Glass for medical and technical purposes, like borosilicate glass, crystal glass/lead glass and several other special items belong to this group. We offer a variety of ceramically bound refractory solutions for these special melting aggregates, including isostatically pressed special products for the manufacture of TFT-LCD substrate glasses by the downdraw overflow procedure.
Since TFT-LCD displays have started replacing CRT, production of TFT-LCD glass substrates has witnessed continuous double digit annual market growth. Forming glass substrates by overflow fusion process outperforms the float glass process so far. The size of TFT-LCD display glass is becoming larger year by year, thereby, driving the demand for high-end quality refractory materials and new products. Embracing these market trends, and taking up these challenges, P-D Refractories is responding successfully by demonstrating its attained capabilities to manufacture and machine ultra-large, complex shapes of refractory materials such as trough made of isostatically pressed dense Zircon – one of P-D’s strategic cornerstones of innovative product development. Following years of sustained technical efforts, P-D Refractories has developed the ability to provide trough, these indispensible key components, meeting the stringent requirements and applied strict standards of precision, demanded by the display glass industry.
