Good thermal stability
The quartz glass thermal expansion coefficient is extremely small, can withstand the temperature changes, the quartz glass is heated to 1100 degrees Celsius, the water will not burst into the room.
Good light transmission performance
The quartz glass has better transmittance in the whole spectrum range from ultraviolet to infrared, and the transmittance of visible light is above 93%. Especially in the ultraviolet spectrum region, the maximum transmittance is above 80.
Good electrical insulation
The resistance of quartz glass is equal to ten thousand times of that of ordinary glass. It is an excellent insulating material. It has good insulation performance even at high temperature.
Because of its excellent physical and chemical properties, quartz glass has been widely used in many fields, such as electric light source, semiconductor, optical communication, military industry, metallurgy, building material, chemical, mechanical, electric power, environmental protection and so on.
