[0003] forming temperature of the glass ribbon in the float bath in the normal 1,100 to 600 ° C. in <br/> saw Dara Lim composition is in the range of 10 3.5 to 10 11.5 poise expressed in viscosity. At this time, the temperature of the hanger is 900 ° C. at the maximum. Recently high strain point glass around the electronics, expanded low expansion glass applications, it has been attempted to mold saw Dara Imugarasu other example borosilicate glass, aluminosilicate glass by a float process.

However, these glasses generally viscosity is high, in order to match the above viscosity at the molding region, it is necessary to increase the 100 to 200 ° C. temperature than the saw Dara Lee <br/> Mugarasu . As a result, the temperature of the hanger is also 1000-1100.
℃ to rise to. The austenitic chromium-nickel steel constituting the hanger reacts with N 2 gas supplied to the bath at 1000 ° C. or higher to prevent oxidation of the tin bath and generates Cr 2 N. Since the solubility of Cr 2 N is low, Cr 2 N precipitates with the progress of the reaction and causes embrittlement of the whole. As a result, since the glass breaks in a much shorter time than normal heat-resistant creep, there has been a problem that long-term operation is impossible to produce the glass.

The silicon nitride and silicon carbide are particularly effective because
This is thought to be because the form is a covalent bond form, which is different from the ionic bond form of general inorganic compounds. Covalent bonds are extremely stable at high temperatures due to their strong binding strength,
0 ℃ nitriding reaction even at temperature conditions occur without the nitride embrittlement fear Do the Most simultaneously, have high-temperature tensile strength, high temperature creep characteristics, the characteristics to be provided in the hanger. As a result, by applying a hanger made of silicon nitride or silicon carbide to a float glass manufacturing apparatus for forming a high strain point glass and a low expansion glass, a long-term continuous operation, which has not been obtained so far, becomes possible.
