The glass industry is a traditional high energy consumption industry. With the high price of fossil energy and the improvement of environmental protection requirements, smelting technology has changed from traditional flame heating technology to electric smelting technology.
The electrode is a component that is in direct contact with the molten glass and transfers electrical energy to the molten glass. It is an important equipment in glass electrofusion.
Molybdenum electrode has become an indispensable electrode material in glass electrofusion due to its high temperature strength, corrosion resistance and difficulty in making glass coloring. People hope that the service life of the electrode is as long as the kiln age, or even exceeds the kiln age, but in actual use, the electrode is often damaged.
It is of great practical significance to fully understand the various influencing factors on the service life of glass fused molybdenum electrodes.
