What is the difference between high borosilicate glass and ordinary glass?

Glass is not only transparent and bright, but also has high strength and hardness. It is an indispensable material in daily production and life. Nowadays, there are more and more kinds of glass in the society. In addition to the more common float glass and toughened glass, there are also hot melt glass, laminated glass, ground glass and other varieties with special properties. This kind of glass is called special glass.

What is the difference between high borosilicate glass and ordinary glass?

Ordinary glass is sodium calcium silicon glass, basically does not contain boron. High borosilicate glass (also known as hard glass), is the use of glass in high temperature conditions conductive characteristics, through the internal heating to realize glass melt, processed by advanced production technology, high borosilicate glass highlight the characteristics of the thermal expansion coefficient is the line for 10-6 (3.3 and 0.1) * / K, about a third of the common glass, this feature should reduced due to the temperature gradient The force caused by the effect, thus having stronger fracture resistance.

Here’s an example:In everyday life, we pour boiling water into a glass that has just been filled with cold or ice water, or take ice water from a glass that has just been scalded. Ordinary glass will break immediately because of the temperature stress, but high borosilicate glass will not do this.

In addition to temperature resistance, it is a special glass material with high degree, high hardness, high light transmittance and high chemical stability, so it is also widely used in chemical industry, aerospace, military, family, hospital and other fields.

YANCHENG HUIDA GLASS INSTRUMENTS FACTORY plant production of glass products, including beakers, flasks, measuring cylinder, volumetric flasks, regent bottles, glass test tube, and etc.Many of these products are made of highly borosilicate glass.

We have been exporting our products to many countries, such as US, Canada, Brazil, Germany, Argentina, Peru, Italy, Iran, etc…
