When it comes to reaction vessels, many people may be unfamiliar with them. What exactly is a reaction vessel, and where is it used? For most non‑specialists, the concept can be quite confusing. Below, we’ll provide a brief overview of what a reaction vessel is and where it finds application. 
A reactor consists of a vessel body, a vessel head, a jacket, an agitator, a drive unit, a shaft seal assembly, and supporting structures. In a broad sense, it is a vessel in which physical or chemical reactions take place; through appropriate structural design and parameter configuration, it can meet process requirements for heating and mixing, hydrolysis, neutralization, distillation, evaporation, crystallization, storage, hydrogenation, hydrocarbonization, polymerization, constant‑temperature reaction, cooling, as well as high‑ and low‑speed mixing. Because the pressure conditions during the reaction impose varying design constraints, reactor designs and parameters are typically tailored to specific production processes and operating conditions, making most reactors non‑standard equipment. Based on the materials used, they are generally classified into stainless steel reactors, carbon steel reactors, and enameled (glass‑lined) reactors.
Next, let’s take a closer look at stainless steel reaction vessels. The parts of these vessels that come into contact with process materials are all fabricated from stainless steels such as 304 or 316L, making them widely used in manufacturing sectors—including pharmaceuticals, building materials, chemicals, pigments, resins, and food—as well as in various research and experimental projects. They feature rapid heating, high‑temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, hygienic design, zero environmental pollution, the elimination of the need for a boiler, automatic temperature control, and ease of operation. To meet diverse market demands, Jiangsu Zhengheng has also introduced specialized models—such as stainless steel chemical reaction vessels, electrically heated reaction vessels, steam‑heated reaction vessels, and vacuum dispersion reaction vessels—tailored to the specific requirements of different manufacturers.
