Gas seal in planar stack is a major issue to be addressed. High temperature operation and thermal cycling leads to the failure of gas sealing. Glass-metal composites may work as good sealing material. 

Cross-linked polyester composites have a relatively low coefficient of thermal conductivity that can provide beneficial property retention in thick laminates at high temperatures as well as remove the need for secondary insulation. The coefficient of thermal expansion of glass-reinforced composites is similar to aluminum but higher than most common metals.

Composite Modulus of Elasticity. The modulus of elasticity of the enamel glass-steel composite system has been shown to lie between the modulus of the glass and that of the metal. The composite modulus can be calculated by Er = ( , - Ef)Q + E where E,. E . and E, are the modulus of elasticity of the composite, the metal, and the enamel, respectively and Q = thickness of the metal divided by total thickness of the composite.
