A dry composition comprising 2 to 30 weight percent R.sub.2O (wherein R.sub.2O is an alkali metal oxide, K.sub.2O, Na.sub.2O, Li.sub.2O or mixtures thereof); 10 to 74 weight percent SiO.sub.2; and 23 to 79 weight percent B.sub.2O.sub.3. Aqueous solutions and/or colloidal suspensions (thus referred to as solution-suspensions) are used to blend to give a liquid-binder which, on drying, contains the composition within the range given above in the R.sub.2OSiO.sub.2B.sub.2O.sub.3 system. The dry composition is mixed with sufficient H.sub.2O to form the solution-suspensions. As described herein H.sub.2O may also be present in some additional additive.

A glass lined reaction tank for chemical and pharmaceutical industries and a manufacturing method thereof. One-step molding technical standards for manufacturing iron blanks of the glass lined reaction tanks are deeply developed, an overall structure of a flanged big flange of a tank body and a tank cover matching with the tank body are innovated, and nominal pressure of the big flange and the sealing performance of a tank mouth are perfectly improved. By using a new structurally-combined precise controlled internal heating type electric furnace and an intelligent temperature program control/adjustment/recording instrument, heating temperature of an overall glass lining layer on an inner wall of the tank body is more accurately controlled to be the same, and a synchronous, integral and controlled sintering core technique is realized.

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for in-line thermal flattening and enameling of steel sheets. The systems and methods include an in-line thermal flattening of a feed stock steel sheet and a subsequent enamel coating of the steel sheet. The resulting enamel coated steel sheet has improved flatness compared with other coated steel sheets that are enamel coated but do not undergo the in-line thermal flattening. The systems and methods allow the use of less expensive source materials without sacrificing quality in the finished enameled product.
