreme thermal and chemical situation for the glass flow control tools (tweels, flat arches & joints. The mechanical pressure from the glass flow is conter reacting with the gas over pressure exerted in the tin bath side. The equilibrium between the two opposite pressures in generally in favor of the mechanical force that lead the vertical flow control of the tweel to be following the minimum stress pattern of the glass. Under severe working conditions (temperature, glass output, thin glass), the tweel could be submitted to high stresses, conducting to multiple situations.

1- Atmosphere leaks
2- Thermal losses
3- Glass leaks
4- Physical distortion
5- Breakages
6- Chemical & mechanical erosion
7- Condensations

The observation of the tweel should be conducted to understand the different solicitations zones present in the refractory barrage and analyze the glass tank operation for highest glass quality output. The junction between the tweel and the refractory superstructure plays a key role in the containment performance. Each glass plant should be recognized for the ability to maintain consistent operating conditions over the length of the float process, whatever glass characteristics are required.

Adaptation of the moving tweel and near refractories should lead to the selection of the working conditions. Changes in the product service or unusual working behavior should be traced back to the quality of the seal and the conditioning of the ceramic parts. Little mistake is acceptable for the flow control environment, which remains a key tool of glass quality on the long run of the glass production, and that will require full attention at all steps of the application;



A: mechanical fixation (low temperature)
B: structural zone (400-200°c)
C: condensation zone (600-400°c)
D: condensation zone (800-600°c)
E: condensation zone (1100-800°c)

Chemical reactions
On a stable working condition the vapor species are conditioning the surface reactions between the ceramics and gaseous phases. Most evident reactions are involving not only alkalis but also destabilization agents. The chemical reactions are pushing for metastable phases in the surface of condensation, linked to the concentration and temperature of the reaction. The observation of trydimite and crystobalite being indicative of glass condensation as well as secondary species from the bath or atmosphere. Reducing or oxidizing conditions in the ceramic near environment determine the level of reactivity and could impact on a stronger discrimination of glass float working parameters; However, we should always consider the condensation as a part of the glass atmosphere containment
and reduce the reactivity of the fused silica by controlling the temperature at the same time than controlling the glass operation.

Atmosphere around the tweel is controlled by the metallic bath in the glass environment, but is also submitted to oxide to sulfur & metal ratio changes in function of the real working conditions implied by the operation. We can develop either unbalanced chemistry when glass output or chemistry changes are required in the manufacturing. Most of the observations are leading to the creation of unstable chemical species under the thermal gradient generated at the barrage; In most scenarios we will observe some condensations around the flat arches, that are influencing the global perception of the tweel efficiency. A global understanding of the environment capabilities should be collected in order to adjust the operation, maintain clean working conditions. As we can analyze from the diagram, the phase stability is directly linked to the temperature when considering a closed reactions, but such environment will be submitted to more rapid degradation as soon as atmosphere conditions are changing. All equilibrium will then be controlled by dual thermal and atmospheric species, giving a complex and evolving condition that will directly influence the glass control and quality.

Quality tweels are based on high-grade fused silica to avoid both chemical and thermal stresses in the glass environment; Some of the structural and chemical characteristics of the parts cannot be described in our document, but stays critical to the operation. A structural approach of the tweel could be conducted for the selection of the design. Inherent chemical structure is described as a function of the thermal requirement, but we should keep in mind that chemical observations need also to be conducted for the correct selection of materials and operating parameters.

Conclusion:

Tweels and atmosphere containment are critical to the glass float operation by providing high quality glass flow control, atmosphere control, chemical and thermal stability between the hot zone and the tin bath. Most extreme service conditions could be observed in recent operations when extension of the refractory life is going with more difficult glass chemistries and thin glass requirement; Interdependence between the flow control design and glass operation requires a good understanding of the glass chemistry and high cooperation between glass and refractory partners. High quality glass should push even further the need for high ceramic requirement, and enhance the development for higher quality standards.

