Iron Sealing Glass Powder: The Key to High-Performance Sealing Solutions in Extreme Environments
Release time：2025-06-16
This blog will analyze how iron sealing glass powder provides "unbreakable" sealing protection from the perspectives of application scenarios, technical advantages, and procurement decisions.
Introduction: When Industrial Demands Meet Material Innovation
In the realm of industrial manufacturing, the applications of glass powder have long transcended traditional boundaries. Especially in scenarios that demand resistance to high voltage, extreme temperatures, and harsh corrosion, the choice of professional-grade sealing materials directly impacts equipment reliability and lifespan. As an innovator in special inorganic materials, Sinopride (www.spcera.net) has developed Iron Sealing Glass Powder, a material that stands out with precise performance parameters and scenario-based solutions. It has become the preferred sealing material for critical components such as connectors, sensors, and battery caps.
I. Iron Sealing Glass Powder: The Expert in Extreme Environment Sealing
1.1 What is Iron Sealing Glass Powder?
Iron sealing glass powder is a functional powder material specifically designed for metal sealing. By precisely controlling the composition of the glass system (such as the SiO₂-Na₂O-K₂O system), it matches the thermal expansion coefficient of ferrous metals, forming a dense, pore-free sealing layer after sintering. Sinopride ' iron sealing glass powder boasts properties like high resistivity (>500 MΩ), resistance to 1500°C high temperature, and strong acid corrosion resistance. Core models such as ST015 and ST408 have passed international standard certifications, with performance comparable to imported products like Japan's RT-1 and the US 13#.

II. Scenario-based Applications: Full Scenario Coverage from Lab to Industrial Field
2.1 High-Voltage Environments: The "Safety Barrier" for Electrical Equipment
2.1.1 Insulation Sealing for Power Transformers
In high-voltage transformers of 110kV and above, insulation sealing between windings is crucial to prevent arc breakdown. After sintering at 930~950°C, Sinopride ' ST015 iron sealing glass powder forms a glass sealing layer with a resistivity >500 MΩ between copper windings and the iron core, effectively preventing electrical leakage. After a power equipment manufacturer adopted this material, the transformer failure rate decreased by 72%, and maintenance costs were reduced by 40%.
2.1.2 Contact Protection for High-Voltage Switchgear
High-voltage switches generate strong arcs during opening and closing. Ordinary sealing materials are prone to aging and cracking. With a thermal expansion coefficient of 10.5±0.5×10⁻⁷/°C, ST408 iron sealing glass powder expands and contracts synchronously with the iron-nickel alloy base of the switch contacts, achieving an opening and closing life of over 300,000 times in 110kV switchgear, far exceeding the industry average.
2.2 High-Temperature Scenarios: The "Heat-Resistant Guard" for Aerospace and Industrial Furnaces
2.2.1 Turbine Blade Sealing for Aerospace Engines
The combustion chamber temperature of aerospace engines can reach over 1200°C. With a low thermal expansion coefficient of 9.6±0.5×10⁻⁷/°C, SH604 iron sealing glass powder forms a thermal shock-resistant sealing layer between turbine blades and the metal base. Tested to withstand 5000 thermal cycles (-50°C~1200°C) without cracking, it has been applied in a certain commercial aerospace engine model.
2.2.2 Furnace Door Sealing for Industrial Kilns
In steel annealing furnaces operating at 1500°C, traditional graphite seals need replacement every three months. The glass-ceramic sealing layer formed by Sinopride ' iron sealing glass powder can be used continuously for more than two years. Moreover, its thermal conductivity is only 1/20 that of metal, helping a steel plant save 15% in annual energy consumption.
2.3 Strong Corrosion Environments: The "Protective Armor" for Chemical and Marine Engineering
2.3.1 Anti-Corrosion Sealing for Lithium Thionyl Chloride Battery Caps
The electrolyte of lithium thionyl chloride batteries (thionyl chloride) is highly corrosive. After sintering at 930~980°C, SH604 iron sealing glass powder forms a dense protective layer in battery caps, with a leakage rate <1×10⁻⁹ Pa·m³/s and a resistance >500 MΩ. It has been supplied in bulk to leading battery manufacturers like EVE Energy.
2.3.2 Salt Spray Protection for Marine Engineering
In an offshore wind power project in the South China Sea, after using iron sealing glass powder to seal the cable joints of wind turbines, no rust was found after 5000 hours of salt spray testing (NaCl concentration 5%). In contrast, traditional rubber seals cracked and leaked after only 1000 hours. This solution reduced the customer's operation and maintenance costs by 60%.
