Low expansion glass, Borosilicate Glass for 3D Printer
Borosilicate has excellent transmission over the visible and NIR wavelengths working from 310nm to 2700nm. The surface quality is not as high as the BK7 versions.
Low-expansion Borosilicate (LEGB) Windows are very useful as windows in many harsh applications because borosilicate glass has excellent chemical and thermal-shock resistance and has a maximum working temperature of 500° C so are excellent for use in high powered light source applications or an excellent choice for cold and hot mirror substrates.
Borosilicate windows can also be a good substrate for optical flats as it has low expansion properties and therefore maintains its flatness in different environmental conditions.
High temperature load capacity:
- up to 550° C permanent load
- up to 600° C temporarily (< 10h)
