Glass Lined Evaporation

Glass lined evaporators are used for highly corrosive products where special chrome-nickel alloys or special construction materials such as titanium or tantalum are not suitable or economic.

For processing heat-sensitive products at high vacuum and short residence times, VTA offers wiped film and short path evaporation technology with product wetted parts made of enamel (glass lined) and PTFE material.
