GLASSTEK

Electrodes made of molybdenum are used for the melting of glass by means of electrical energy. Plansee molybdenum electrodes have many advantageous properties: high purity, good form stability and high corrosion resistance to molten glass as well as a good electrical and thermal conductivity. Standard sizes are available from stock. Plansee supplies glass melting electrodes made from MoZrO2 for glass production involving particularly aggressive glass melts. Small quantities of zirconium oxide (ZrO2) added to molybdenum enhance the properties of the pure material.
