Borosilicate Glass Sheet Description
Borosilicate Glass Sheets are designed for applications that require high
thermal stability and excellent resistance to chemical attack. This material is
composed primarily of silica (SiO₂) with boron oxide (B₂O₃) and sodium oxide
(Na₂O), making it ideal for use in scientific glassware, laboratory equipment,
and industrial settings. It has an impressive thermal resistance, allowing it
to withstand significant temperature fluctuations without cracking or breaking.
The high transparency and clarity make it suitable for optical and precision
applications, ensuring superior performance in a variety of demanding
environments.
Borosilicate Glass Sheet Applications

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Borosilicate Glass?
- Borosilicate glass is a type of glass made with silica and
boron trioxide. It's known for its thermal and chemical resistance.
Can Borosilicate Glass withstand high temperatures?
- Yes, borosilicate glass has a high melting point of
approximately 820°C, making it resistant to thermal shock.
Is Borosilicate Glass shatterproof?
- While borosilicate glass is highly durable and resistant
to breaking, it is not completely shatterproof. It is designed to
withstand high temperatures and stresses better than regular glass.
What makes Borosilicate Glass ideal for optical applications?
- Its high transparency and minimal distortion make it
perfect for optical instruments and lenses.