A recent study of post-campaign AZS refractory blocks from three types of glass melting furnaces is providing a better understanding of the link between AZS refractory corrosion and glass defects.
Glass defects such as bubbles, stones, knots and cords originate from many sources, including poor melting and/or refining of glass, as well as refractory quality and degradation. The published literature often cites alumina-zirconia-silica (AZS) refractory exudation as the leading cause of knot and cord defects. However, one study of the origin of knot defects in TV glass showed that AZS refractory exudation is only a short-term source of glass defects, while AZS refractory corrosion, especially in the superstructure, is a more potent and long-term source of defects.1

Very little information exists in published literature on defect chemistry and frequency as a function of furnace age and AZS reuse, so researchers at Vesuvius Monofrax, Inc. attempted to correlate glass defect chemistry with AZS refractories of varying ages. They analyzed post-campaign AZS refractory blocks from three types of glass melting furnaces: a soda-lime container furnace, a soda-lime tubing furnace and a lead silicate TV funnel furnace. The results of this study are providing a better understanding of the link between AZS refractory corrosion and glass defects.

Figure 1. A 34% ZrO2 AZS superstructure (left and inset) and glass contact block (far right) after a 10-year campaign in a soda-lime container furnace.

Soda-Lime Container Furnace, 10-Year Campaign

Figure 1 shows an AZS superstructure (left and inset) and a glass contact refractory block (right) taken from a soda-lime container furnace following a 10-year campaign. While the glass contact block reveals rounded edges from corrosion and a shiny surface due to glass adhering to the refractory, the superstructure refractory appears to be dry on the surface, has relatively sharp edges and shows a whitish crust on the entire exposed hot face. The glass contact block appears to have come from below the metal line.

The holes in the blocks are from drilling core samples for characterization. Polished sections for microscopy were prepared from the core samples. The chemistry and microstructure were analyzed as a function of depth using SEM/EDS techniques. In addition, physical properties such as the bulk density and the apparent porosity were also measured as a function of depth.

Figure 2. The matrix phase chemistry as a function of depth for both the glass contact and superstructure AZS refractory samples from the soda-lime container furnace. The photomicrographs show a corrosion depth of ~150 mm in the superstructure block compared to ~50 mm at the glass contact.
The lower portion of Figure 2 shows SEM/BSE photomicrographs of the glass contact interface and superstructure hot face. The microstructure of both types of samples shows a near absence of the crystalline alumina phase. Both the superstructure and glass contact AZS samples were found to contain a nephelitic zone where the zirconia is no longer in solution in the glassy phase; instead, it exists as discrete zirconia crystals. This nephelitic zone extends to greater depth in the superstructure than in the glass contact interface.

The chart on the upper portion of Figure 2 shows the matrix phase chemistry as a function of depth for both the glass contact and superstructure AZS refractory samples. Both samples exhibit similar changes in chemistry-i.e., an increase in the concentration of the alkali/alkaline earth species, an increase in the alumina concentration and a decrease in the concentration of silica. However, the superstructure refractory sample shows a greater depth of chemical change than the glass contact sample. An example of this is the depth of the nephelitic zone, mentioned above, which was found to be greater in the superstructure sample than in the glass contact sample.

The results shown in Figure 2 suggest that the glass contact refractory corrosion lessens with time, while the superstructure corrosion continues over the life of the furnace campaign.

Figure 3. A glass contact block (AZS sidewall and superstructure) after a five-year campaign in a soda-lime tubing furnace. Inset: A viscous knot from the soda-lime tubing furnace.

Soda-Lime Tubing Furnace, Five-Year Campaign

Figure 3 shows a photo of an AZS glass-contact sidewall block obtained from a soda-lime glass tubing furnace following a five-year campaign. The inset photo shows a viscous knot glass defect also obtained from this tubing furnace. In addition to analyzing the chemical, physical and microstructural changes in the refractory block, researchers also analyzed the glass defect to determine if its source was the glass-contact AZS refractory.
Figure 4. The matrix phase as a function of depth in the AZS block. The open symbols represent the cord chemistry. (The absence of ZrO2 in the cord is indicative of a non-AZS source.) The photomicrograph shows the microstructure of the AZS block at the glass/refractory interface.
The SEM/BSE photomicrograph shown in the lower portion of Figure 4 displays the microstructure of the AZS block at the glass/refractory interface. The changes in the AZS microstructure are similar to those found in the soda-lime container furnace. The crystalline alumina phase is essentially absent in the micrograph.

