Types and Texture of Jacketed Glass Reactor Jacketed glass reactor is kinds of advanced chemical equipment which has a wide use in chemical engineering and laboratory(from www.toption-china.com/reactors-and-instrume nts/chemical-synthesis-reactor-ser ies) and this kind of reactor can deal with plenty of reactions. Most of these reactors are made of high borosilicate glass which provides a lot of advantages to the reactor and the stable chemical characteristics of this glass texture help the reactor to provide smooth and stable reaction process. Due to the different reaction process, different types of reactors are manufactured. All the reactors can be used to realize single phase reaction and heterogeneous reactor and the reacto r with jacket has the same functions. Generally, most of reactor has stirring apparatus set in the reaction vessel and it can provide smooth and stable stirring process during the reaction. If users use the reactor which has larger high diameter, multilayer stirring blade should be matched to the reactor. If the reaction material needed to be heated or cooled, the jacket on the reaction vessel can give play to its function. Besides, outer loop can also be used to heat transfer process and improve the reaction efficiency. Actually, before the reactor coming into the market, there were many other equipment which can also has the same function of reaction and the using history of this kind of equipment can be trace to ancient China such as the kiln which can be regarded as the original form of reactor. The reactors we see nowadays also have various forms in modern industry just like the blast furnace and the fermentation cylinder which used in bioengineering. Normally, the common reactor used in chemical engineering can be divided into six kinds which include tubular reactor, tank reactor, reactor with solid particle bed, tower reactor, jet reactor and other non typical reactors. The reactor with jacket we referred on above is a number of tank reactors. We can say that most of the advantages of the reactor are profited from its specific texture such as high borosilicate glass and glass lining. High borosilicate glass is the advanced glass texture which is made by fusing glass with internal heating under high temperature. This kind of glass texture possesses plenty of advantages such as low expansion rate, high strength and high chemical stability and it can keep the original chemical characteristics no matter act under high or low temperature conditions.
