(1) An oven-like apparatus for use in yarn heatsetting operations Under pressure in a superheated steam atmosphere, yarn is given a "memory" of its twist Autoclave heatsetting is a batch, not a continuous, method (2) An apparatus for making polymer under heat and pressure
a device for heating substances above their boiling point; used to manufacture chemicals or to sterilize surgical instruments
Vessel for heating materials under high steam pressure Used for sterilization and other applications
A device designed to sterilize equipment or biological waste using heat, steam and pressure within a chamber
A closed vessel for producing an environment of fluid pressure, with or without heat, to an enclosed object which is undergoing a chemical reaction or other operation
{i} pressure cooker; sterilizer, apparatus used to heat substances above the boiling point; boiler with an automatic closing mechanism
an apparatus using superheated high pressure steam for sterilization, vulcanization and other processes
An airtight vessel for heating and sometimes agitating its contents under high steam pressure; used for industrial processing, sterilization and cooking with moist or dry heat at high temperatures Silicate glasses can be dissolved in water using this technique
Vessel in which chemical reactions are carried out under pressure PVC autoclaves are equipped with a system for stirring
Vessel, usually of steel, able to withstand high temperatures and pressures. The chemical industry uses various types of autoclaves in manufacturing dyes and in other chemical reactions requiring high pressures. In bacteriology and medicine, instruments, equipment, supplies, and culture media are sterilized by superheated steam in an autoclave. In 1679 Denis Papin (1647- 1712) invented a prototype known as a steam digester; still used in cooking, it is now called a pressure cooker
A device to expose items to steam at a high pressure in order to decontaminate the materials or render them sterile
a device for heating substances above their boiling point; used to manufacture chemicals or to sterilize surgical instruments subject to the action of an autoclave
a closed strong vessel for conducting chemical reactions under high pressure and temperature
A heavy steel vessel in which rubber articles are vulcanized by means of steam and/or hot air and under pressure
