SUPRAX® 8488 Borosilicate glass

The specially developed SUPRAX® 8488 borosilicate glass used for the MAXOS® sight glasses guarantees a superior chemical resistance. The low expansion of the glass combined with thermal prestressing creates a high resistance to sudden temperatures changes.

It depends on the proportion: The high amount of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and boric acid (B2O3) characterizes this type as a glass former. The proportion of boric acid influences the glass properties in a specific way: We use a proportion of only 11.5 %. This makes it more stable in comparison to glasses with an even higher boric acid content. In addition, the embedding in the structural network ensures extremely high chemical resistance.

The homogeneous distribution of the thermal prestressing ensures increased breaking strength.
