Autoclaves, which are widely used in the medical field, are used to sterilize equipment that comes into contact with the human body and liquids such as serum. Sterilization required additional measures, especially due to the Covid-19 outbreak. The sterilization process neutralizes bacteria and spores at high temperatures, thanks to the high pressure in the autoclave.
Autoclaves are pressure vessels that provide high temperature heat treatment for a period of time and are manufactured to withstand high pressures and high temperatures. It is often used in food production, for sterilizing glass and metal containers. In addition, current health legislation requires manufacturers to use these autoclaves for pasteurization and sterilization of packaged food. Thus, the use of autoclaves helps to preserve food in the best possible way while eliminating harmful bacteria and microorganisms.
Autoclave is used in the fixation process in the textile industry. The fixation process is carried out to increase the quality of the yarn raw material used in the textile industry with the effect of steam pressure and temperature. By removing the deformation effects in the yarn raw material, quality problems in the ongoing stages are eliminated. After the autoclave process, the yarn raw material becomes smooth and tough and ensures high quality products in the next processes.
Laminated glass is obtained as a result of curing in autoclave by placing PVB (Polyvinyl Butyral) film or its derivatives after cleaning two or more glasses. In addition to lamination of flat or tempered glass, the process of obtaining bulletproof glass is also achieved through the autoclave process. The full realization of the polymerization process in the autoclave process, that is, the success of the lamination process, depends on the equipment of the autoclave.
When an autoclave is used for wood impregnation, the wood will last longer without affecting the natural appearance or content of the wood. The autoclave process is an environmentally friendly choice for preserving wood. This process is perfect for constructing beautiful buildings, homes and other structures that increase wood`s durability in the elements while preserving its natural beauty.
