Borosilicate glass substrate (SiO2-B2O3)
Borosilicate glass substrates have better thermal shock resistance, high material strength, and strong chemical stability while keeping >90% transmissivity in the visible light spectrum.
We currently store 100 mm x 100 mm x 2 mm substrates. For other sizes and thicknesses or high volume demands, please contact us.
| Thickness | 1mm, 2mm |

Borosilicate glass is chemically resistant, has a low thermal expansion coefficient, and can be used at relatively high temperatures.
Its main benefits are:
- very high chemical resistance
- high operating temperature
- Minimal thermal expansion (3.3 ppm/C)
- High thermal shock resistance
The typical composition contains SiO2 (approx. 80 %), 13 % B2O3 and others (Na2O / K2O, Al2O3)
Our Borosilicate substrates come in a 100 mm x 100 mm square format. We currently stock 2mm thick plates, but other thicknesses are available on request. Please get in touch with us.