The chart in the upper portion shows the chemical analysis of the matrix phase (glassy in the as-is AZS refractory) as a function of depth in the AZS block. The chemistry of this tubing glass is similar to that of the soda-lime container glass described previously, and the chemistry profile of the AZS block was found to be similar to that seen in the container glass tank. The alkali/alkaline earth and alumina contents increased, while the silica content decreased in the matrix toward the glass/refractory interface. This resulted in the formation of a nephelitic matrix phase.

Figure 5. A comparison of the depth of corrosion in the glass contact AZS blocks taken from the container and tubing furnaces.
The chart also shows the chemistry of the viscous knot defect, represented by open symbols at an arbitrary position of -5 mm from the glass/refractory interface. The lack of ZrO2 in the cord chemistry strongly suggests a non-AZS cord source.

Figure 5 compares the depth of corrosion in the glass contact AZS blocks taken from the container and tubing furnaces. Though the corrosion depth is greater in the container furnace, this could be due to the differences in the campaign durations (10 years for the container vs. 5 years for the tubing), location in the furnace and temperature.

Figure 6. An evaluation of an AZS superstructure core sample from the charge end wall of a TV funnel furnace after a four-year campaign.

TV Funnel Furnace, Four-Year Campaign

The third post-campaign AZS refractory sample was obtained from a TV funnel furnace after approximately four years of service. A core sample, B1 as shown in Figure 6, was drilled from the center of the charge end superstructure wall. The extensive rundown seen on the wall is most likely due to the corrosion of the AZS blocks, which was accelerated by the inevitable presence of batch dust in the charge end area. A cross section of the core sample (top right photo) shows a tear running from the hot face into the block interior, and a change in the color of the refractory.

The chart in Figure 7 displays the concentration of all alkali and alkaline earth species in the B1 core sample as a function of depth. The chemical analysis was performed using SEM/EDS in the line scan mode at a low magnification. This method allows bulk chemical analysis at a known depth into the sample. The chart compares the alkali and alkaline earth concentration of the exposed AZS sample to the concentration of the same species in the as-is AZS refractory. There is a significantly higher concentration of the analyzed species up to at least 50 mm.
Figure 8. Reflected light images of AZS samples obtained from the charge end of the TV funnel furnace.
A series of reflected light photomicrographs were collected from the polished samples; two of these photomicrographs are shown in Figure 8. A complex array of phases has formed due to the chemical changes in the AZS block. The in-diffusion of alkaline and alkaline earth species (potassium, sodium and magnesium) with the concomitant dissolution of crystalline alumina into the matrix has resulted in the creation of new crystalline phases such as nepheline, kalsilite, leucite and beta-alumina.

Summary of Results

Table 1 summarizes the depth of corrosion measured in all the AZS samples discussed in this article. While the numbers shown in the table are not meant to be used for calculating the rate of corrosion of glass contact and superstructure AZS refractories, the trend observed here supports the conclusion that superstructure AZS undergoes a greater degree of chemical change than the glass contact AZS below the metal line. All other variables being equal, this data therefore suggests that superstructure corrosion can continue as the furnace ages, while glass melt contact corrosion (below the metal line) can slow down with the age of the furnace.

In addition to studying the corrosion behavior, researchers also measured changes in the physical properties of the post-campaign AZS samples. The level of apparent porosity was, in general, higher than that seen in the as-is AZS. This increase is most likely due to the formation of new crystalline phases (that can be higher in density and thus lower in volume) at the expense of the glassy phase, and also from liquid phase rundown from the refractory surface into the glass bath.

