Borosilicate Glass Capillary Tube Description
Borosilicate Glass Capillary Tubes are made from a special glass
composition containing silica (SiO₂), boron trioxide (B₂O₃), and sodium oxide
(Na₂O), offering superior thermal stability and resistance to temperature
fluctuations. This glass type is commonly used in laboratory and industrial
environments for applications requiring precision and durability. Borosilicate
glass is well-known for its ability to withstand high temperatures, making it
ideal for use in processes that involve heating and cooling. Additionally, its
excellent chemical resistance ensures long-lasting performance in harsh
environments. The capillary tube form ensures precision handling and is
commonly employed in fluid dynamics and optical applications.
