Description
Industrial FRP Chemical Reactor Vessel Manufacturer in Gujarat
Nikunj Fibre Glass is a leading manufacturer and exporter of FRP Reactors (Fiberglass Chemical Reaction Vessels) based in Vapi, Gujarat. Designed specifically for corrosive chemical reactions, liquid-liquid mixing, acid neutralization, crystallization, and polymerization, our FRP reactors provide a cost-effective, long-lasting alternative to exotic alloy or glass-lined steel vessels.
Fabricated using heavy-duty Vinyl Ester (Derakane 411/470) and Bisphenol resins, our reaction vessels withstand elevated reaction temperatures and severe chemical attack from hot mineral acids, chlorine, and organic compounds.
Key Features & Advantages
- Rigid Agitator Bridge Mount: Heavily reinforced structural top head designed to support motor, reduction gearbox, and agitator shaft without mechanical deflection.
- Integral Internal Baffles: Seamlessly molded internal FRP anti-swirl baffles provide superior mixing homogeneity and mass transfer.
- Jacketed Heating/Cooling: Available with external FRP dimpled or half-pipe jackets for circulating chilled water, cooling brine, or hot oil.
- Thermowell & Dip Pipe Integration: PTFE/FRP lined dip pipes for submerged liquid feed and protective thermowells for RTD temperature sensors.
- Exceptional Thermal Shock Resistance: Composite walls absorb exothermic temperature spikes without cracking or lining delamination.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Can FRP reactors replace glass-lined steel (GLS) reactors?
Yes, for applications involving non-oxidizing acids, hydrochloric acid, and hydrofluoric acid at temperatures up to 110°C, FRP reactors provide an indestructible, thermal-shock-resistant solution at a fraction of GLS cost.
Q2: How are agitator vibrations absorbed by the FRP vessel?
Our engineering team incorporates heavy gusseted steel bridge frames laminated into the top head structure, distributing dynamic torque and vibrations safely into vessel support legs.