AZS Corrosion and Glass Defect Formation

Figure 9 explores a correlation between the AZS refractory corrosion and knot/cord-type glass defects. To create this chart, researchers plotted the chemistry of all knot and cord defects analyzed at the Monofrax Technical Center within the last five years. The chart compares the ZrO22O3/ZrO2 molar ratio of the defects. When assigning the most likely origin of the defect-i.e., superstructure or melt contact AZS corrosion-the researchers used the chemistry of the AZS refractory samples discussed in this article, as well as many other samples available in their database. concentration with the Al

The defect represented by a triangle symbol in Area 1 is believed to have definitely originated from the melt contact corrosion of AZS refractories. The defects represented by square symbols in Area 3 are believed to have definitely originated from the superstructure corrosion of AZS refractories. Defects noted in Areas 2 and 4 represent some uncertainty about the source; however, the defects in Area 2 are most likely from an AZS melt contact source, and the defects in Area 4 are most likely from an AZS superstructure source.

Since the defects shown in this chart came from furnaces melting many types of glass chemistries, and the majority of the defects appear to have originated from superstructure AZS corrosion, it seems logical to conclude that glass defect formation continues as a given glass melting furnace ages.

Minimizing Defects

Based on the studies described in this article, it is evident that both short- and long-term corrosion mechanisms are similar. Glass melt contact refractory corrosion can lessen with time due to boundary layer formation and the effect of external cooling at the metal line. Superstructure refractory corrosion, however, can continue through the entire campaign duration, as evidenced by the soda-lime container tank study, where the corrosion depth was ~50 mm glass contact and ~150 mm superstructure.

Post-campaign refractory evaluation has also shown an increase in apparent porosity, which may be due to the formation of new phases and/or a matrix (liquid) phase rundown. The chemistry of both knots and cords appears similar to the AZS hot face chemistry following corrosion. Though both glass contact and superstructure corrosion products can lead to knot/cord defects, superstructure corrosion is a more potent and long-term source of defects. Additionally, used AZS can contain new crystalline phases such as nepheline, kalsilite, leucite, beta-alumina and zircon. And a mismatch in the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) with unaltered AZS may lead to spalling, which can also cause defects.

As mentioned earlier, the glassy matrix phase in AZS (which is effectively 1/3 of the total volume) provides large pathways for the corrosive alkaline and alkaline earth species to diffuse into the body of the refractory. This in-diffusion promotes the dissolution of crystalline alumina, resulting in an expansion of the glassy phase volume. The data from post-campaign AZS superstructure blocks show significant chemical alteration of the glassy phase in up to several inches of the block thickness.

Given that the majority of the knot and cord defects analyzed at Monofrax are similar in chemistry to that of the AZS glassy phase following superstructure corrosion, and that AZS superstructure corrosion can progress over the life of the furnace campaign, it is reasonable to conclude that superstructure AZS corrosion is an ongoing source of glass defects. However, the rate of defect generation is a more complex issue and depends on many other factors besides refractory degradation. These factors include furnace temperature profile, throughput and furnace exhaust control, which were not analyzed in this study.

Obtaining a correlation between glass defect frequency and furnace variables would require meticulous recordkeeping of the furnace process conditions and defect levels throughout the furnace campaign. Glass manufacturers can either engage in this type of long-term study, or find alternatives to reduce defects based on the current understanding of refractory degradation.

There is no doubt that all AZS refractories experience an expansion of the glassy phase volume due to superstructure corrosion and can therefore serve as a source of liquid phase rundown, promoting glass defects. Therefore, the best solution would be to avoid using AZS refractories in the superstructure lining of airfuel furnaces altogether.

One suitable alternative is a fusion-cast alpha-beta alumina refractory, which contains a very small amount of crystalline boundary phase (~2% by volume) bearing nepheline-type chemistry. Comparative studies of AZS and alpha-beta alumina refractories superstructure corrosion in airfuel and oxyfuel furnaces have shown significantly lower chemical alteration of the alpha-beta alumina than that seen in AZS. Furthermore, over the last 10 years, alpha-beta alumina refractories have been successfully used in the crown and superstructure of oxyfuel-fired glass melting furnaces, showing excellent physical and chemical stability over multiple campaigns.

By understanding how glass defects occur, manufacturers can take the appropriate steps to minimize these defects and improve glass quality.
