Borosilicate glass
Widely used in chemistry and industry
Aachener Quarzglas manufactures high-precision borosilicate glass products for laboratory, chemical, and industrial applications, featuring excellent resistance to temperature and chemicals.
Borosilicate glass is a type of technical glass named after its two main components: silicon dioxide (SiO₂) and boron trioxide (B₂O₃).
Due to its resistance to high temperatures and chemicals, borosilicate glass is used in the production of equipment and apparatus for laboratory environments and chemical process engineering. It is also applied in various other industrial fields where heat resistance, mechanical strength, and chemical durability are essential.
Material Properties of Borosilicate Glass:
- Excellent temperature resistance
- Outstanding resistance to thermal shock
- Very good resistance to acids
- High resistance to alkalis
