The results of an investigation of glass formation on frit production by mans of induction heating are presented. According to x-ray phase analysis, the resulting frit is completely amorphous. The frit meets standard spreadability requirements — 45 mm and linear thermal expansion coefficient [LTEC] 120 × 10–7 K–1. The enamel coating has a high chemical resistance to acids and alkalis. A comparative analysis of frit synthesis in a laboratory electric furnace by means of induction heating demonstrated that the frit induction melting time is reduced by two-fold, energy consumption is reduced by 23%, and the process efficiency is increased on average by four-fold.
